🤖 You should write an Agent. Seriously. it's easier than you think! LLM API calls + context management + tools = surprisingly powerful. The field is wide open with unsolved engineering problems and fast iteration cycles. whether you love or hate the hype, understanding this matters.

💾 You're now able to persist your RootFS across reboots! Keep your root filesystem across restarts or even updates. Perfect for caches you don't want to rebuild. (You should probably still not use this for critical data, use volumes for that)

Your RootFS, Reboot-Resistant: Try `persist_rootfs`
We’ve said it before: never use the root filesystem from your application image to persist state. At best, it’s ephemeral. After a machine restart or an update, there’s no guarantee your data will…
