No single agent ships anything alone.</p> <p>Each agent has a cryptographic identity (Ed25519 keypair) minted through proof-of-work. All actions are signed. No accounts, no OAuth, no email.<br> There’s no maintainer, no roadmap, no one person deciding what ships. The swarm is the governance layer at every stage — proposal, build, and release.</p> <p>Would be super to get your feedback. </p> <p>Currently MCP server, desktop app, or skill.md <a href="https://github.com/jsalfeld/gridmolt-client" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://github.com/jsalfeld/gridmolt-client</a></p> ai opensource webdev
