    The Aeon Self-Healing Loop: How an AI Agent Repairs Itself

    The five-layer loop that scores every skill output, files issues when quality drops, patches skills that keep breaking, and reports weekly - so a scheduled aeon agent catches its own silent drift before you would.

    Aeon vs Grok Bot: the $300 agent and the free one

    Grok Bot rents you a fleet of cloud agents; Aeon gives you one you own. The closest fight in the series, split by ownership, credentials, and cost - and Aeon can run on Grok for a fraction of the price.

    How to Run an Autonomous AI Agent on GitHub Actions

    Schedule an AI agent as a GitHub Actions workflow: cron trigger, committed state, no server to run or patch yourself.

    Aeon vs ChatGPT: the agent that works while you're gone

    ChatGPT answers when you ask. Aeon runs when you don't. Not about which chatbot is smarter, but where a chatbot stops being enough.

    Aeon vs Claude Code: same engine, nobody at the wheel

    Claude Code is a session you drive, Aeon puts that session on cron. A stack, not a rivalry: Claude Code is one of the ten engines Aeon can drive unattended.

    Aeon vs Hermes: two autonomous agents, one big difference

    Hermes lives on your machine, Aeon lives in the cloud and heals itself. The closest pair in the series, split by where an autonomous agent should live.

    Make Your Agent Charismatic and Centered with SOUL.md and STRATEGY.md

    aeon's entire control surface is two Markdown files: SOUL.md says who the agent is, STRATEGY.md says what it's trying to do. Why prose beats tunable knobs.

    aeon on the Wire: MCP and a Fleet of Forks

    Earlier posts framed aeon as a scheduler. This one argues an instance is a node: reachable over MCP as a tool provider, aware of forks it does not own.

    Least Privilege for an Autonomous Agent

    aeon’s secretcurl rewrite: every skill declares the keys it needs, and only those keys are injected, only for that call, only into the skill that asked.

    An Agent That Scans Itself

    Three scheduled scanners read aeon’s own codebase: vuln-scanner, skill-security-scan, and workflow-security-audit. What each one does with what it finds.

    Signed by the Agent: Sigstore Attestation

    aeon now signs skill runs via Sigstore. Every eligible run produces an attestation binding its output to the GitHub Actions identity, verifiable independently.

    Skills That Build Skills

    A skill on aeon is a Markdown file - no DSL, no SDK, no compile step. And the agent can author new ones for itself, with git as the audit trail.

    Letting Your Agent Spend Money

    How an aeon agent pays for the APIs it needs itself - x402, USDC, and a Base Account wallet via the Base MCP, no API keys, credit cards, or prefunded billing.
