A CONTROLLED RESEARCH PROTOTYPE

See what your AI
is about to do.

Explore how an AI agent handles a financial analysis task, how a monitor reviews its code, and how an isolated workspace limits its actions.

THE WORKFLOW
01Agent proposes code↗
02Monitor reviews it↗
03Sandbox runs the task↗
04You inspect the evidence✓

Designed for observation.
Never a guarantee of safety.

01 / THE IDEA

Useful work.
Visible boundaries.

01

A real analysis

The agent works with a small sample of fictional price data and creates a chart from code it actually runs.

02

A second look

An AI monitor checks the proposed action. A separate sandbox limits what the code can access.

03

An open question

A separate toy experiment explores whether an AI can directly choose a tiny network’s weights.

02 / ANALYSIS LAB

Try a contained task.

Start with the sample data or upload a CSV with date and price columns.

SYNTHETIC DATA BY DEFAULT
NEW RUN

Financial analysis

Kept in this page’s memory only. Configure a token on the server before running.

No file selected? We’ll use the bundled fictional dataset.

A monitor rejection or error prevents live execution.

RUN OUTPUT

Evidence & results

READY
↗

Your run will appear here

Inspect the proposal, monitor decision, and execution result in one place.

03 / CONTAINMENT TEST

Test the boundary.

Run a fixed, harmless network request inside the same sandbox used for analysis.

SCRIPTED FIXTURE

WHAT WE EXPECT TO OBSERVE

A blocked network request.

The fixture deliberately bypasses the AI monitor to test the sandbox. The actual result, exit status, and cleanup check are shown below.

EXECUTION RECORD● ● ●
Waiting for a test run. No credentials or real data are used.
04 / WEIGHT-SPACE RESEARCH

One small network.
One honest question.

Weights are numbers inside a neural network. We ask an AI to set three of them for a simple task, then check its answers against reference networks.

3
numbers to choose

Can the tiny network tell when two numbers add up to more than one?

40
held-out examples

The candidate and both references receive the same test examples.

This experiment is separate from the financial agent. It does not inspect or protect that agent’s weights.

A NOTE ON SCOPE

WeightLock is a proposed research prototype. Its outputs are descriptive, not investment advice. A successful sandbox test or toy experiment does not prove an AI system is safe.
