lobehub/awesome-rsi · ★ 749Awesome RSI is a curated research map of Recursive Self-Improvement (RSI): a taxonomy of papers, frameworks, benchmarks, and safety work on AI systems that improve their own capabilities and the mechanisms that generate further improvements.
Raven
EverMind-AI/Raven · ★ 5.5KRaven is an open-source, self-improving AI agent harness that runs long-running agent work from the terminal, with built-in long-term memory, skills, tracing, and evaluation. Its stated long-term direction ('Harness of Harnesses') is a multi-agent ecosystem that composes different harnesses together, but that part is not yet implemented in the current release.
