Software development, game design, and AI research.

01 What we build

Three-layer brain architecture with task classification, model routing, persistent memory, and a full tool system. Plugin-driven extensibility from the ground up.

Python Plugin Architecture LLM Integration

Multi-dock architecture connecting coding tools to local inference. Crucible for direct GPU computation, MLX on Apple Silicon, llama.cpp on NVIDIA/AMD/CPU, with optional frontier API mooring for tasks that exceed local capability.

Python Go Crucible MLX llama.cpp

Parses GGUF model weights directly, runs transformer computation on GPU, generates text. No wrappers, no third-party inference servers.

About

Grimvane

One studio. No investors. Everything built from scratch, everything owned in full. AI assistants, puzzle games, security research, and client work — connected by the same standards and the same person behind each one.
