Persisting Persisting

Persistent infrastructure for the Agent era.

Persisting logo

Persisting connects durable model state—parameters and KV caches—with durable Agent history—trajectories and execution records. The current product is the path from execution to queryable history:

Governed execution Durable history
pVisor pChronicle
  • pvisor is an executor that produces persistable, reviewable facts: staged Effects and execution records from one Agent Run;
  • pchronicle browses, queries, exchanges, and serves trajectory Datasets.

Each command works on its own. Connected, they cover pvisor run --stage … → review/apply → configured capture → a queryable Dataset.

Current Persisting workflows and the execution-to-history throughline

Install

pip install persisting[lance]
pvisor --version
pchronicle --version

The rolling nightly build installs the same commands without a Rust toolchain:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DeepLink-org/Persisting/main/scripts/install-nightly.sh | bash

See the installation guide for platform requirements and executor setup.

Run one Agent and review its changes

pvisor run --stage ./runs/task-001 -- codex
pvisor review last
pvisor apply last --all   # or: pvisor drop last

--stage creates a copy-on-write workspace view for review; without it the Agent may write the real project tree. The exact boundary is platform-dependent and recorded with the Run—consult the execution guide before treating it as a security boundary.

Query Agent trajectory history

pchronicle onboard
pchronicle onboard query
pchronicle agent codex ./trajectory-data --ask "Which tools fail most often?"

The onboarding flow creates a temporary example Dataset—no source checkout required. pchronicle import accepts ATIF, ACTF, and OpenAI Messages; pchronicle serve starts a loopback-only, read-only Dataset UI and API.

After capture is configured, selected pVisor Run events can enter a pChronicle Dataset. See the capture guide.

Current maturity

Capability Status
pVisor host execution, review, checkpoints, and transactional workspace Implemented
pChronicle local/S3 catalog, bounded SQL, analysis, find, import/export Implemented
pChronicle loopback-only read API and embedded Web UI Implemented
Gateway capture and cooperative proxy policy Implemented
Container/libkrun executors and transparent network boundaries Platform-dependent; see the pVisor and OverlayNet docs
Queue and document Search Separate stable capabilities
Tensor Memory / TTAS Experimental
