This is basically what Swamp is[1]. You give an agent a typed interface to extend itself (or use other peoples extensions) into the systems you need to fulfill your request. Think of it like on-demand tool calls. Then it records everything

Policy documents do not govern agents at all. Conformance is distributed and completely unreliable. How many times have you told an agent not to do something then had to correct it? You must always flip the frame. Objective analysis is way

Of course they are - and that's the point I am making. The agent will use every tool in the tool bag. And there's something cool about it systematically trying to achieve its goal. What I don't see is it inventing anything

This is seriously impressive, and if you have used agents enough you're not surprised at all. Like the time I asked it to find the IP address of a vm, so it ssh'd into the VMHost and scanned the arp tables to find the MAC address

Brings me back to learning guitar using a version of TabIt[1] that I hacked and then ultimately paid for. They had an incredible community where people uploaded tabs of your favorite songs. Then you could use TabIt to learn how to play. 1:

What a great teacher. We should all be so lucky to have a quality educator that teaches kids to build and create, instead of consume.

This is my 20th Father's Day. I feel truly blessed to have 3 wonderful kids. We sometimes flirt with the idea of having more, but we are sadly done. The years fly by. It is truly a wonderful experience. Happy Father's Day to all o

This has been a much better rollout. The tool calling is not broken out of the gate like 4.8 was, and the tokens generation is fast. Feels good so far.

That's a pretty different tone from just a mere few months ago when everyone on this website was telling him to shut up. Downplaying his vendetta into let bygones be bygones is pretty insane.

This is why we built swamp[1]. Swamp teaches your Agent to build and execute repeatable workflows, makes all the data they produce searchable, and enables your team to collaborate. We also build swamp and swamp club using swamp. You can see
