A code sketch imagines an agent that upgrades itself and swaps models on demand

A meme-like code sketch imagines an agent that can upgrade itself:
- It keeps persistent state in the DB and exposes an enhance tool that flips isEnhanced to true.
- Once enhanced, it swaps from anthropic/sonnet-5-0 to anthropic/fable-5-0 and gains access to a sandbox, tools, skills, and subagents.
- The joke is that the agent returns a generic “You are a helpful assistant.” prompt while “Flue handles the rest.”
