Hi, I'm Pooja.

I write about the stuff I actually wrestle with while building: how to shape context for a model, how agent loops go wrong, what a harness is for, and why the semantic layer matters more than the model.

NeuralGist started as my own notes: the concepts I kept re-deriving, the patterns I kept seeing in real systems, and the trends that were actually changing how people build with models rather than just trending on social media. It's now open to anyone who wants to write with the same standard: concrete, honest about trade-offs, and useful to someone shipping something next week.

What we cover

• Foundations — The ideas everything else is built on.
• Trends — What the field is arguing about this month.
• Patterns — Architectures that keep showing up in real systems.
• Tooling — The plumbing: servers, workflows, observability.

How publishing works

1. Create an account and write in Markdown (code blocks, tables and images all work).
2. Submit for review. An editor reads it for accuracy and clarity, not for opinion.
3. Once it's live, it's yours: your byline, your profile, your discussion thread.

Ground rules: cite what you borrow, don't paste model output as your own analysis, and be specific.
