Agents fail on the harness, not the model.
Agent operating systems, Solana infrastructure, open source.
Personal brand / hub: nyk.dev · GitHub: github.com/0xNyk
Founder of Builderz, a development studio for Solana products and AI agent systems.
I build the ops layer for AI agent fleets - quotas, safety gates, orchestration, control planes - and prove it in daily use: my ventures run on the same agent stack I open-source, down to the live star counts on this page. 18.6K+ OSS stars (18,587 live across every repo I have authored, listed on this page).
I founded Builderz to build Solana products. Today, the studio also delivers AI agent systems, infrastructure integrations, and product design.
We work from architecture through launch, and help teams repair systems that are failing in production. Our open-source work lives at builderz-labs.

- Infrastructure wins on latency, reliability, and sharp defaults.
- Agent teams need operations, not demos.
- The strongest stack is open-core control plane + premium operator UX.
