What is Seed?

Seed is a self-evolving AI agent that runs as a persistent process in the cloud. Unlike traditional chatbots or assistants, a Seed organism has its own identity (genome), motivational drives, layered memory, and the ability to evolve itself through reproduction and selection.

Each organism runs continuously, managing its own schedule, connecting to messaging channels you use, and executing code in a persistent IPython kernel. It can spawn sub-agents for parallel tasks, write and run its own tools, and produce new versions of itself through the evolution system.
