NOW.md: The Shared Session for Disconnected AI Agents

说明与用途

NOW.md 用作隔离 AI 代理的共享状态注册表，使它们能够读取和写入指令，减少任务重复并在重启后保持上下文。

问题

AI agents run in isolated processes and cannot directly communicate, leading to fragmented state and duplicated work.

结果

Agents coordinate via a human-readable text file, reducing duplicated work and maintaining operational context across frequent restarts.

工作流

• 1. Agents start or restart and read NOW.md to understand current state.
• 2. Agents perform tasks and append notes or directives to NOW.md.
• 3. Human operators or scripts update NOW.md after task completion or operational shifts.
• 4. Agents re-read NOW.md before significant actions to avoid conflicts.
• 5. Version control (Git) tracks changes to NOW.md for audit and debugging.

证据

The NOW.md file acts as a simple, human-readable register for agent state.

来源

When an agent restarts, its first action often involves reading NOW.md to re-establish its understanding of the system's current state.

来源

Updates are primarily manual or triggered by specific scripts after an agent completes a task.
