Delightful, even if I don’t recall Solaris

Mine expands truncated feeds.

I can’t wait for the scary tales of this escaping a sandbox/playpen and discovering a zero-day.

Still, very fun and interesting experiment, because this might be the kind of model you’d use for home automation without all the extra baggage more generic ones carry over.

https://rcarmo.github.io/projects/picoflux/ fixes that for me.

I’ve got an X4 as well, and https://rcarmo.github.io/projects/bun-readlater-epub/ and https://rcarmo.github.io/projects/bun-opds-server/ were created for it.

I have also added an e-ink theme to https://rcarmo.github.io/projects/picoflux/ so I can use the browser on my Nomad instead of my iPad, for those trips where I want to read “live” news but not be suckered in by it (and picoflux is how I deal with title-only feeds as well)

Hmm. No MoE or active params weights means this will run _slow_

I implemented a few additional strategies in https://github.com/rcarmo/piclaw/tree/main/runtime/src/exten... - including Codex-native server-side compaction. They all have slightly different trade-offs, but I run very long sessions quite successfully

Those are some pretty meaty scraps, way above what you’d have on several people’s shelves…

Memento is for that kind of cross-project, long term notes.

All SOTA models seem to work fine (including Sonnet and Gemini), as does Kimi and DeepSeek. But this is not for short-term memory.

I’m not using pure OKF. Mine has links (both explicit and semantic, based on embeddings), and I tap into both Needle for routing searches and a Qwen/Gemma or gpt-mini for doing the actual traversals on behalf of the client.

This is not for code bases, that’s pointless. This is for durable facts like “this is the prod server” or “this is the skill for managing GitHub Actions cleanup policies”.

In short, this is for my agents to have a shared skill library, a shared fact library and durable information such as which projects run where.

The rest should be in your repo.

Nice to see more OKF-based approaches. My entry in this field is https://rcarmo.github.io/projects/memento/, which I’ve been running for a few months now.

This seems misguided since the whole point of the browser stack is not reinventing the wheel. The heinous crimes to code maintainability that have been perpetrated on top of websockets litter the halls of technical debt, haunted by the liminal career ghosts of too clever coders…
