Case File Record
AgentOS
SYSTEM 02
A document-first agent workflow system for filesystem memory, context construction, scheduler-driven proactivity, and human review.
Claim under construction
I can treat memory, context, tools, and human review as system boundaries instead of burying them inside a chat transcript.
- Record Status
- exploration shell
- Type
- Document-first agent workflow system
- Domains
- agent workflows / memory / context routing / human review
Problem
Agent workflows become brittle when memory, instruction, state, and human review are hidden inside chat transcripts.
Context
The project treats agents as operating surfaces over files, memory, tools, and review boundaries. It is technical scaffolding for current exploration, not a public product surface.
Architecture
Documents -> memory -> context routing -> agent action -> human review -> system evolution.
Decision Boundaries
- B01 Documents are interfaces.
- B02 Memory should be inspectable before it becomes persistent.
- B03 Tools belong backstage unless the operating layer requires them.
- B04 Human review protects system evolution.
Trade-offs
Keeps system claims narrow while the runtime shape is still being validated through self-use and staged experiments.
Artifacts
- Unpublished evidence marker: memory model note separating durable memory, ephemeral context, and review before persistence.
- Unpublished evidence marker: scheduler behavior sketch showing what can wake itself and what requires human review.
- Unpublished evidence marker: human review protocol for accepting, rejecting, or editing memory writes.
Connection to Current Focus
AgentOS supplies the backstage model for relationship-memory systems: filesystem memory, context construction, tool boundaries, and human review before persistence.
Next Structural Improvement
Separate durable memory, ephemeral context, and user-facing interaction continuity into clearer layers.
What it demonstrates
Agent runtime thinking, memory governance, context routing, and system judgment discipline.
