Agent-C: a 4KB AI agent

Love this, old school vibe with a new school trick.

The makefile is harder to comprehend than the source, which is a good omen.

Note: 4KB... BUT calling upon curl, and via popen and not using libcurl...

PS: your domain link has an extra `x`.

I call out to curl sometimes, usually when I want something easy from Lisp languages. What is the overhead of starting a new process between friends?

Thank you, fixed that!

curl was cheating yes, might go zero dependencies in the future.

Working on minimal local training/inference too. Goal of these experiments is to have something completely independent.

Probably vibe-coded.

In this instance, I think "bootstrapped" might be appropriate.
