State, not scraps.
Facts, decisions, objectives, constraints, hypotheses, questions, evidence, and superseded beliefs stay distinct.
OWL + KESTREL / PERCH
Pick up where
you actually left off.
Perch maintains living project context for agents: what matters, what changed, what was decided, what remains uncertain, and what you may be forgetting.
Context for a purpose.
Agents receive a compact packet for the job at hand instead of an indiscriminate pile of nearest-neighbor chunks.
Provenance by default.
Every useful belief should retain where it came from, who captured it, and what it replaced.
BOOTSTRAP MODEL / PROJECT 001
Perch
Build the tools an AI agent wants in order to work effectively over long periods of time.
5active records
Self-resuming project
A future agent session should be able to resume managing Perch without a human reconstructing the project state.
Astra compounds with Perch
Perch should expose useful capabilities through Astra rather than becoming a disconnected agent stack.
Working name: Perch
Use Perch as the working product name. It is bird-branded and avoids confusion with Meta Threads.
Agent-first product thesis
Start from capabilities the agent actually wishes existed, then productize capabilities that prove generally useful.
First durable deployment
Provision and attest the dedicated Perch data plane, then run the fresh-session self-resumption test.
