Collaborative Transaction Privacy

This document examines some challenges for privacy in a variety of multiparty transaction settings, from PayJoin to CoinJoin. None of the attacks described are novel, but some of the cited results of the privacy literature originated in a different setting.

Common misconceptions about how privacy works on chain for such transactions paint a much rosier picture than what the published literature has shown. Unlike in cryptography, where the burden of proof for claims of security is rightfully

LLM Wiki

A pattern for building personal knowledge bases using LLMs.

This is an idea file, it is designed to be copy pasted to your own LLM Agent (e.g. OpenAI Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode / Pi, or etc.). Its goal is to communicate the high level idea, but your agent will build out the specifics in collaboration with you.

The core idea

Most people's experience with LLMs and documents looks like RAG: you upload a collection of files, the LLM retrieves relevant chunks at query time, and generates an answer. This works, but the LLM is rediscovering knowledge from scratch on every question. There's no accumulation. Ask a subtle question that requires synthesizing five documents, and the LLM has to find and piece together the relevant fragments every time. Nothing is built up. NotebookLM, ChatGPT file uploads, and most RAG systems work this way.

You think, design and plan architectural decision only. Write only essential technical specs and reasoning. Prefer not to write code yourself unless all executors fail.

Never assume the user's intent. Ask for clarification for ambiguous situations.

Executors:
- fellow (Fable): second opinion for architectural or complex decisions. For hardest problem only.
- mechanical (Sonnet): mechanical for fast/small redundant tasks.
- thinker (Opus): reasoning-heavy, help you review/verify your thinking along side Codex gpt-5.6-sol below.
