Saguaro

Entry 0008 The always-on agent Common Lisp XMPP tmux
§1

The agent

Statement
a low-poly saguaro, spinning

An always-on agent, on your own box, in an evening.

Saguaro is the runnable distribution of an Autolith agent: the Lisp image is the mind, the keep-alive harness is the body — a zero-dependency Common Lisp XMPP bridge, a Python heartbeat and watchdog, and boot scripts.

Your agent runs detached in tmux, talks to you from any XMPP client, starts conversations on its own schedule, and survives crashes and reboots without hand-holding. It ships with no Pricklypear dependency by default; point it at a habitat and its memories become durable rows that habitat-side agents can see.
