Cross-Model Audits of AI-Written Code — Process, Not Faith
After using AI to port a calculator from a 35-sheet engineering spreadsheet, how do I know it is correct? This article covers three independent audit rounds by an agent from another provider, the rules to set before starting, confidence levels that keep claims within the evidence, and the classes of errors AI kept making in every round.
Reverse Engineering Spreadsheet Constants into Formulas
A sheet has a criteria table sitting beside the calculations, but no VLOOKUP connects them. People read the table and type values into cells themselves, and mistakes go unnoticed. This article covers separating formula cells from manually entered cells, then reconstructing a single formula that matches all 16 values in a multiplier column.
Porting Excel Formulas to the Web: Floating-Point Traps
Porting engineering formulas from an Excel file to a web calculator produced differences around 1e-13 — not a math bug, but differences in how JS and Excel evaluate floating-point powers and multiplication order, with a method for reading formulas and values separately using openpyxl and building fixtures that actually catch regressions.
