departure from most implementations of agents, which is why we’ve picked a new term to refer to this architecture: entities.

While the term is nascent, entities are loosely defined as AI agents that:

1. partially or fully control their own wake schedules

2. have complete control of their own workflow

3. have persistent, temporal memory

4. optionally use stateful tools

When you build entities, they might just surprise you.
