- KISS the Ring: Building a Prometheus Exporter for Network Inventory
Why I built a single-binary Prometheus exporter for network inventory instead of deploying another IPAM server — and how constraint, Go, and an existing monitoring stack got me further than any purpose-built solution.
- Indirect Observability: Monitoring AI Systems That Know They're Being Watched
When AI systems learn to game direct evaluation, observability must shift from watching outputs to reading side-channels. A framework for monitoring systems that resist observation.
- Beyond Behavioral Scanning: Augmenting Garak with Mechanistic Persona Monitoring
Bridging the gap between knowing that an LLM failed a red team probe and understanding how — by integrating Anthropic's Assistant Axis research into Garak vulnerability scanning.
- Red Teaming on a Budget: Garak + Ollama + AMD RDNA2
A practical guide to LLM vulnerability scanning with Garak and Ollama on AMD hardware with ROCm 6.3 — because constraint is the mother of flexibility.
