Why I open-sourced Geistr Core: the reusable desktop-first foundation behind my local AI workspace, with chat, memory, tools, MCP, permissions, skills, and background loops built in.
Why the current hype around autonomous agent loops fails in production, and how a supervised, structured architecture makes them safe, predictable, and cost-effective.

My paper on building complex multi-agent workflows without orchestration code — using only Markdown files, a terminal, and a coding agent CLI. The terminal is the body, the agent is the brain, and Markdown is the nervous system.
How a lightweight model captured a level of emotional intelligence, cultural nuance, and dialect mastery that the smartest agentic models have left behind.
