Benchmark author and IT operations generalist, Raleigh, NC. I build software-engineering benchmark challenges for frontier coding agents at Datacurve: a real repository pinned to one commit, a maintainer-style issue, a hidden test suite with its runner, a reference patch, and a Docker grading image, tuned so that the platform's solver passes only some of the time. I maintain Compartment, an encrypted local-first memory for AI agents, and contribute fixes to agent frameworks.

MaxFreedomPollard/Compartment — Encrypted, fully offline agentic memory. One click install, GUI w/ memory map, all OS and agents. Superior memory creation, storage and retrieval. Python, Apache-2.0, with a docs site. Listed in Awesome-AI-Memory, Awesome-AI-Agents, Awesome-Agent-Memory, awesome-mcp-servers, awesome-mcp, toolsdk-mcp-registry.
Accepted challenges authored for Datacurve's ShipD platform, each rated at the platform's hardest difficulty band after automated checks, solver runs and human review, against LibCST, peewee and sqlglot. The shipd/ folder holds each task statement as the agent received it, the grading environment, the platform's acceptance record, the solver run log and every review outcome. The hidden tests and reference solutions are withheld: they are Datacurve's benchmark data, and each folder's REDACTED.md says exactly what was removed and why.
