  "account": "Skills 2.0 is here, introducing Swamp, a revolutionary AI design tool. With Swamp, users can instruct their harness to create reusable behaviors, simplifying scaling, refactoring, and extension processes. These behaviors can be invoked directly from an agent or called upon by other frontier models. Swamp first scans thousands of existing extensions, but if the required service is not publicly available, Swamp will adapt to handle it.\n\nEach behavior has the capability to write structured data, searchable, or store its artifacts directly. Data is versioned and tracks its lifecycle, enabling control over information retention. Swamp securely pulls credentials from vaults, injecting secrets only as needed and redacting them from outputs. Users can call these behaviors from their harness, AI agents, command line, or as an API. Swamp can be initiated on a laptop and later scaled out to run centrally across an organization using Swamp servers and remote workers.\n\nEvery command and session is meticulously recorded, providing an auditable trail of all activities. Observability is enhanced with OpenTelemetry and SIEM integration. Swamp's behavior-centric AI design was employed by American Sound, who built an extensive library of integrations for the myriad technologies they support. By utilizing Swamp for AI agents to automate complex business processes, the team achieved remarkable results. The approach reduced token usage by 8 times and halved the time spent on each review, all while maintaining the same review behavior. By adopting Swamp, users agree to its software license and extension registry terms.",
