Prime Agent convenes 2,200 agents to rewrite itself, starting up 13 times faster
According to news from Bijie, Prime Intellect has released a Rust version of its open-source AI programming tool Prime Agent. The project took two weeks to orchestrate more than 2,200 agents, rewriting the code from TypeScript to Rust, invoking over 10,000 isolated sandboxes, and consuming 200 billion tokens. The master orchestration agent was responsible for breaking down tasks, while other agents handled planning, writing code, review, and verification. The new code was compared against the old version, and changes that failed review were sent back for revision. Tests showed that the new version's cold start time dropped from 738 milliseconds to 56 milliseconds, and startup memory fell from 607 MB to 106 MB, a reduction of about 83%. The new version adds support for a Windows beta, and the code has been open-sourced on GitHub. In the coming weeks, the team will continue to have AI fix bugs and optimize performance, while human engineers will be responsible for identifying issues and reviewing results.
