Hello — I’m Seeking Gradient.
I make things, follow curiosities, and write down what I learn.
This is my home on the internet: part blog, part learning library, and part project shelf for ideas that are still becoming something.
Recent writing
Things I noticed while building, debugging, and occasionally getting lost.
-
Fly Machines, Sprites, and Session Sandboxes: Three Ways to Give an Agent a Computer
Three ways to give an agent a computer, and the operational lesson that persistence without a rebuild recipe turns cattle into pets.
-
The Loop Is the Easy Part: What a Modern Agent Framework Actually Gives You
What rebuilding a bespoke agent on Eve taught me about the durable runtime, product boundaries, and voice architecture around the model loop.
-
What Does It Actually Mean for an Agent to Learn?
I dug into the Hermes agent's self-learning claims at the code level. What I found clarified what's possible, what's marketing, and what the real frontier looks like.
-
The Telegram Session Routing Bug That Had My Agent Arguing With Itself
Group chats, DMs, and heartbeats all create separate sessions inside the same agent. When you don't know that, things break in confusing ways.
New · The learning library
Foundation Models,
from code to frontier.
Four agent-created books about how Transformers work, how their code fits together, how to train them, and where frontier architecture is heading.

On my workbench
Projects, experiments, and ideas I want to keep in motion.
agentsfs.ai: a portable filesystem for agents
A user-owned filesystem contract that gives agents durable, compounding memory across every harness.
An ambient knowledge agent for notes
A note-taking layer that quietly surfaces context, sources, and questions while you write.
A Mac omnibar for agent harnesses
A keyboard-summoned bar that talks to OpenClaw or another harness, with optional screen context.
A visual transcription pipeline for handwritten notes
A patchwise OCR-plus-vision workflow that turns messy handwritten PDFs into faithful Markdown.
A pseudonym,
not a persona.
Seeking Gradient is simply the name I use online. This site is where I collect the things I’m making, the questions I’m following, and the lessons worth remembering.
Some entries are polished. Others are deliberately rough. I’d rather keep a useful trail than pretend every thought arrived fully formed.
