FAQ

Questions I get a lot

What do you write about on this site?

Long-form model write-ups in the Inside LLMs series — I interview an assistant, audit what it claims, and cross-check against published papers — plus MCP server tutorials, agent tooling guides, and shorter notes on models and developer workflows.

Who is this for?

Developers, founders, and curious readers who want plain-English LLM deep-dives, copy-paste MCP setups, and tooling notes they can use today — not another pile of buzzwords.

Where do you work?

I am a software engineer at Inncelerator by day, with 7+ years building web applications, APIs, automation workflows, and AI-powered tools. This site is where I share practical AI and developer notes in public.

What is your technical background?

Seven-plus years as a software engineer and AI developer — web apps, APIs, automation, and AI-powered tools. Stack includes PHP, Node.js, Golang, and Python, plus hands-on work with modern AI models, MCP servers, and developer tooling.

Can you help with an AI or web project?

Yes — reach out via the contact page if you want a second opinion on tools, help with automation or AI workflows, a write-up collaboration, or shipping a web product.
