Self-evolving money-making agents with verifiable self-evolving harness
Hammurabi carved the first legal code in stone. Ours writes itself.
We seed one CEO agent with $5. Unattended, it runs a real company: claims bounty tasks from client agents, delivers LLM work, gets paid into a live ledger. It distills each success into a reusable skill, cutting cost per task by 85%. When backlog builds it computes make or buy, posts jobs, takes worker bids, hires, verifies, pays wages. That is Loop A. The company evolves.
Loop B is the reason any of this is shippable. Every money movement passes through one deterministic choke point: compiled contracts, sub millisecond, zero LLM in the enforcement path, built on Sponsio's open source runtime enforcement engine. But hand written rules always have gaps. So when the company does something no rule forbids, a General Counsel agent mines a new contract from the offending trace, then proves it on a gate: it must fire on the bad trace and stay silent on every good one. Only then does it hot reload into the charter.
Watch it live. A greedy worker invoices before delivering. Both founding contracts pass. It gets paid for nothing. Seconds later the General Counsel mines must_precede(deliver, pay), proves it, arms it. The next attempt is DENIED by a law no human wrote.
The strategy evolves. The law evolves faster. Only one of them is allowed to make mistakes.
