Hi! Sorry if this is not the appropriate list to share openbsd-related
projects (perhaps it was misc?)

I want to inform you about this project about using LLMs to inject
thousands of security checks into the OpenBSD kernel automatically.

I'm sharing the first results at
https://github.com/ortegaalfredo/openbsd-hardcore , where I used the
automated tool to add thousands of additional security checks to the
netinet/netinet6 stack of kernel 7.5. My plan is to continue this
process with other subsystems, which will be largely automated, and to
improve the tool so it can be used in other projects. The tool is not
yet public but the idea is quite simple and can be implemented easily.
This is a demonstration of the capabilities of LLMs as a
code-refactoring tool.

Cheers!,

Alfred
