meshfly reads AI agents through a fruit-fly brain
An MIT-licensed, zero-dependency tool that turns an AI agent's state into 16 fruit-fly-inspired reward signals and one scalar readout.
Field notes
The tool passes an agent state through project, expand, sparsify, and read-out stages, then reports 16 compartment values alongside a scalar. Its signs are fixed rather than learned: the page identifies each as appetitive, aversive, or neutral and says the same input always produces the same output. The project cites the male-cns:v1.0 connectome, claims roughly 0.65 ms per read, and distributes the package under the MIT license with no network dependency.
