Hi everyone,

I am pleased to introduce kaagum =F0=9F=90=A6=E2=80=8D=E2=AC=9B, a tiny AI =
agent written in Guile
with minimal dependencies. It began as a weekend project because I had
gotten tired of bloat and vulnerabilities in AI software. kaagum brings
care and craft, and thoughtfully designed security (through capabilities
and Guix containers to isolate tool calls) to AI agents. kaagum
implements the Agent Client Protocol (ACP) and works with any compatible
client. Thus it composes well not only with Emacs but with any editor or
environment of your choice.

I am concerned about the environmental and social impacts of using AI,
but at the same time am tempted by some of its possibilities. Please use
your own wisdom and judgment. This project is an experiment with AI. It
is not an endorsement of AI. Please see the README for more.

I'd love to collaborate with you. If you're interested in hacking on
this together, please look at the Brainstorming section of the README.
Let's use this public inbox for discussion.

Cheers!
Arun
