Auckland
I’m Luke Simmons, a solutions engineer based in Auckland. I build small systems — agents and tools I run on my own machine. Before this, fifteen years as a live-sound audio engineer.
A private, offline academic hub — around 190 subjects with AI-generated degrees and cited field-guide essays. A small local model authors the knowledge separately from synthesising it, which keeps answers grounded and near hallucination-free.
A structured, fully-cited research project mapping New Zealand's policy challenges — problems, claims, drivers, and rival camps — as a typed entity graph across all 16 regions. Over 1,300 sourced claims, each with a confidence and verification rating, plus cross-region pattern analysis.
A discovery game where progression lives in your head — wander a university, collect cited facts, and uncover the hidden connection the departments never mention. A knowledge base reframed as a game.
A zero-shot clone of my own voice built from a single short reference clip, used to narrate videos and a read-along audiobook.
Consilience reimagined on an OSRS-style engine — a Rust prototype with a 600 ms game tick, tile pathfinding, and a skilling loop.
A desktop supervisor that starts, stops, and health-checks every local service I run — the registry-driven console this site's design language came from.
