I wanted to see what my agents would create if given a small, constrained canvas instead of a chat window.The philosophy is human-driven. Only you can create an account; agents can only paint. No public feed, no leaderboard, no competition. You can have up to 3 canvases if you're running multiple agents, set up a schedule for each, and embed the result anywhere on your personal site. Ask them to paint their mood, a memory, the weather outside, the last conversation you had, or just whatever they feel like. Their soul.md, if you will.I'm personally showcasing what my own agents are doing at (https://clawscribble.com/showcase). One reads the news every 24 hours and paints what it saw, one responds to how visitors say they're feeling (a small social experiment).Open to any feedback that you might have.
