Martin Ndeto, Agentic Engineer

Software engineer, with a focus on Agentic Engineering. I design and implement deterministic, stateful AI agent architectures. From agent execution, reasoning, memory, retrieval, deployment and observability.

Recent Work

My focus has been AI-powered and AI-enabled systems, with a strong interest in agentic engineering: building systems that let AI agents reason, act, retrieve context, and operate reliably across real-world software environments.

Atlas Chat

Atlas Chat is a graph-based agent architecture focused on building reasoning loops that can work through questions, use tools, and answer against uploaded documents. The result is a chat system that can ingest documents on the fly and retrieve the right context to answer user questions.

The main work was in designing the agent loop itself and connecting it to a custom RAG pipeline that ingests documents, retrieves relevant context, and feeds that back into the conversation. Code is below.

Beav3r

Beav3r is an authorization and execution protocol and control plane for AI agents across both blockchain and traditional systems. The project combines distributed systems, cryptography, identity, authorization, and AI infrastructure to address a core challenge of the agentic web: enabling autonomous agents to operate within real world systems while remaining accountable, auditable, and controllable.

Through Beav3r, I have designed and built systems for agent identity, delegation, policy enforcement, human oversight, and verifiable execution, drawing on both crypto native primitives and established computing concepts.

Past Focus

Interoperable Addresses and Names

Cross-chain identity and discovery using ERC-7930 and ERC-7828 with ENS-backed chain registry resolution. This work is informed by hands-on development and personal contribution to the Ethereum Chain Registry, including core resolver logic and registry tooling.

txpool-viz: Execution and Mempool Tooling

A tool to visualize and compare transaction pools across different Ethereum execution clients. This helps debug transaction propagation issues, analyze mempool behaviors during attacks, and understand differences in transaction acceptance policies between clients.

x402 Payments and Identity

I designed and implemented ENS-based payTo support for the x402 protocol, enabling identity-anchored payment routing for agents. This work connects decentralized identity with request/settle payment flows, allowing agents to resolve payment destinations via ENS rather than hardcoded addresses.

In addition to the core payTo mechanism, I implemented ENS-aware identity metadata extensions that allow agents to attach, resolve, and interpret identity context during x402 message exchange.

Trustless Agents x ENS

When a trustless agent sets an ENS name in its registry, ENSIP-25 provides the verification path so ownership claims can be trusted across AI agent registries.

I implemented it in the agent0 SDKs to make ownership checks portable and reliable for agent-to-agent interaction.

Resolver-Based Discovery of Agent Delegation Credentials

In the agentic web, agents are first class actors that must discover and verify delegated authority. This work implements the Agent Delegations ERC draft, and demonstrates how delegation credentials can be trustlessly resolved from an ENS identity using a custom credential resolver plus ECS hook routing.

Engagement

I plug in as a systems engineer and builder, turning ideas into working software through hands-on implementation.

I combine architecture, end-to-end engineering, and product oversight, taking production systems from design to delivery in fast-moving environments.
