Continuity between model calls.
Sturgis investigates how an agent can maintain its environment, action contracts, and evidence between reasoning steps. Persistent state gives each model invocation a place in an ongoing process.

INSIDE STURGIS
01
An ongoing world
State persists between model calls rather than being reconstructed solely from conversation.
02
Actions with contracts
Action contracts provide structure around what the agent can do and the consequences of execution.
03
Context with provenance
Context carries information about its origin so the runtime can distinguish sources.
04
Memory with a lifecycle
Memory is treated as managed state with a lifecycle inside the system.
