AGENTIC COMPANY SERIES

The blueprint for building an Agentic Company

Eight papers that form the complete theory-to-operations stack: why organizational judgment needs an OS, structural design, stability laws, algorithm architecture, mission-constrained optimization, survival optimization, workforce transition, and agent lifecycle management.

Series Thesis

Company Intelligence explains why the OS exists. Structure defines responsibility. Stability laws prove when governance holds. Algorithms make it executable. Mission constraints keep optimization aligned. Survival theory determines evolutionary direction. White-collar transition shows who moves first. VITAL keeps the whole system alive.

Self-Modifying Agent Systems: Architecture for Agents That Rewrite Their Own Tools, Commands, and Workflows

Beyond tool creation — a formal framework for bounded self-modification with stability guarantees and immutable audit trails

Agents that merely create new tools hit a ceiling. Real operational autonomy requires agents that can modify existing tools, rewrite commands, and restructure workflows based on performance feedback. We present a formal architecture for bounded self-modification with Lyapunov stability analysis, halting guarantees, and responsibility-gated audit trails.

自己書き換えAgentシステム — Tool・Command・Workflowを自律的に進化させるアーキテクチャ

ツール生成を超えて — 安定性保証と不変監査証跡を備えた有界自己修正の形式的フレームワーク

新しいツールを生成するだけのAgentには限界がある。真の運用自律性には、パフォーマンスフィードバックに基づいて既存のツール・コマンド・ワークフローを自ら書き換える能力が必要だ。本稿では、Lyapunov安定性解析・停止保証・責任ゲート付き監査証跡を備えた有界自己修正アーキテクチャSMASを提示する。

Self-Extending Agent Architecture: Capability Gap Detection, Tool Synthesis, and Autonomous Evolution Under Governance Constraints

Agents that recognize their own limitations and autonomously build the tools they need — within the safety boundaries of an operating system

Traditional AI agents are bounded by the tools humans provide. When an agent encounters a task outside its toolset, it halts and waits. This paper introduces the Self-Extending Agent Architecture (SEAA), where agents detect their own capability gaps, synthesize new tools through code generation, validate those tools in sandboxed environments, and register them into the OS runtime — all under human-governed safety constraints. We formalize the agent state model X_t = (C, T, M, R), derive the self-extension equation X_{t+1} = E_t ∘ G_t ∘ J_t(X_t), prove Capability Monotonicity under validation gates, and demonstrate the architecture within MARIA OS's hierarchical coordinate system.

自己拡張型Agentアーキテクチャ — 能力不足を自ら認識し、ツールを自律生成するOS設計

Agentが自身の限界を検知し、コード生成でツールを合成し、サンドボックスで検証し、OSランタイムに登録する — すべてガバナンス制約の下で

従来のAIエージェントは、人間が提供したツールセットに束縛される。未対応タスクに遭遇すると停止し、人間の介入を待つ。本論文では、Self-Extending Agent Architecture(SEAA)を提案する。エージェントが自律的に能力ギャップを検出し、構造化コード生成でツールを合成し、サンドボックス環境で検証し、OSランタイムに登録するフレームワークである。エージェント状態モデル X_t = (C, T, M, R) を形式化し、自己拡張方程式 X_{t+1} = E_t ∘ G_t ∘ J_t(X_t) を導出し、検証ゲート下での能力単調性定理を証明する。MARIA OSの階層座標系における具体的な実装を示す。

The Brain as a Recursive Self-Improving System

Predictive coding, dopamine learning, and the millisecond A/B test running inside your skull

The human brain continuously generates predictions, measures errors, and updates its own parameters — a recursive self-improvement loop that operates across timescales from milliseconds to decades. This article explores the neuroscience of predictive coding, dopamine reward prediction error, and synaptic plasticity as a blueprint for agent evolution.

Evolution as Safe Mutation Governance

DNA repair, mutation rate control, and developmental constraints reveal evolution as a governed improvement process

Evolution is commonly misunderstood as purely random mutation plus natural selection. In reality, DNA repair mechanisms, mutation rate regulation, developmental constraints, and epigenetic inheritance make it a sophisticated governed mutation system. This article reframes evolution as a design pattern for safe agent self-improvement.
