Durable agent state

Agentic Factory

A Codex plugin that extends the factory concept with a SQLite event store, CLI control plane, review records, verification history, packets, and dashboard infrastructure.

Problem

Agent coordination breaks down when status, review evidence, and ownership live only in chat.

System

Agentic Factory moves factory state into a local SQLite-backed control plane with durable events and generated operator packets.

Highlights

  • Structured event model for baton state, reviews, verification, pause and resume records.
  • CLI control plane for doctor checks, packet generation, ledger rendering, and dashboard state.
  • Designed to keep agentic work inspectable instead of only conversational.

Key decisions

  • Use structured events rather than ad hoc status prose.
  • Track baton ownership, review evidence, verification, and pause or resume checkpoints.
  • Render markdown ledgers and packets so human operators can review state quickly.

Evidence

  • Public GitHub repository.
  • SQLite migrations, CLI operations, dashboard registry support, and ledger rendering.
  • Doctor checks and verification records for local workflow hygiene.
