Before we write any code, one thing needs to be clear.
Agency -- the capacity to perceive, reason, and act -- comes from model training, not from external code orchestration. But a working agent product needs both the model and the harness. The model is the driver. The harness is the vehicle. This repository teaches you how to build the vehicle.
At the core of every agent is a neural network -- a Transformer, an RNN, a trained function -- shaped by billions of gradient updates on sequences of perception, reasoning, and action. Agency was never bestowed by the surrounding code. It was learned during training.
Humans are the original proof. A biological neural network, refined by millions of years of evolutionary pressure, perceives the world through senses, reasons through a brain, and acts through a body. When DeepMind, OpenAI, or Anthropic say "agent," they all mean the same core thing: a model that learned to act through training, plus the infrastructure that lets it operate in a specific environment.
The historical record is unambiguous:
2013 -- DeepMind DQN plays Atari. A single neural network, receiving only raw pixels and game scores, learned 7 Atari 2600 games -- surpassing prior algorithms and beating human experts in 3 of them. By 2015, scaled to 49 games at professional tester level, published in Nature. No game-specific rules. One model, learning from experience.
2019 -- OpenAI Five conquers Dota 2. Five neural net
