I was debating the 5-llama rating on this, truth be told. Five stars, for me, would normally be a fully finished and ready-to-go product. This isn't quite there yet; it works, the bones are there, they just need to be fully fleshed out first.

The thing is, and what made me keep the 5-burrito rating on it, is the pure ambition and complexity of what they're working on here.

If you're looking at this, I'm assuming you've used agents to do parts of things in your work life. You've probably got one running in the background right now (Claude, how's that plugin going anyways?). What's missing, though, is the brain that's holding all the bits and pieces together.

I know, ideally, I'm supposed to be that brain in my world. The problem is, between the 'tism, the ADHD, and the wildness of my 20s, the brain doesn't do so hot when it comes to retaining context. Heck, I'm not even good at sharing context -- my totally disjointed stories are proof of that (just ask my wife).

So what do we do when the flesh-brain doesn't work too well?

Up til now, I've segmented off parts of it to hand off to robot brains. They used to be very bad robot brains, because robot brains couldn't point out things like "maybe the toaster isn't a good bath bomb," but now they're smart enough to be like "maybe something in a soothing lavender instead?"

Where was I going with this

Oh right, anyways, Agently is setting out to be that robot brain in the centre of things -- the one that knows what's going on so your fleshy brain doesn't need to. The one you can turn to and be like "Hey Jarvis, I hit my head and don't remember who I am, what do I need to do next?" and it'll list off the five top emails you need to reply to, what meetings you have, and your local hospital's average emergency wait time so you can hopefully get that concussion checked before those meetings.

So, for overall product *readiness*? 3/5 guacamoles.
But, for project ambition and *where it's going*? 7/5 puppies wearing sombreros.

Overall score: 5/5 freshly baked apple pies.
