That’s got me wondering:

How deep can the recursion go? Could Claude use Evolve to build a meta‑tool that composes other tools, gradually ratcheting up abstraction like a miniature AutoCAD for software?

What’s the right blast‑radius guardrail? The README flags a security doc, but in practice do we need sandboxed micro‑VMs à la Firecracker, or is human‑in‑the‑loop code review still feasible once the tool chain snowballs?

Does tiny‑tool granularity beat monolithic “agents”? Each plugin is just a plain Python function with a manifest—feels easier to audit/reason about than the sprawling state machines we see in AutoGPT land.

License experiment: It’s under the “Sovereign v1.1” license—free for individuals, paid for corp use. If recursive self‑programming catches on, does this model become a new norm for AI‑generated utilities?

I’m stoked about the possibility that my assistant could one‑click evolve from “helpful code reviewer” to “on‑device tool‑smith,” but equally terrified that I’ll wake up to a laptop that’s spent the night for‑looping rm -rf. Curious what the HN hive‑mind thinks: stepping stone to personal automation nirvana, or a future malware authoring kit?
