# Memory and agents

Guth is being designed as a persistent agent whose purpose, memory, tools, and permissions you can review.

Status: **in development**Lifecycle: **product direction**

## An agent has a defined job

An agent starts with a purpose, the tools it may use, the information it may remember, and the actions that must wait for approval.

The goal is to retain useful decisions, preferences, and records instead of entire conversations by default. A memory should link back to its source and remain correctable.

## Continuity is a development goal
