Dots sparks a rethink: what should persist isn't the agent but the 'seat'

- The author likes Dots' direction: an agent that remembers your work, keeps going in the background, and returns when something matters feels more natural than starting a new chat each time.
- But he argues the real question is what persists: models, harnesses, providers and quotas all change — so the work itself should persist: identity, task state, decisions, permissions and unfinished responsibilities, with the underlying model swappable.
- He frames the abstraction as persistent conversation → persistent agent → persistent seat.
