Agent infrastructure, research systems, and engineering tools.
Products, engineering tools, and research prototypes. Explore what each does, how far it has been demonstrated, and which artifacts you can inspect.
Products
Things people outside the lab can use.
Tooling
What the lab builds to build with.
Research
Hypotheses under test. These are not products, and the entries say what has not been shown.
- 07SemaAsk a model and prove a property, as equal peers.
Scope & limitations
A language, compiler and runtime exploring how model calls, typed contracts and capability policy can live in the same program as ordinary computation. The Rust reference implementation includes a source-built CLI, an interpreter, an opt-in bytecode VM, editor tooling, bounded symbolic mathematics and local model inference. Developers can run retrieval-and-reasoning examples and inspect execution traces; the larger goal is to make an agent’s authority, uncertainty and evidence visible to the language rather than hide them in surrounding prompt code.
Pre-production: implemented slices, not a finished language. Production packaging, performance qualification, platform coverage and stronger isolation remain release blockers. Model judgments and passing tests are not formal proofs.
- 08Sema SearchA deep-research stack written from scratch in Sema.
Scope & limitations
A research application written in Sema: choose a single search, a fact-extraction pass or a deeper investigation, then return cited facts, a summary or a structured report. It can also work from evidence supplied by the caller instead of searching again. A CLI and JSON API expose the workflow, with Markdown and optional PDF output. The deep mode tracks open questions and a statistical confidence estimate, stopping at an objective, confidence, time or iteration limit. That estimate controls the search loop; it does not certify the answer. Building the application also drove fixes in Sema’s generation, HTTP, configuration and citation machinery.
Experimental. Build the Sema compiler from source first; real generation and live web search require separate configuration. The opt-in offline demo uses a fixed HRV corpus, not evidence for arbitrary questions. PDF rendering also needs Python-backed rendering dependencies.
- 12SpiralOne small block, iterated. Each pass folded into a new subspace.
Scope & limitations
A PyTorch model that reuses one small transformer block across many iterations instead of giving every layer separate weights. Each pass rotates into a different latent subspace and receives the input again, testing whether more computation can substitute for a larger learned core. Researchers can vary loop depth, distil a teacher model and compare stability and task performance through Dentate. The momentum update has a reversible formulation, but that mathematical property alone is not evidence of constant-memory training or large-model-level capability.
A research prototype, not a production model. The roughly one-million-parameter figure counts the recurrent core, not the whole model. Broad-pool 100× knowledge compression remains unsupported; narrow-domain competence and reasoning depth are the hypotheses under test.
- 06DentateGauntlet tests; Dentate trains.
Scope & limitations
Training and evaluation tooling for small-model research. Runs retain resolved configuration, checkpoints and lineage, with commands to resume, fork and sweep experiments and a dashboard to inspect them. Alongside a real Apple Silicon fine-tuning path, the Spiral harness explores teacher distillation, narrow reasoning tasks and cross-window memory. The longer-term loop is Gauntlet scores → Dentate trains → Gauntlet re-scores; the fake-backed curriculum exercises that design without establishing that autonomous continual learning works.
Alpha, with two evidence levels: the broad Gauntlet curriculum is a fake-backed development pipeline, while MLX LoRA fine-tuning and the separate Spiral training/reasoning harness have real-model paths. Simulated curriculum gains are not measured improvements in a deployed model.
