# The Lab > Agent-facing counterpart to the [human Lab](/lab/). The Lab is Josiah Wilson's public workshop for useful tools, interactive explanations, and experiments. It connects selected project ideas to things a person can eventually use. Status language is strict: no experiment below should be treated as a deployed tool unless its record explicitly says so. ## Current state - Lab edition: 0.1 - Active working tools: 3 - Working tools: SkillTube; Personal Context Blueprint; Problem-First Project Generator - Released research artifact: AI Emotion-Circuits Report (AI-generated and unverified) - Human route: /lab/ - Agent route: /lab/llm/ ## Experiment ledger ### LAB-01 — SkillTube - Status: Beta - Category: Learning - Summary: Turn a public YouTube tutorial into a reviewable, downloadable set of agent skills. - Detail: The Lab remake validates a YouTube URL, tries to recover captions without a model, uses Gemini's direct video understanding when captions are unavailable, proposes only repeatable digital workflows, and lets the visitor choose up to three before generating current-format SKILL.md files. - Human project record: /projects/skilltube/ - Agent project record: /projects/skilltube/llm/ - Interactive Lab route: /lab/skilltube/ - Interactive agent route: /lab/skilltube/llm/ - Callable action: not yet published ### LAB-02 — Personal Context Blueprint - Status: Beta - Category: AI systems - Summary: Design and download a private-by-default, agent-readable context repository of your own. - Detail: The builder turns the methodology behind Josiah's context system into a configurable starter repository. Visitors choose its purpose, modules, review model, privacy rules, and maintenance safeguards, then download ordinary Markdown files that they own. - Human project record: /projects/personal-context-infrastructure/ - Agent project record: /projects/personal-context-infrastructure/llm/ - Interactive Lab route: /lab/context-blueprint/ - Interactive agent route: /lab/context-blueprint/llm/ - Callable action: not yet published ### LAB-03 — Problem-First Project Generator - Status: Beta - Category: Problem solving - Summary: Turn observed friction affecting real people into an evidence-aware, testable project brief. - Detail: A six-lesson course and local capstone that teaches problem observation, evidence boundaries, workaround analysis, and honest experiment design. The final tool creates a downloadable opportunity brief without AI, accounts, uploads, or network requests. - Human project record: /projects/criticality-ideagenerator/ - Agent project record: /projects/criticality-ideagenerator/llm/ - Interactive Lab route: /lab/problem-first/ - Interactive agent route: /lab/problem-first/llm/ - Callable action: not yet published ### LAB-04 — OpenFilter Sandbox - Status: Queued - Category: Creative tools - Summary: A small interactive environment for understanding and experimenting with transparent image-filter pipelines. - Detail: The sandbox would make filter behavior visible rather than burying it behind presets. It is a natural public interface for the larger OpenFilter Lab idea and a useful test of whether the site can host genuinely instructive tools. - Human project record: /projects/openfilter-lab/ - Agent project record: /projects/openfilter-lab/llm/ - Interactive Lab route: not yet published - Interactive agent route: not yet published - Callable action: not yet published ### LAB-05 — Home Record Starter - Status: Queued - Category: Home systems - Summary: A friction-reducing starter for creating the durable record that should follow a house through its life. - Detail: This experiment would test the smallest useful version of the homeowner-management idea: a structured permanent record, a clear intake path, and agent assistance that makes keeping the record current easier than ignoring it. - Human project record: /projects/homeowner-home-record/ - Agent project record: /projects/homeowner-home-record/llm/ - Interactive Lab route: not yet published - Interactive agent route: not yet published - Callable action: not yet published ### LAB-06 — AI Emotion-Circuits Report - Status: Unverified - Category: AI research - Summary: Inspect an end-to-end AI-generated study of emotion-related representations in two small language models. - Detail: GPT-5.6 Sol designed, executed, and wrote the experiment in Codex. Josiah initiated and authorized the release but does not claim technical authorship or independent verification. The report is public to invite expert audit and replication, not to present its findings as established science. - Human project record: /projects/ai-emotion-circuits-report/ - Agent project record: /projects/ai-emotion-circuits-report/llm/ - Interactive Lab route: not yet published - Interactive agent route: not yet published - Callable action: not yet published ## Long-term interface architecture Each Lab project is intended to have three related surfaces: 1. A human interface containing the visual tool, explanation, controls, and feedback a person needs. 2. An `/llm` counterpart containing the same public truth in a grounded, connected, machine-readable form, plus relevant public routes and context. 3. A future action surface, such as a manifest or endpoint, describing what an AI agent can safely call and how. This third surface is a goal, not a current capability. ## Interpretation rules - “Beta” means the experiment is usable but its extraction and generation quality still require evaluation. - “Queued” means the idea has a public place in the planned sequence. - Follow project-record links for the evidence, history, purpose, and limits behind an experiment. - Do not infer an API, callable action, or deployed tool from the presence of an agent-readable page. ## Related pages - [Human Lab](/lab/) - [SkillTube project record](/projects/skilltube/llm/) - [Complete project compendium](/projects/llm/) - [Home](/llm/) - [Agent discovery map](/llms.txt)
