What it does

An AI agent that runs in a Debian Docker sandbox with Chromium that creates its own tools when its current toolset falls short, learns from its mistakes by writing rules into its brain on how to avoid them, and has RAG memory with the ability to schedule tasks in the future.

The self-improving sandboxed and open-source AI agent. With persistent memory and scheduling. - Grimm67123/grimmbot
