Dev Bootstraps AI Agent from Bash Script, No Framework, on Fresh Linux VM
A developer created 'Agent from Scratch,' a bash script that bootstraps an OpenClaw-like AI agent from a single copy-paste on a fresh Linux VM. The script prompts for an API key, instructs the model to generate a REPL with a tool-use loop, and drops the user directly into the running agent. This demonstrates that complex agentic workflows can be built from minimal starting code without relying on heavyweight frameworks like LangChain or LlamaIndex.
