Projects

Ideas become clearer when they are built, tested and seen.

A personal Antarctic research atlas, AMPI’s approach to personal computing, contributions to open-source tools, and earlier experiments in geospatial computing and AI. Follow each project or concept to its source, published release or pull request.

AMPI / Ideas in practice

Concept note · v0.1 ·

AI as a coordinator.
Tools as infrastructure.

AI-Mediated Personal Infrastructure

AI 中介式个人基础设施

Keep the software that already does its job well. Let AI understand the task and decide which existing system should do the work.

AMPI brings software, files, devices and platforms together around a person’s goals. Conventional programs maintain persistent state, enforce permissions, verify results and support recovery. Direct interfaces and established commands come first where suitable; GUI agents are an optional channel.

Developed through my practice in AcademicWorkspace, this is a specific architectural synthesis and a published concept note. The private implementation is described through a sanitized case.

  • Reuse specialized tools
  • Preserve state
  • Scope authority
  • Verify outcomes

Open-source contributions

Small changes.
Shared tools.

Contributing to the software I use, from focused performance work to the boundaries around AI agents.

PR #911

Merged

Token Monitor

Less redundant work for named Codex sessions.

Contributed a focused performance improvement that skips T3 fallback-title lookups when a Codex session already has a generated title, with regression tests for mixed and fully named sessions.
