I built a red-team scanner for MCP servers. Then I pointed it at the real ones. The Model Context Protocol lets an AI agent connect to external tools: a filesystem, GitHub, Slack, a database. Each server an agent connects to advertises a list of to...

I've been building GhostLM — a decoder-only transformer trained from scratch in PyTorch on cybersecurity data. No pretrained weights, every component hand-written. A few weeks ago I published a post about fixing a leaky train/val split that made my ...

What I Learned Building a Cybersecurity LLM From Scratch: 30,000 Steps, 3 Data Rewrites, and One Capacity Ceiling I started building GhostLM thinking the hard part would be the transformer architecture. I was wrong. The architecture took one day. T...

I've been building GhostLM for the past few months — a decoder-only transformer trained entirely from scratch in PyTorch on cybersecurity data. No pretrained weights, no HuggingFace wrappers. Every component hand-written. Phase 1 looked promising. Af...
