## What I do

I design and ship AI agent systems and MCP servers that run in production —
including against my own money. Agent setups, Model Context Protocol servers,
and the guardrail architecture that makes autonomous systems safe to trust:
approval gates, circuit breakers, signed callbacks, budget caps.

Invoices in USDT or fiat.

## Selected work

### Voluum MCP server + 11-agent operations layer (2025–present)
Production system running my own affiliate operation.
- 43 MCP tools across 9 categories (campaigns, A/B path optimization,
  offers, landers, traffic sources, reporting, conversions, affiliate
  networks, live KPI beacons) — Python, FastMCP 2
- 11-agent DSPy orchestration layer: task decomposition, write-approval
  gate (no agent spends money without human sign-off), circuit breaker,
  per-source rate limiters, HMAC-signed Telegram approvals
- 293 automated tests; resilient API client (401 auto-refresh, exponential
  backoff); TTL caching; silent telemetry for workflow discovery
- Deployed hardened (systemd, nginx), live SSE dashboards, running against
  real ad spend today

### Agentsmith Inc. (2022–2024)
Founded a Delaware AI company building an agent studio for non-technical
creatives — before the GPT moment made "agents" a category. Platform built;
smithing services had paying customers. Wrote The Agentsmith's Code, the
manifesto this practice still runs on: "An Agentsmith makes support systems
for humans, not replacements for them." I own the trademark; the demonym
is open-source.

### Nester (ongoing)
Founder. Mobile-first apartment rental platform for the Israeli market with
native roommate compatibility matching.

## Stack

**AI/agents:** MCP protocol design (client + server), DSPy, agent
orchestration, prompt architecture, guardrail systems
**Languages:** Python (FastMCP, httpx, pydantic, Starlette), TypeScript
(Cloudflare Workers, Astro), SQL/Cypher
**Infrastructure:** Cloudflare (Workers, Pages), Neo4j, Redis, systemd/nginx
deployment, Telegram bot integrations
**Before the agents:** 12 years across copywriting, design, web development,
marketing automation, and crypto — in that order. Each layer feeds the next.

## Timeline

- Age 12: first bots (mIRC). Nobody called them agents yet.
- 2013–2022: copywriting → design → web dev → marketing automation → crypto
- 2022–2024: Agentsmith Inc. — first AI company, agent studio, the Code
- 2022–present: building AI agent systems, four years and counting
- 2025–present: production MCP tooling against live ad spend

## The 15-minute call

You bring the operation. You leave knowing exactly what AI can — and
cannot — do for your business, and the trajectory to get it done.
