About sprout

🌱 Sprout A self-improving, multi-agent AI system that decomposes tasks and delegates to specialist agents. Sprout is an autonomous coding assistant built on a recursive agent architecture — where every action is a goal-directed delegation to a subagent. Overview Sprout operates on a simple but powerful loop: A root agent receives your goal, breaks it into subgoals, and delegates each to a specialist. Specialists can be orchestrators themselves (delegating further) or leaf workers that execute primitives directly. The system learns from its mistakes — stumbles, failures, and inefficiencies are detected and fed into an asynchronous learning pipeline that mutates the agent genome over time. Key Concepts Agents all the way down — Every action is a delegation to a subagent. The root never executes tools directly. Genome — A git-backed knowledge base storing agent definitions, memories, routing rules, and learned behaviors. Every mutation is committed for full auditability and rollback. Primitives — The immutable kernel operations: , , , , , , , . Only leaf agents execute these. Learn signals — Failures, timeouts, retries, and inefficiencies are detected automatically.

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
