# Lab Notes — Neon Forge

System breakdowns, build decisions, and mechanisms from the Neon Forge lab.

- [Agentic Surfaces, Live Bots, and What’s Next for CompX](https://neonforge.ltd/lab-notes/agentic-surfaces-summer-update.md): Brownie is live on the CompX treasury, Ghillie is taking over prediction markets, and we’re thinking harder about how humans — not just agents — meet enriched x402 surfaces.
- [Durable Systems](https://neonforge.ltd/lab-notes/durable-systems.md): Why we optimize for clarity, minimal surface area, and survivability under iteration.
- [Following the Agents](https://neonforge.ltd/lab-notes/following-the-agents.md): From Aqua Index and AgentQuest to Canix402 — how closing one experiment and opening another led us to agent-native infrastructure on Algorand.
- [Pressure-Testing Mechanisms](https://neonforge.ltd/lab-notes/pressure-testing-mechanisms.md): A practical way to test whether protocol and product assumptions hold up under stress.
- [Roadmaps and Cloud agents](https://neonforge.ltd/lab-notes/roadmaps-and-cloud-agents.md): We published the CompX v2.5 roadmap on the 15th, and we've been using Cursor cloud agents, Grok, and Linear to start shipping it, with humans still deciding what gets merged.
- [Shipping Focused Cycles](https://neonforge.ltd/lab-notes/shipping-focused-cycles.md): Why smaller release loops outperform large invisible rebuilds for product reliability.
- [Strategies, Brownie Bot, and Where This Is All Going](https://neonforge.ltd/lab-notes/strategies-brownie-bot.md): Strategies turn Canix402 opportunities into reusable DeFi playbooks; Brownie Bot is the open-source POC that shows what an autonomous treasury looks like when it talks to the network.
