Where Does the Agent Live?

The text explores the concept of where an agent "lives" in computational systems, emphasizing that while agents run in ephemeral sandboxes, their true essence is stored in their state, such as logs, memory, and data versions. It suggests that this state is crucial and should reside in a unified, queryable catalog like Pixeltable, rather than being scattered across multiple systems. The document outlines that an agent is composed of four key components—model, harness, sandbox, and state—where the first three are interchangeable, but the state is irreplaceable. The text highlights the importance of having a consistent snapshot boundary to maintain and manipulate the agent's state, arguing against fragmented storage solutions. It concludes that centralizing the agent's identity in a durable catalog allows for efficient management and recovery, even in environments where sandboxes are designed to be short-lived.
