Zuke ❤️ Python 🐍
Zuke builds can now be written in typed Python.
A build is a class: targets are fields, and dependencies are references pyright checks, so a typo fails before anything runs. The same file generates your CI YAML and serves the build to agents over MCP.
The engine handles retries, caching, locks, durable runs, and 50+ typed tool wrappers. Zero runtime dependencies, MIT licensed.

Ello Ello!
I am looking for #opensource #rust freelance jobs. I have extensive experience profiling and optimizing rust codebase for performance(CPU time and memory). And I am interested in similar projects. e.g. #hpc. I am also fluent with #Python. Have intermediate skill with #CommonLisp. And I am familiar with C/C++.
Other than these, I work well with theories, even though I haven't got formal university degree. I can study and understand references, academic papers, RFCs, and I can also dive deep into source code of other softwares to find the answer I'm looking for.
I would be more interested if the project has got close ties with #AI and #ML. For instance, #MachineLearning inference or training engine would be very much interesting! If the project is about research, even better! Personally, I've been hanging around #GeneticProgramming last few years.
I am also interested in learning GPU Programming, C/C++ and #Julia if the project requires them.
I don't want any job from entities based in the US. Such as corporations, companies or organizations.
You can ping me here on Fedi or otherwise email me(address below) to get more information about what I've done. However, the best way to prove meself is doing a task.

🛠️ Tool
===================
ARTEX: autonomous penetration testing driven by LLM agents
ARTEX is an open source AI autonomous penetration testing system with a Go backend and a Next.js frontend. It is maintained as a public fork of the original ARTEX project by Autumn-27, with the Chinese-language source translated to English and released under AGPL-3.0. Straight disclosure: I have not run it personally. This is a read of the repository's own documentation.
What it does
The workflow is task-based. You define a task, the agent plans and executes sessions, and the UI logs tool calls per session. Around that core sit:
• An exploration graph showing how the agent moved through the target
• Findings and assets repositories
• An asset coverage graph with force-directed layout, tested nodes highlighted, collapse/expand per node
• Traffic recording, human-in-the-loop chat, agent management, and per-agent LLM configuration
• A dashboard with token usage and an activity stream
Human approval, not just autopilot
The interception approvals feature is the part worth attention. There are global approval records, in-task approval cards, and approval cards inside conversations, all expandable to full details. The detail view borrows the structure of the AegisHook approval details component. In practice this means agent actions can be gated behind explicit human confirmation instead of running blind.
Traffic capture extension
A bundled browser extension (Chrome/Edge, loaded unpacked) turns your own browsing into agent-visible evidence. You log into an authenticated target once, including captcha, email OTP, and 2FA, press Start capture on the tab, and then use the site normally. Text requests and responses are batched to POST /api/traffic/ingest, authenticated. Binary bodies (images, fonts) are skipped, bodies truncate at 256 KiB, and batches cap at 50 entries. Everything lands in the local traffic store, searchable and bindable to findings. This addresses the classic blocker for headless agents: they rarely survive captcha and 2FA.
Asset sync
Asset data syncs directly from ScopeSentry, per project or per task: domains, subdomains, IPs, ports, sites, and endpoints. Imports merge by company asset scope and flow into the asset graph for the agent to explore. That avoids duplicate collection if ScopeSentry already covers your footprint.
Implementation and setup
PostgreSQL is required. Exploration requires an LLM key, Anthropic or OpenAI, configurable in the UI. The install script offers an all-Docker path (docker compose up -d --build) or a local build of a single embedded Go binary. The web UI runs at localhost:8787 with first-time admin setup through /setup, using a one-time token printed in backend logs.
Use cases
• Pentest teams that want a self-hosted agent with approval gates and audit trails
• Authenticated-app testing where headless automation fails at 2FA
• Scoping runs fed by an existing ScopeSentry deployment
Limitations
No published success metrics against real targets, and autonomous test quality will depend heavily on the model, prompts, and task framing. The repo documents an approval mechanism but not how reliably the agent avoids destructive actions outside it. AGPL-3.0 has compatibility implications if you embed this into internal tooling. And the obvious one: an autonomous agent pointed at real infrastructure belongs inside written authorization and a tight scope. Validate in a lab before pointing it at production.

When I'm asked why OpenBSD is good and that I want to reply honestly, I have no argument.
From a technical point of view, I can't tell any strong benefits using OpenBSD, NetBSD or FreeBSD over Linux, although this doesn't mean they are bad.
It would be easy for me to be "cargo-culting" facts, being a "fanboy" or enumerating features that are exclusive to one (and they are rare, except if you are looking for the very very same feature!).
The truth is that what one OS will do better than an other, it will also do worse in another area.
It's important that we keep the BSD systems as relevant Linux alternatives: for software diversity, innovation and freedom of choice.

xcodestats 1.0 is out! It's a command-line tool, written in Rust, that counts the code, comment, blank, and shebang lines in a codebase by language. My last post about it was for version 0.7.0, so there's a lot that's changed since then.
My goal for 1.0 was to make Codestats the fastest and most accurate code counter around. I've successfully done this, with numbers to proove it.
Speed, with every tool counting the same files on Linux:
What's new since 0.7.0:
Prebuilt binaries for Linux, macOS, and Windows are on GitHub, each for x86-64 and ARM64. You can also run cargo install codestats, but the prebuilt binaries are faster because they use profile-guided optimization.

My goal for 1.0 was to make Codestats the fastest and most accurate code counter around. I've successfully done this, with numbers to proove it.
Speed, with every tool counting the same files on Linux:
- cpython: 18 ms. mezura takes 24, scc 51, and tokei 107.
- The Linux kernel, 63,738 files: 217 ms. mezura takes 238, scc 626, and tokei 1,106.
What's new since 0.7.0:
- cs diff compares line counts by language between git revisions.
- Code embedded in other languages is counted by its own language's rules: script and style elements in HTML, Vue, Svelte, and Astro, code blocks in Markdown, HTML in PHP, and more.
- Comment markers inside strings are ignored, Python docstrings count as comments, and heredocs, raw strings, and interpolated strings are read correctly.
- Generated files are detected by their headers and skipped by default.
- Linguist attributes in .gitattributes are respected.
- --git counts only the files git tracks.
- You can count several paths together, or read paths from standard input, as in git ls-files -z | cs -
- --ext counts only the extensions you ask for.
- It recognizes more than 560 languages, and detection is much better for extensions that several languages share, such as .h and .m.
- Starting with 1.0, JSON fields, CSV and TSV columns, and config file keys only change in a new major version.
Prebuilt binaries for Linux, macOS, and Windows are on GitHub, each for x86-64 and ARM64. You can also run cargo install codestats, but the prebuilt binaries are faster because they use profile-guided optimization.

📦 New FeedEcho destination: GitHub. One user asked for it, so here it is.
FeedEcho can now publish feed items as markdown files straight into a GitHub repo. Connect a repo with a fine-grained PAT, then set a file path template and body template per echo. Front matter renders like any other template text, so your feed's tags land in the file. Existing files update in place, never duplicated.
Self-host or use the hosted version: https://github.com/jcrabapple/feedecho and https://feedecho.net
Ich tüftle an einer Idee zur automatisierten #Spesenabrechnung:
Eine #WebApp für #Android und #iOS erfasst Belege als Foto oder PDF. Nach einer Bildvorverarbeitung extrahiert eine #KI die relevanten Daten. Nutzer prüfen und korrigieren das Ergebnis.
Die Korrekturen sollen per #LoRA-FineTuning zur Verbesserung der Erkennung beitragen, beispielsweise mit #Qwen. Am Ende stehen strukturierte Daten und ein Sammel-PDF für die Weiterverarbeitung.
Hat jemand Erfahrungen mit vergleichbaren Projekten oder Ideen dazu? #OpenSource #MachineLearning

@teotwaki @mczachurski I believe NLnet only funds one type of project in each segment so they can fund many types of projects, they have rejected my application for Sup too, because they have funded other messenger apps already.
