James C. Young

AI Infrastructure Builder — I build the systems that make AI agents work in production: orchestration runtimes, coordination protocols, budget controls, and resilience patterns.

17 years in manufacturing operations. Self-taught engineer. Now building production infrastructure for AI systems.


Flagship

AI exocortex and multi-agent orchestration monorepo. Three packages: Core (personal AI with learning system and proactive engine), Forge (workflow runtime with 10 agent archetypes, budget enforcement, quality gates, and checkpoints), and Quorum (coordination protocol for parallel agents, live on PyPI).

9,300+ tests · 96% coverage · Python · PyO3 · MIT

Offensive security operations platform. Recon, scanning, vulnerability analysis, and reporting — orchestrated through structured pipelines with full audit trails.

5,000+ tests · Python · MIT

Local-first document intelligence. NER, classification, OCR, full-text search, forensics timeline, and entity graph analysis — all on SQLite with zero cloud dependencies.

391 tests · 99% coverage · Python · FastAPI · MIT


Dev Tools

Six CLI tools for AI-assisted development:

Tool What Tests
promptctl Claude API toolkit — prompt engineering, code review, doc intelligence 286
memboot Zero-infra persistent memory for LLMs — SQLite + TF-IDF vector search 285
claudemd-forge CLAUDE.md generator/auditor for AI coding agents 259
ai-spend AI API cost aggregator — Anthropic + OpenAI billing in one view 222
agent-audit Workflow YAML cost estimator + linter for agent pipelines 193
mcp-manager MCP server manager — discover, monitor, manage across IDEs 139
