The Hidden Cost of Non-Compliant MCP Servers
MCP compliance is not a checkbox — it is a direct economic and safety variable. This post quantifies how non-compliant MCP servers drain token budgets, trigger hallucination cascades, and open security holes, with cost models, attack vectors, and actionable recommendations.
96GB Mac Studio vs Windows PC: Multi-Agent LLM Orchestration on Real Hardware
I ran the same multi-agent collaboration task on a 96GB Mac Studio with 4 local LLMs and a Windows PC with 3. Same models, same task, different hardware....
Fine-Tuning Local LLMs: Methods, Tools, and What It Actually Costs
Pre-trained models get you 80% of the way. Fine-tuning closes the gap for your specific domain, tone, and task patterns. This post covers the practical methods, open-source tools,...
Running LLMs Locally: A Practical Guide to Models, Hardware, and Getting Started
The range of open-source language models you can run on your own hardware in late 2025 is remarkable. This post covers which models are available, what hardware they...
AI Security Is No Longer Optional
AI moved from cute demos to critical infrastructure in under three years. Along the way, it picked up a real attack surface: data leakage, deepfakes, prompt injection, and...
Beyond Basic HTTP MCP: Production Security Enhancements
The Model Context Protocol specification provides HTTP transport basics. This article shows the critical security enhancements needed for production AI knowledge systems: MISE authentication replacing basic OAuth, multi-tenant...
Securing AI Knowledge Access: HTTP MCP Server Architecture for Enterprise
AI assistants accessing corporate knowledge bases introduce security challenges that traditional API architectures don't address. This article explores production-tested patterns for building HTTP MCP servers with defense-in-depth authentication,...
Building STDIO MCP Servers: What I Discovered
A practical guide to building production-ready STDIO MCP servers. Learn the technical patterns, architectural decisions, and gotchas that emerged from real implementations, complete with working code examples.
Beyond the Tutorial: STDIO MCP Servers
Why most MCP servers fail in production, and the architecture that actually works. Learn the patterns that emerged from building production-grade STDIO MCP servers in enterprise environments.
Language Models: Why Everyone Needs to Understand Them
Language models quietly sit behind search, copilots, and agents. This post maps what they are, how we got here, and why every technologist needs a clear mental model...
What Is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?
A crisp introduction to the Model Context Protocol (MCP): what it is, how it works at a high level, and where it fits securely in modern AI architectures...
What Is AI, What Is an LLM, and Why They Matter Now
A concise, practical explanation of AI and large language models, how they are changing multiple industries, and why the underlying hardware and energy infrastructure now matters.
