I have been working on a set of tools and standard formulas that can be applied to these cases and demonstrate a more accurate view of a team's or department's overall ROI. The plan is to open-source the bulk of it, but provide a hosted service for folks who don't want to manage it themselves. I follow a bunch of gaming rss feeds just to keep up with what’s new in the industry. Figured I’d take those and turn them into a news aggregator to put them all into one place. Threw in some game deals/affiliate to pay the web hosting bills (hasn’t paid for anything yet, lol). At its core, it uses quadtrees, and has affordances for arbitrary topologies.

(a little slow to load~) A text-based song format for generating music. I wanted to be able to create a song entirely using text, so I created a TOML-based format for doing so, and gave it most of the features you would find in a DAW. Since the format can be described in a SKILL file, AI can be used to write a song in this format, which can then be converted to audio. Part of my job is to approve / reject MCP servers based on how secure they are and whether they are suitable for use in an enterprise environment. I was tired of my team being called the bottleneck to AI adoption, so I set out to automate the whole process. I periodically collect the MCP servers and every new version from the Official MCP registry and assign them a score based on 29 distinct criteria like runtime guardrails (e.g. destructive tools, over broad permissions, rug pulls), SAST scans and transport & trust model. As a result of this exercise, I found that 1 in every 10 MCP servers is pretty much unusable (score 40/100 or below). 18% of the popular MCP servers with 1000+ GitHub stars contain one or more security issues. 184 servers to date have changed their tool definitions after publication, which may indicate a "rug pull" attack.
