A PERSONAL COLLECTION
Hi, I'm Ashton.
Welcome to my desktop.
I build software and agent workflows. Explore a research workspace, measured poker experiments, and the systems behind my projects.

ABOUT / PROJECT INDEX
Hi, I'm Ashton.
I build software and agent workflows. This desktop collects independent projects, research, writing, and earlier website concepts. The case studies describe the systems and distinguish demonstrations from measured results.
Projects
01 / PRIVATE SYSTEM
Opportunity Engine
I created Engine to scan and classify opportunities and coordinate bounded work. For a competition, an Engine run produced Keepout, a macOS tool for checking permission profiles with disposable probes and controls. The sources remain private; this is not a claim of full end-to-end autonomy.
02 / CODEX PLUGIN
Roadmap
A skill-driven project workflow built to carry decisions, requirements, evidence, and checkpoints across sessions. It uses local .roadmap/ records to make work easier to resume.
03 / RESEARCH DESK
CASE
A linked workspace I built for researching market activity, ownership, and participants without jumping between separate tools. This portfolio demonstration uses fictional data and explains design and engineering decisions.
04 / SIMULATION
Relay
A wallet research and paper copy-trading workflow exploring what a later buyer might receive. The walkthrough uses synthetic data and executes no trades.
05 / RESEARCH
Poker Arena
Game AI research exploring model evaluation and recorded results, with the limits of those measurements stated alongside them. The bot is coming soon.
06 / PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Jewel AI
A product for exploring jewelry concepts through AI-generated visual directions. The overview links to its live site; customer outcomes presented there have not been independently verified in this portfolio.
More to explore
The essays offer perspectives on AI and business. The archive contains earlier website design concepts, presented as concepts rather than live client services.

AI DESIGN / PRODUCT
Jewel AI
A product for exploring jewelry concepts through AI-generated visual directions. The live site presents the product and a studio interface.
The live site describes additional capabilities and customer outcomes. Those claims have not been independently verified here.
AGENT WORKFLOW / PRIVATE PROJECT
Opportunity Engine
I created Engine, a local system for scanning and classifying opportunities and coordinating bounded work. It records opportunity data and uses workflows that combine worker and human steps.
One output: Keepout
For a competition, an Engine run produced Keepout. Keepout is a macOS command-line tool for checking Codex permission profiles with disposable canary probes and control checks. It distinguishes invalid or unmeasured results from observed outcomes.
This example shows an output of the system, not a claim that the full process ran autonomously. Keepout’s checks are scoped observations, not certification or Linux coverage. The project sources remain private.

Working with AshtonSystems / Software
Systems for
complex work.
I design and build agent systems, research tools, and custom software.
Agent systems
Software that brings AI into a useful working process.
Tools for research and recurring work, with clear controls, visible progress, and room for human judgement.
Custom software
Research workspaces, internal tools, and interactive software built around a specific problem.
Interfaces, data handling, simulation, and the logic that connects them.
Websites & interfacesI also design and build websites.
