Self-hosted agents are still just disposable coding tools, argues a new article

An article argues that the common view of self-hosted agents is too narrow: they are treated as disposable coding tools, where you point one at a repo, it writes code, and then any learning disappears when the session ends.
The implicit critique is that this design wastes the chance to build agents with durable memory and long-term context. The post frames persistent, self-hosted agents as the next step beyond today’s session-bound coding workflows.
