Diagrams

The continuity loop

  • Intent + Constraints define the boundary.
  • Plan defines intended work.
  • Progress records evidenced work.
  • Handoff summarizes the current state for resume.

Handoff-driven resume

A new agent starts from handoff.small.yml, not chat history.

Why this matters

Most "agent memory" is unstructured. SMALL makes memory inspectable, validated, and portable.
