Re:Autolith: A programming agent with a live runtime on Saturday August 22, 2026 @03:41AM (#49397529)
This is really interesting. I have felt for the past couple years that the moldability of Common Lisp lends agents the appropriate affordances to “do the right thing” via experimentations.

I see there is a section on RLMs; have you ran Autolith via agentic benchmarks? I would love to see comparisons with Prime Agent.

Forth is unbelievably underrated and I think its value is locked in poor DX.
Hey Alex, we actually had a very similar idea this morning! I could not find your contact anywhere, would love to chat. This is really cool.
Maybe you can use Mercurial for this? You don’t need the complexity of Git for memory.
