A minimal agent memory harness: five tools, Markdown, one LLM — no frameworks

Developer dfinke demos a minimal approach to persistent agent memory: no frameworks, just a tiny harness, five basic tools, Markdown files, and one LLM. The core idea is turning your work into a library the agent can draw from at the right moment, instead of the agent forgetting everything when the session ends — a minimal mechanism for an AI whose "brain" you actually own.
