Custom Agents
A focused assistant or operator built around one real job, with tools, limits, escalation, and ownership made explicit.
JOSH STEVENSON FOUNDER / AI SYSTEMS ENGINEER
I build practical agents, automation, knowledge systems, integrations, and provide focused technical consulting around the work your business already does.
WHAT I CAN BUILD
You do not need a perfect software stack or a large first project. The best starting point is often one repeated task with a clear owner.
A focused assistant or operator built around one real job, with tools, limits, escalation, and ownership made explicit.
Repeated follow-up, reporting, document, intake, or coordination work mapped before any part of it is automated.
Source-aware answers across the documents, policies, notes, and operational context your team is allowed to use.
Carefully bounded connections between AI workflows and the software, files, APIs, or local systems you already depend on.
A PRACTICAL FIRST PROJECT
Examples include missed inquiry follow-up, repeated reports, scattered operational knowledge, document intake, or data that must move carefully between tools.
A rough description, example, or screen share is enough.
We name what the system handles, what stays human, and what it must refuse.
You know the deliverable, acceptance test, dependencies, and limits before a build starts.
PUBLIC WORK
My public work spans local AI memory, agent graphs, claim and execution evidence, Rust infrastructure, compression research, and a customized Hermes Agent path.
Teknium, creator of Hermes Agent, publicly highlighted Josh’s demonstration of a RecursiveIntell-enhanced Hermes setup.
This is a public interaction around Josh’s engineering work, not a customer testimonial, partnership, or product endorsement.
START HERE
I’ll help you decide whether it needs a workflow map, a small pilot, a knowledge system, or technical consulting.
