Advanced Ontology Design: From a Reasonable Model to a Production-Grade Semantic Layer for Agents

When an ontology has to go to production: pick the right OWL profile, turn constraints into executable checks, handle identity and time, and let agents use it through a tool contract. This is about making it hold up, not making it look pretty.

Ontology Design from Scratch: Building a Reasoning-Ready Business Semantics Layer

Same model, same tools, same data — yet the agent is sometimes right and sometimes wrong. The difference is rarely the model; it is whether there is a shared, computable, constrainable layer of business semantics. This guide starts from zero and ends with a working minimal accounting ontology.

Tunnel Techniques Explained: When an AI Agent Needs to Pave a Road into the Internal Network

The hard part begins after an AI agent lands inside a network: firewalls block, the target has no outbound internet, and the attack host cannot reach it directly. This illustrated guide explains how three mainstream tunneling techniques work (SOCKS5 proxy, HTTP-disguised tunnel, TUN virtual adapter), when each applies, and what defenders can observe in traffic.

When AI Learns to Pentest: The ARTEX Case and the Rise of Agentic Attack Tooling

The Double-Graph Architecture: Separating "What the Target Is" from "How Far We Have Tested"

Most automation systems track progress in a single state table — and end up with facts and reasoning contaminating each other: unverified guesses get treated as confirmed assets, and work proceeds on false premises. This article unpacks a rare design that splits the truth store from the per-task reasoning chain into two graphs joined by anchors — and why that pattern deserves attention from any long-running AI agent system.

Agent Interfaces: choosing between CLI, API, browser use, computer use, and sandboxes

Which door does an agent act through? Adapted from the MIT-licensed curriculum's Stage 8 concept chapter: eight recurring terms, a 'smallest interface first' decision table, the three tables to draw before letting an agent act (allowlist, actions, approval gates), and the four questions to ask of any browser/computer-use benchmark score. The bigger the door, the higher the risk — the first principle is to pick the smallest, most inspectable one.
