The path to self-improving software is easier (and more agentic) than you might think. Our internal agent platform runs on ~500 lines of Express + SQLite + cron calling claude -p — no agent framework, no multi-agent protocol, no message bus. It's been running PR reviews and user-facing email campaign agents across Nessie in production. I'll share why we haven't needed anything fancier, where the simple loop actually breaks, and the case for under-engineering your orchestrator in 2026.


Approve = merge this PR (closes #22 and rebuilds the homepage). Reject = close this PR with a brief comment. Edit before approving: push commits to talk/22 (e.g. fix a typo in the summary), then merge.

Closes #22
