nothing about the system should _require_ external connectivity. practically, i think it means i'm starting with local models, local storage, etc. the trick will be to arrive on a single data model so that intent and placement are separate concerns.

at a deeper level, i think the value is exploring what trying to flip the platform paradigm means -- instead of big centralized compute with control planes, what if we optimize for lots of independent compute, with collaboration planes?

What’s a collaboration plane look like? IMO the “local first” paradigm breaks down when I want to close my laptop. And i dont really want agents running directly on my laptop, so each gets its own VM and user account. But the c&c is still janky and degenerates to tmux/ssh
