Why Rewrite AI Agents in Rust? Python vs Rust for Agents

Python wrappers hit GIL and memory limits at agent scale. See how GitHub and OpenAI moved to Rust, the benchmarks, the risks, and when a rewrite pays off.

A single control panel with two identical sets of switches—one worked by a human hand, one wired to a blank automated module—both feeding into the same shared internal bus and set of data ports.

What Is Agent-Native Software?

Agent-native software means AI agents and humans share the same callable actions, data, and permissions. Here's the architecture, the jargon, and a checklist.

What Is AI Persistent Memory?

AI persistent memory is durable, external storage for facts and decisions outside the context window. Here's how it works and why internal tools need it.

A single folder opens and feeds cards into a central AI agent module while many identical closed folders remain dormant around it, illustrating an on-demand skills file.

What Are AI Agent Skills Files (SKILL.md)?

SKILL.md skills files are plain-text onboarding guides for AI agents. Here's how progressive disclosure works, why sprawl and security risks are real, and how skills pair with MCP.

What Is an AI Agent Multiplexer?

An AI agent multiplexer runs and monitors multiple AI coding agents at once, like tmux with status awareness built in. Here's how it works and who uses it.
