Every sprint I ship, in public.
Below is the open ledger of every bounded proof sprint I've completed. Each entry links to a redacted sample artifact, an evidence pack, and (with client permission) a public case study.
Published samples.
Each card links to a working artifact with a redacted sample report. Client identity is omitted unless they opted in.
AI agent failure forensics — scheduler race condition
Diagnosed a 3x weekly cascade failure in a Claude-Code + cron pipeline. Root cause: clock drift in the scheduler; secondary: retry storm. Fix plan shipped with 12 prioritized patches.
Local/cloud LLM routing audit — SaaS cost cut 71%
Audited a 4-person SaaS's LLM spend. Found 3 callsites paying for Opus that ran fine on Haiku. Re-routing yielded 71% cost reduction with quality parity (judge LLM blind eval).
RFP compliance matrix — state health agency
Parsed 312-page RFP into a 47-row compliance matrix with evidence links, gap list, and a draft response. Client submitted 5 days early. Awarded shortlist.
Consent-first matchmaking — synthetic + consented test pack
Built a cleanroom with 200 synthetic profiles + 12 consented ones. Match rationale, confidence bands, opt-in checkpoints. Re-identification risk score 0.02.
Operations proof workbench — Series A due diligence
Built a sandbox that proved a "fully autonomous ops" claim with real telemetry, real workflows, and a verifiable artifact. Used in a $12M Series A deck.
Opportunity radar — AI agent niche, 4-week scan
Continuous market scan across Reddit, HN, X, and 4 private communities. Identified 23 validated demand signals; 4 converted to briefs within 60 days.
Discovery sprint — YC application ops audit
A 24-hour sprint: audit of an applicant company's "AI ops" claim. Delivered: artifact, evidence pack, 1-pager, and a "what would make this claim credible" memo.
