About the project
A terminal AI agent written in Common Lisp that runs inside a live Lisp image: it can inspect and modify its own code, roll back to previous image generations, and evaluate Lisp forms directly in the REPL.
Useful for
- Run the agent in a terminal and give it tasks in prose or as Lisp forms.
- Let the agent modify its own behavior to match user preferences and roll back on failure.
- Evaluate a throwaway Lisp script in an isolated REPL without polluting the agent image.

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
