# Dev Update Week 0

I am planning to research topics related to EL or CL as well as tooling that might fall under my expertise and experience. Based on this the projects related to Erigon, Prysm, tooling,, RIG and security roughly fall in this category.

## Areas of Research

For week 0 it was mostly two things:

* Differential LLMing
* FOCIL

### Differential LLMing

I have some basic experience as well as interest in LLM. So this is a cool thing for me to work on. There is only one line description for it for now:

`A tool using LLMs to analyze implementations of EIPs and consensus-specs between the different clients to find differences in implementation.`

Based on this I have thought of an initial PoC that will have the following:
1. Fetch specs and PR diffs
1. Parse EIP and titles
1. Use LLM for summary + key concepts
1. Extract relevant diffs
1. Explain code for each client
1. Compare them
1. Generate basic report

This will be implemented in week 1.

### FOCIL

The idea of FOCIL has been part of multiple of the proposed projects. So I did some basic research on it to know what this is all about. In week 1 I will try to dig deeper into the concept and have a look at the current implementation patters across clients.
