@hwchase17 is right, memory creates lock-in. But not just conversations. Tool registries, hooks, agent conventions -> that's harness memory too. In my setup I define agent tools once in a shared regis
@hwchase17 is spot on: Agent harnesses are the real foundation now — and they're fused with memory. Give a closed/proprietary harness control of your agent's memory (context + personalization) and you

Memory is where the harness stops being a wrapper and becomes an ownership layer. Once it controls what gets remembered, retrieved, compressed, and acted on, it starts shaping the agent’s judgment, no

Memory makes your agent smarter over time. The agent harness is key to the memory layer. You can't bolt one onto the other after the fact. Every decision the harness makes - what goes in context, what

Model providers don’t lock you in with the API. They lock you in with your own data. Memory is the moat. If you don’t own your agent’s harness, you don’t own your agent’s memory. And switching means s

Great breakdown of how model providers are platformizing their AI/agents. A lot of people will take the convenience of going all in on a provider, but they will be locked in and giving up data control
Great piece. The lock-in point is the one nobody talks about enough. If your agent’s memory lives behind someone else’s API, you don’t have a product. You have a dependency. Learned this early buildin
