Agents break on long jobs: they forget, lose work in a crash, and invent answers when asked why. Continuum is a research agent built to stay reliable over hours.
How it works: Nimble searches the live web and fetches full pages when snippets lack the value. Liquid AI's LFM2.5-2.6B, running locally via llama.cpp, extracts each value with an exact quote; ungrounded quotes are dropped. Deterministic code normalizes values (128K = 131,072), rejects off-type ones, and marks a claim supported only when two different websites agree. Real disagreements trigger a follow-up search; if one source explains the conflict, the claim becomes "qualified". Every step is stored append-only in RawTree (Tinybird): state checkpoints plus a flight log of searches, failures, retries and restarts. A crashed run resumes where it stopped and never blindly repeats a paid call.
"Ask the memory" retrieves records from RawTree, lets Liquid phrase an answer, then checks every citation, number, URL, time and model attribution; wrong answers are withheld. Black Forest Labs FLUX produced the brief's artwork only (cover, emblems, clip), never data.
Live result: 20 claims on five small models, 40 quotes from 18 sites, 9 sessions survived, a verified "why", and one answer caught blaming the wrong model.
