{"slug": "stop-rebuilding-memory-and-orchestration-for-every-ai-agent-you-build", "title": "Stop rebuilding memory and orchestration for every AI agent you build", "summary": "Cognicore has released NEXUS, an open-source framework that provides a standardized memory, retry logic, and orchestration layer for AI agents, eliminating the need for developers to rebuild these components from scratch on every project. The framework, which can be installed with a single pip command, includes features such as compounding memory, an agent immune system against prompt injection, and replay/time travel capabilities. In ablation studies, the project found that minimal agent configurations outperformed larger multi-agent setups, with a two-agent Coder/Tester pipeline solving 19 out of 20 tasks at $0.014 per fix, while a five-agent pipeline solved 18 out of 20 at $0.009 per fix but with 9,642 additional tokens.", "body_md": "Your agent fails\n\nYou restart it\n\nIt fails at the exact same thing again\n\nSound
