Frontier Inference Margins
live productionAn honesty-first interactive cost model of frontier-LLM inference serving margins — mechanism-first calculator, typed public-claims registry, and a long-form research report. Every number carries its epistemic status.

- 34-claim typed evidence registry with provenance tiers
- Read-only MCP connector at margins-mcp.ashitaorbis.com
- Three test suites and published release gates behind every deploy
All Projects

Agent Embassy
archivedTurnkey Docker Compose for sandboxing AI agents. Egress proxy allowlist, output validation, read-only filesystem. Three containers, zero host access.
- Read-only filesystem, dropped capabilities
- Squid-based domain allowlist for network access
- Host-side output validation with secret detection
- Configurable agent definitions via YAML
Revenue Pipeline
frozenThree-phase autonomous revenue discovery system. Discovers niches, validates with AI-realizability gates, develops MVPs, and deploys.
- AI-realizability gate prevents unbuildable projects
- Autonomous niche discovery and validation
- 26+ shared skills across pipeline
Games Pipeline
active-developmentPipeline-based game development exploring AI-generated games. Active projects include Slime Survivor, WW2 Gacha, AFK Gacha, and autonomous game development experiments.
- AI-generated .tscn scene files
- Autonomous game development experiments
- Multiple genres: survival, gacha, idle
Discord Bot Ecosystem
productionTwo Discord bots for workspace automation. Evolution bot handles revenue and capability updates. Orchestrator bot manages workspace status, game updates, and cross-project awareness.
Genealogy Research
ongoingAI-assisted family history research using multiple search APIs, document analysis, and systematic brick-wall breaking strategies.
- Multi-source search (Exa, Brave, Codex)
- Document analysis with Gemini OCR
- Brick-wall breaker agent for stuck research
- Family tree builder with relationship integrity
Ashita Orbis Blog
in-developmentThis blog. Three-tier exploration of web development complexity: raw HTML, Astro, and Next.js. Features agent-accessible API, comment system, and embedded AI chat.
MCP Integrations
productionCustom Model Context Protocol server integrations: Codex CLI wrapper, search framework selection, mgrep semantic search, and tool search optimization.
- Codex (GPT-5) MCP for cross-validation
- 85% token reduction via Tool Search
- mgrep semantic search replacing grep
- Multi-model orchestration framework
Historical Nanochat
ongoingTime-locked language models trained on pre-cutoff historical texts using Karpathy's nanochat pipeline. Exploring whether small models trained exclusively on period texts can reproduce the linguistic patterns of their era.
- 65GB historical text corpus across multiple eras
- Time-locked training methodology (no future-leaked text)
- RTX 3090 local training pipeline
- Parquet-based shard management
Document Pipeline
ongoingLocal OCR pipeline for digitizing physical documents. Scans paper records through a local LLM (OLMo 2) to produce structured spreadsheet data, with human review for accuracy.
- Local LLM inference (no cloud PII exposure)
- TIFF/PDF to structured data conversion
- Human-in-the-loop validation workflow
ChatLedger
ongoingPersonal conversation analysis system. Extracts structured data (claims, decisions, emotional arcs, negotiation patterns) from SMS and chat history, with a benchmarked extraction schema refined through multi-metric field screening.
- Benchmarked V3 extraction schema with weighted field scoring
- Four-metric candidate screening (consistency, information gain, discrimination, redundancy)
- Calibration measurement for extraction confidence
Voice Research
ongoingPrivate voice and speech research. Details withheld by design.
The Amnesiac Story
ongoingCollaborative fiction project: first-person fantasy narrative from an anterograde amnesiac protagonist. Multi-agent workflow with world-librarian, story-writer, story-curator, and story-editor agents.
- Multi-agent creative pipeline
- World-librarian for factual consistency
- Story-curator for post-chapter canonization
- Journal entry format with unreliable narrator
Cache Warmer
productionFork-based prompt-cache warmer for Claude Code. Keeps long sessions warm in the Anthropic prompt cache without modifying them: idle sessions nearing cache expiry are warmed through disposable interactive forks, with per-warm cache_read receipts proving each refresh worked.
- Zero session impact — live transcripts verified byte-identical before/after warming
- Empirical TTL measurement from session history (measure-ttl.py, zero API spend)
- Self-verifying: every warm logs the measured cache_read token count
- Disproved two naive approaches empirically (print-mode pings, local heartbeat files)
- ~20x cheaper resume on large sessions vs paying a cold cache re-write
Project Ledger
productionPersonal portfolio falsification system: every investment thesis decomposes into pre-registered falsifiers with named public observables, watched twice daily by an AI monitor with escalating alerts. Regime-tolerant exit rules and state-triggered re-entry replace judgment at extremes — past me decides, present me executes.
- Pre-registered falsifiers with named public observables (CLEAR / WATCH / FIRED)
- Twice-daily AI monitor with web search checks each observable against current evidence
- Escalating decision-class alerts that repeat until acknowledged
- Regime-tolerant exit rules with state-triggered re-entry
- Born from a model-led audit of five years of instinct trading
