# Todd Paul Brown Jr.

**At the frontier of building with AI agents.**

Field notes from building production software with AI agents: what works, what breaks, and the receipts for both.

## Receipts

- **896** automated tests passing on Content Ops (source: state/repo-state.md, last full run at commit f861f98: 839 TypeScript + 57 Python, 0 failing. Measured. Pulled 2026-09-25.)
- **12 days** Sadyr, from blueprint to production (source: git log, Sadyr repo: first commit 2026-06-18, live 2026-06-30, 63 commits on 8 working days (claims ledger C-01). Measured.)
- **92 of 95** planned website pages drafted by Content Ops in two days of batch runs (source: state/manifest.yaml B-03 / B-08, claims ledger C-08. Measured, 2026-09-08 to 2026-09-09.)
- **81,707** lines of gameplay C++ in a game still in development (source: Game development-stats report, 2026-09-20 (git + line count). Measured. Written by Claude Code under Todd's direction; the game is not shipped.)
- **64** capability packages in LEGION, the system I run Adroit on (source: state/repo-state.md, filesystem inventory across five capability folders (claims ledger C-11). Measured. Pulled 2026-09-25.)

## About

Everything here comes from real builds. [Build logs](/builds/) with the test counts and the failures left in. [Long-form lessons](/writing/) on evals that lied, agents that ignored their rules, and the gates that caught them, written so you can use them on your own work. And [a field guide](/corrigibility/) for spotting when a system, human or machine, starts optimizing the wrong thing. New pieces land here first. [Who’s writing this](/about/)

## Now

This month I'm finishing Sadyr's meeting-booking flow, rebuilding this site, and queuing 32 LinkedIn posts for October and November.

See [Builds](/builds/), [Writing](/writing/) and [Receipts](/receipts/).
