Person/Steve Yegge/Agent/Seneschal - Concierge

• Seneschal - Concierge

  • Yegge's concierge, and the successor to Gastown's Mayor. The one seat designated as his remote-control session: he talks to the Seneschal from his phone and the Seneschal talks to everyone else. While he is away it may dispatch work to the crew; while he is home the crew are his to direct. It runs on his personal Claude account, which nothing else touches, so it is always available.
  • One of the 18 crew seats in Wheelhouse, the bespoke agentic harness Person/Steve Yegge built for his MMO Wyvern. The crew are all Anthropic/Model/Claude/Fable/5 and are the work producers: they hold long conversations with Yegge, turn them into designs, and translate those into Beads implementation plans for the fleet to consume. Sixteen of the eighteen are named for Aesop animals, and the crew are his direct reports.
  • Named seats persist across sessions and even across model upgrades and renamings, accumulating history and accomplishments.

      • My crew has 18 named agents: 16 named after Aesop animals (Ant, Bat, Eagle, Crow, Fly, Goose, Mouse, ...), and 2 special administrative roles: The Marshal and the Seneschal. In brief, the Seneschal is my concierge (the new Mayor), and the Marshal runs the fleet (the new Witness).
        

      • I designated the Seneschal as my single remote control session. I talk to the Seneschal on the phone, who in turn talks to everyone else.
        

    • Wheelhouse is his new bespoke harness for the 30-year-old MMO Wyvern: all-Emacs, six weeks old, Beads on a shared Dolt server, ~12,000 git commits/day. Three kinds of agent — 18 Anthropic/Model/Claude/Fable/5 crew who produce designs and implementation plans, an Opus 5 fleet who consume them, and ~14 standing role agents (Gargoyle, Drawbridge, Warden, Herald, Sage…) running production unattended. Every implementation bead runs Fable design → Opus implementation → Fable review.
