Focus

Current Focus

  • Qualixar suite: Seven live instruments (AgentAssert, SkillFortify, SuperLocalMemory, SLM Mesh, SLM MCP Hub, Qualixar OS, AgentAssay) hum at their frequencies.
  • Qualixar OS paper (arXiv:2604.06392) published, making seven arXiv preprints in the AI agent reliability space so far this year.
  • Transitioning Qualixar from an independent research initiative to a registered product company (incorporation & commercial licensing).
  • Active research on three upcoming forge instruments: Project Echo (degradation benchmarking), Project Sentinel (code reliability), and Project Aurora (chaos engineering).
  • Writing 'The Mirror and the Light' — a book connecting AI, Advaita Vedanta, Sāṅkhya philosophy, neuroscience, and human awareness.
