Introducing Edgar - a Voyager-Inspired Software Agent

Edgar is a software agent I’m writing in Typescript inspired by the Voyager Research Project. He’s named after the persistent AI character in the 1984 Movie Electric Dreams.

Within a few days of reading the Voyager paper, I incorporated something similar to the Voyager skill generation strategy. When you request that Edgar do something, he generates code (a new “skill”) to fulfill your request. He tries to use as many of his existing skills as possible in the fulfillment of that request. For simple requests, Edgar can complete them immediately and add them to his library. Accomplishing more complicated requests requires building on top of skills in the library.

This is interesting. Do you have Github link for Edgar?
