looks cool. how's that different from things like markbase dispatch where you can fire up the agent remotely with some given context. i mean what is the advantage of having the agent run always vs start and stop when you need it but give it a long-term memory context? maybe i'm missing something.
Yep, I think that all harnesses will require native durability, and pi-durable is a step in the right direction. I'm skeptical of bolted-on durability, like vercel's durable-harness, because they have to neuter the harness for things they can't reliably make durable (e.g. https://github.com/vercel-labs/durable-harness/blob/fb056a3c...)
i was looking for good self-hostable durable agents to automate a persistent keyword watcher across sm. gonna give this a go. any pointers you recommend?
nice, this is close to something we run ourselves. we put up examples of sm agents that scan socials daily for keywords and DMs us (docs here https://docs.omnara.com/examples/x-signal-agent). probably the fastest starting point is to point your agent to it and ask it to swap in your keywords
with a great related talk! https://ai.engineer/talks/UPwGaM2MKHY-log-is-agent
thanks swyx! the log is the agent is a core insight behind this
you beat pi-durable to it!
haha yes! this was the reasoning for making durability native in our harness

been following you guys from distance over x. congrats on the launch! excited to see where this goes
feels like everyone is converging on durable agents lately: pi durable, cloudflare agents on durable objects, vercel's durable harness

Wow Literally what I was looking for.

looks great
