fyai
fyai is an opinionated AI agent harness built as a Unix tool, premised on the idea that AI will become a commodity and that control of your own data is what matters. Its state is durable and stored in a disk deduplicated arena, making git-like branching free with modest storage compared to JSONL/SQLite. Latest additions include full markdown/mermaid rendering support and very alpha Claude Code and Codex session import; it is still alpha but usable.
What it addresses
The author argues that as AI becomes a commodity, having control of your own data is what matters, and other agent harnesses' JSONL/SQLite storage is comparatively costly.

“I'm working on fyai, a rather opinionated agent harness, built to work as a unix tool and the idea that eventually AI is going to be a commodity, where having control of your own data is what's important.”
