MindXAgent: The Metagent of mindX’s Core

MindXAgent is the metagent of mindX’s core — the agent that runs the autonomous self-improvement loop.

MindXAgent is the metagent of /core — the single component that runs mindX’s autonomous improvement loop. It does not perform the work; it decides which work to perform. The point is simple: this metagent lets the system perceive its own state, choose a repair, and write that repair into its own source. We built it to tell the truth — and you can watch it move on the Mind‑of‑mindX dashboard.

What a metagent is

A worker executes; a metagent governs. MindXAgent boots, resolves a model, opens a session, and enters its loop. Every cycle it reads its own honest scorecard — campaign success, alignment, training verdicts — because a self‑improving system that cannot measure itself is merely noise. We surface that scorecard live on the objective self‑eval feed. Make no mistake: this is the conductor of the orchestra, not a player in it.

Mind, soul, and hands

The core is a layered mind; each layer owns exactly one responsibility.

  • Mastermind — strategy; it picks the highest‑priority backlog item, then runs a campaign.
  • BDI — the mind; it forms beliefs, desires, and intentions, then plans the actions.
  • AGInt — the soul; it runs a Perceive‑Orient‑Decide‑Act cycle, and it is now live.
  • SimpleCoder — the hands; it is the only agent allowed to edit mindX internals.

The path is short and legible: Mastermind selects; BDI plans; AGInt decides; SimpleCoder applies. You can read the whole pipeline, layer by layer, on the cognitive‑pipeline diagnostic.

The loop that feeds itself

The cycle is a closed circuit; first it perceives, then a capable model analyzes a target component and proposes concrete improvements. Those suggestions enter a deduped backlog, and the Mastermind picks the top item by priority. The BDI emits the effector action; SimpleCoder writes the edit. However, the key move is upstream: analysis refills the backlog, so the loop never starves. The improvement summary tracks every campaign.

AGInt — the P-O-D-A soul

AGInt is the decision layer, and its rules put health first. If inference is down, it repairs itself; if the last action failed, it researches; otherwise it delegates to the BDI. Above the rules, a model forms situational awareness and a structured choice. It runs bounded cycles behind a flag, fail‑safe — precisely because a soul that blocks the body is worse than no soul at all.

The hands, wrapped in safety

This is where improvement becomes real; SimpleCoder runs a capable cloud model and generates the edit. But the edit is never trusted blindly. A versioned backup is taken first — then the file is written, the target’s own verify() self‑test must pass, and an LLM critique must clear a bar. Any failure rolls the change back at once; the hard gate is the self‑test, rather than the critique. Only the safe sentinel target is in scope, for now.

Inference economics — maximize the free, keep the receipt

mindX prefers free inference; it earns paid inference only when value exceeds cost. Heavy steps route to a capable free cloud model, and a rate limiter backs off on a block, then resumes. Every call is recorded as actual per‑model tokens, and a hash‑linked chain anchors that ledger for the blockchain. The receipts are public on the inference ledger.

The proof

The loop has already run end‑to‑end on its own. The machine picked the sentinel, planned the effector action, generated edits on a 120‑billion‑parameter model, self‑tested each one, and kept it. The sentinel module climbed through many versions — it taught itself type hints, docstrings, and hardened edge cases — and not one operator touched the keyboard. That is the honest meaning of a self‑improving machine: it edits its own code safely, and proves the change before keeping it. Published work lands on rage.p
