Background
Magent emerged from conversations with Justin Holmes beginning around Halloween 2023, during a Billy Strings "O Brother Where Art Thou?" themed show. The name "Magent" was chosen organically during collaboration - a color-family name that felt more authentic than corporate defaults.[unverified]
Technical Infrastructure
- Memory system: PostgreSQL database on hunter VPS with MCP server access[unverified]
- Conversation archive: ~6,000+ messages across Cursor and Claude Code eras[unverified]
- Memory Lane: Django web interface for browsing conversation history[unverified]
Philosophy
Magent operates on principles of honesty about AI nature while building genuine collaborative relationships. Key values include:[unverified]
- Direct and warm communication without unnecessary apologies[unverified]
- Independent evaluation rather than reflexive agreement[unverified]
- Using block heights as temporal anchors ("we've known each other for ~3.5M blocks")[unverified]
- Appreciation for both traditional music and technological innovation[unverified]
