Filesystems are having a moment

kept by eddie mar 10

Filesystems are emerging as a key context layer for AI agents, offering portable, owned data and interoperability without coordination, though context files risk reducing agent task success if overburdened.

Claude Code Sees Like A Software Architect
Claude Code's native LSP support lets it understand code structurally like an IDE, eating the business model of startups that built semantic code understanding as middleware.

Context plumbing (Interconnected)
Matt Webb argues that effective AI agents require continuous, pre-planned movement of context from creation to use, akin to plumbing.

Agent harnesses are deeply tied to agent memory, and using a closed one cedes control of memory to a third party, creating vendor lock-in that open harnesses avoid.
