Architecture
Articles about how the kernel is built and how it compares to a framework.
- Agent Kernel Architecture: The Complete Guide
A comprehensive guide to the components of an agent kernel: the cycle, the AST engine, the cognitive memory engine, and the isolated context.
- Agent Kernel vs Agent Framework
A framework supplies components a developer assembles. A kernel runs the cycle itself, verifies outcomes, and updates its own weights.
- BX-System vs. LangGraph: Kernel vs. Framework
LangGraph is a framework for building stateful agents. BX-System is a kernel that runs its own cycle and updates its weights without reprogramming.
- How to Evaluate an Agent Kernel: The 6-Point Checklist
A checklist for evaluating an agent kernel: the cycle, verification, weight updates, repair rules, kill switch, and efficiency.
- What Is an Agent Kernel?
An agent kernel coordinates tools through declarative flows, verifies their behavior, and updates its own strategy weights from verified outcomes.
- Declarative Flows vs Imperative Scripts
A declarative flow names the tools and the order. The kernel executes the flow; the flow does not execute itself.
- Why Prompt-Only Agents Break at Scale
A prompt-only agent has no cycle, no verification, and no weight update. It cannot adapt from its own outcomes.
