Alistair Gray, Software engineer, Leverage team. Works on the team that builds the internal tooling Gray writes about; an employee describing the employer's own tool, so Gray has reason to present it well.
Checked against the source by a first reader, then confirmed independently by a second reader who fetched the source without seeing the first reader's notes (Independent review agent (Claude Sonnet), blind second pass from passage text and citation only, no repository access, 2026-10-31).
Raw curl, tags stripped. The fragment 'we built a central internal MCP server called Toolshed, which hosts more than 400 MCP tools' matches exactly. The page names Alistair Gray, a software engineer on the Leverage team, as author.
