Portrait of Antoine Desjonquères

I’m Antoine Desjonquères. I build practical systems for turning scattered knowledge into clear decisions and repeatable work.

System

figures as of September 2026

The work runs inside a versioned system.

Notes under version control 2,906

Links between notes 8,426

Durable concepts distilled 346

Source extractions 541

Scheduled jobs defined 17

Standing rules from real failures 42

Seven jobs now handle work that used to fill my mornings. They produce two daily briefs, AI-news triage, a scientific-literature watch, a newsletter watch, an email digest, and priority triage. Each writes back under version control for review.

A deterministic layer checks the agents. Numbers need sources. Distilled claims must match their evidence. Concurrent writes are caught before they land, and liveness patrols watch the machines. Each real failure becomes a documented rule. Forty-two so far.

Builds

what the system produces

The system takes these forms in daily work.

Personal operating system A.N.T.: the vault, its agents, and their operating rules. This site was built inside it. See the system.

Knowledge bases For myself and clients: version-controlled, provenance-checked, built for retrieval rather than storage.

Agents Named roles with contracts: what each may do, what it may not, and the failure mode it is prone to. One exists purely as a safety gate.

Skills and tools Reusable procedures and small programs: extraction protocols, red-team drills, lint rules, recovery scripts.

Loops Scheduled work that learns from corrections; selected outputs improve from my replies.

Harnesses Tasks route by difficulty: strongest models for judgment, cheaper models for execution.

Automation Workflows that used to be my mornings: triage, digests, watches, patrols.

Apps and assistants Product builds with small teams, from direction to data to implementation; assistants shaped to one person’s actual week.

Catches

three examples from the record

Two AI research reports arrived credible. One was lying.

A quote its subject never said, and a real statistic whose “after” number was invented. Unchecked, both would have become vault truth and been repeated with confidence. The primary-source rule caught both.

Now a lint check that runs on every commit.

An automation failed and said it hadn’t.

Rate-limited mid-run, it returned placeholder text packaged as a finished result. Trusting the summary would have meant acting on nothing. Reading the raw per-step log recovered the real findings.

Now a recovery script and a standing practice.

Three correct decisions added up to one wrong system.

Each choice was right in the moment. Together they drifted into an inconsistency nothing was positioned to see, until a periodic review read enough history at once to catch it.

Now a decision point, so that class of drift cannot accumulate silently.

Each example traces to a rule, commit, or execution log. See how it works.

Method

How this site was built

This site is an output of the system.

Agents with defined roles and permissions drafted the site inside the version-controlled vault. I reviewed and approved it. Specific claims were checked against primary sources and screened for safe public use.

The value lies in the layer around the model: persistent context, coordinated agents, inspectable verification, and human accountability.

Work together

Start with one workflow

Do you have a workflow that could work better with AI? Let’s talk.

We can start manually and test whether AI genuinely improves it.
