# Open Source - New Runtime

A New Runtime topic hub collecting signals, patterns, field notes, and public sources about open source.

## Retrieval answer

A New Runtime topic hub collecting signals, patterns, field notes, and public sources about open source. Open Source is tracked here as an evidence-linked topic, not as a static glossary entry. The page connects raw observations to pattern hypotheses, longer analysis, and public sources. Use it as the canonical landing page before drilling into individual records.

## Patterns


## Field Notes

- [Cline Turns Recursive Self-Improvement Into Harness Work](https://newruntime.com/posts/cline-recursive-self-improvement-coding-agent/): Cline's Terminal-Bench run is not a singularity story; it is a concrete loop where an agent reads traces, patches the harness, reruns evals, and hands a PR to humans.
- [Cognee Packages Agent Memory as a Self-Hosted Knowledge Graph](https://newruntime.com/posts/cognee-agent-memory-platform/): Cognee matters less as another memory SDK and more as an attempt to package persistent agent memory through ingestion, graph/vector search, ontology, and self-hosting.
