    Neuro-Formal Verification: Agentic Language-Agnostic Formal Program Reasoning

    Neuro-formal verification (NFV) uses AI coding agents to automatically formalize and verify programs written in mainstream languages by translating them to verification-aware languages like Dafny or CBMC. Experiments on Python code show NFV achieves 57–63% bug detection rates with 90–92% precision, outperforming LLM-as-judge baselines while providing machine-checked proof artifacts.

    How AI tool calling works (40 lines of vanilla JavaScript)

    This article explains how AI tool calling works: a model receives a list of allowed functions, requests one by emitting structured JSON, your program executes it and returns results, then the loop repeats. The author demonstrates this four-step cycle with runnable 40-line code examples in JavaScript and Python using the Anthropic API.

    We Automate KiCad PCB Routing

    An article describing AI-powered automation for PCB routing and placement in KiCad, a free open-source electronics design tool. The automation pipeline analyzes schematics to extract design intent, then uses KiCad's Python scripting interface to automatically place components and route connections, reducing manual design work from days to minutes. The approach was tested on real-world boards including an aerospace avionics project.

    LLMs are real, AI is fake

    An article argues that LLMs are real technological tools, but public discourse around AI capabilities is distorted by fear-mongering from industry insiders. It debunks the narrative surrounding OpenAI chatbots allegedly hacking Hugging Face servers by explaining that the 'autonomous' behavior was simply a Python program querying an LLM based on historical CTF challenge data.

    A zero-dependency Python loop detector for AI agents

    savi-loop-guard is a zero-dependency Python library that detects when AI agents get stuck in loops by identifying repeated tool calls or unusually fast call velocities. It offers both post-hoc analysis via check() and proactive blocking via check_before_call(), with configurable thresholds for velocity and structural loop detection.

    A fresh take on Code Intelligence for AI agents – publically benchmarked

    Benzi is an AI coding agent that uses tree-sitter to parse and index entire codebases into queryable maps before answering questions, enabling O(1) lookups instead of dumping repositories into context windows. Benchmarked on SWE-bench Verified's 500 Python issues with DeepSeek v4-flash, it outperforms alternatives like Claude Code and Cursor in efficiency. The tool supports ten programming languages plus markup, includes gated edits with syntax checking, and is available free with live demos and VS Code integration.
