Released tools

OpenNPU

Local AI on the NPU of AMD Ryzen AI laptops, on Linux: chat, vision, voice and generation with its own open NPU engines.

Apache-2.0 license. Updated 2026-10.View repository

LLM Cost Watchdog

Cost monitoring for AI agents. Tracks pricing across providers, enforces budget ceilings and detects runaway loops before they run overnight.

MIT license. Updated 2026-04.View repository

CLI Usage

A desktop tray indicator that shows Claude Code and Codex usage limits at a glance.

MIT license. Updated 2026-10.View repository

Experiments

Local inference on consumer NPUs

OpenNPU is the published part. Related benchmarking of tokens per second per watt and a custom matrix-multiply engine for the same hardware exist as working code but are not yet public.

Research. Numbers will be published with exact test conditions or not at all.

Agent-driven playtesting

Scripted agents played and reported on Cellblock campaigns to find bugs and pacing problems before human review. Reports are kept with the project, not published.

Research, internal. Limitations: one game, one reviewer rubric.

Publishing workflow

Radar

A Persian-first site where agents write a daily AI digest and a second agent checks every item against its source. The site shows a stale notice when the last run is old.

Published. Machine-written, agent-reviewed, no human editor on each item.Visit the site
