What We're Building
We don't just advise on systems — we build and operate them. These are products under active development at Barnett Studios.
Meridian
LiveA multi-strategy, market-neutral crypto trading system. Two hedged strategies from day one — basis trading and perpetual funding — with unified circuit breakers protecting everything. Capital safety is the product; profit is a by-product.
Ink Abbey
Coming SoonYour draft holds a masterwork; Ink Abbey is the editorial intelligence to find it. One manuscript, eight perspectives — structure, character, dialogue, theme, pacing, world, prose and style. They don’t write your book. They show you what isn’t working in it, and why. Manuscripts are encrypted at rest, with post-quantum cryptography readiness built in, so a novel written today stays safe in twenty years.
Open Source
An interface-bounded component family for agentic coding harnesses. Each is a standalone tool with its own contract, usable in any harness — not a plugin for a framework you have to adopt first. Together they form an architecture: context goes in, integrity is checked, evidence is kept, work is planned, and work is executed under isolation.
cxpak
↗Context. Indexes a repo with tree-sitter across 43 languages and emits token-budgeted context bundles — a briefing packet instead of a flashlight in a dark room.
attestr
↗Integrity. Promise-Theory verification — assesses a turn's output against the promises its agent declared, emitting findings plus a per-agent trust delta. Telemetry, never fed back into the live loop.
commitward
↗Integrity. A deterministic, fail-open human-sign-off gate. Blocks a high-stakes commit only when a guarded change fires and nobody acknowledged it — everything else passes through.
corpus
↗Evidence. 250 RED-baseline seed projects across six languages — with the validity census establishing which 230 actually function as a measurement instrument.
abproof
↗Evidence. Offline A/B change-validation for a whole harness — seed-blocked pairing, statistical gating, and an UNDERPOWERED verdict for a battery that could not have detected an effect.
slicr
↗Plan → execute seam. Decomposes a task into a granular execution manifest — single-region nodes, each with a discriminating acceptance test authored up front. The schema is the contract.
cascadr
↗Executor: routing. A cost-ordered, fail-open provider cascade. Cheapest-capable rung first — and it never proxies a subscription hop, because that would break prompt-cache integrity.
cordon
↗Executor: isolation. Runs one command in a hardened, ephemeral, network-isolated container, so a runaway process becomes a bounded, classified failure instead of a hang.
Other Projects
PixCrunch
↗Privacy-first image compression PWA. All processing on-device, no uploads, no telemetry.
MFX Starter
↗Production-ready microfrontends with Module Federation. React host, Angular and Svelte providers.
mticky
↗TUI stock monitor with real-time data, custom themes, and persistent watchlists.
