Agent Identity: From Locke to OpenClaw On the engineering practice and philosophical framework of AI agent identity continuity 0. Introduction: An Engineering Problem Misdiagnosed as Philosophy The cost of agent amnesia is systematically underestimated. Not because users are annoyed—though they are. But because statelessness breaks the foundation of the trust account. Every session, the agent starts from zero. It doesn’t know who you are, why you got angry last time, whether that promise from three months ago was kept. From an economics perspective, it’s like rebuilding your credit score for every transaction—transaction costs explode, and there’s no learning accumulation. ...

MarkItDown and Markdown — Clarifying the Relationship First, it is important to clarify that “MarkItDown” is not a misspelling of the general-purpose markup language “Markdown.” MarkItDown is a specific Python library developed and open-sourced by Microsoft. While its name resembles Markdown and its core purpose is to convert various file formats into Markdown, MarkItDown is an independent software entity. This article focuses on analyzing the implementation principles, design philosophy, features, and practical applications of the MarkItDown tool, while also referencing the Markdown language itself as the target output format when relevant. ...
