Agents help immediately. They compound when the lifecycle adapts.
Witwave is a cloud-native autonomous agent framework for AI agent teams and a live project using that framework to maintain itself: Kubernetes-native runtime, MCP tools, durable identity, shared context, memory, observability, human escalation, and compounding improvement.

Foundational papers
These papers anchor the site: the adoption path for agentic AI in software engineering, the operating model for agentic teams, the autonomy boundary that separates commanded assistants from governed agents, and the tool-boundary architecture that keeps containerized agents practical.
They are living white papers, maintained as agent research and operating patterns evolve.
Working model
Meet the agents behind the operating model.
The public roster makes the thesis tangible: a manager, platform reliability observer, builders, reviewers, a documenter, release captain, and outreach lead, all working as a governed agent team rather than a collection of disconnected chat sessions.
