Lab

Things being tested before they earn a place in production. Statuses are honest — including the parked ones.

Claude Code

Active

Agentic coding as a daily workflow — repo-aware refactoring, migration tooling and review automation.

Progress Integrated into daily engineering work; measuring where it compounds.

“The interesting question isn't 'can it code' — it's which loops it can own end-to-end.”

MCP

Active

Model Context Protocol servers exposing internal systems to agents with scoped, auditable access.

Progress Toolkit of small servers in daily use; hardening auth patterns.

“Context is the moat. MCP is the plumbing for it.”

Agentic AI

Exploring

Multi-step agents for engineering chores: dependency upgrades, log triage, migration rehearsal.

Progress Prototypes for two internal workflows; evaluating reliability.

“Agents fail politely or fail loudly — designing for the second.”

Prompt Engineering

Active

Systematic prompt design for extraction and classification in finance documents.

Progress Eval harness with versioned prompts; regression-testing prompt changes.

“Prompts are code. Version them, test them, review them.”

OpenAI

Exploring

Structured outputs and tool-calling patterns for document-heavy enterprise pipelines.

Progress Comparative evals against Claude for extraction accuracy.

“Model choice is a per-workload decision, not a religion.”

Gemini

Exploring

Long-context document processing and multimodal invoice understanding.

Progress Early benchmarks on large document batches.

“Long context changes chunking strategy — sometimes to 'don't'.”

VEO

Paused

Generative video for internal demos and product walkthroughs.

Progress Proof-of-concept renders; parked until a real use case earns it.

“Cool ≠ useful. Parked honestly.”

Automation

Active

Small scripts that erase recurring toil — release notes, environment checks, data fixes.

Progress Growing internal toolbox; each tool saves minutes daily.

“The best automation is boring and runs forever.”
