+ <![CDATA[# SIA - The Self Improving Agent
+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+ <![CDATA[# SIA - The Self Improving Agent
+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+ <![CDATA[# SIA - The Self Improving Agent
+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+ <![CDATA[# SIA - The Self Improving Agent
+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+ <![CDATA[# SIA - The Self Improving Agent
+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+
+The main context is regenerated for each iteration.

+Together with the system prompt and available core actions it forms the prompt for the LLM.
+The LLM responds with one core action.
+
+### Core Actions
+
+There are only a few core actions:
+- Starting a script
+- Deleting data from context
+- Stopping SIA
+- Reading standard input
+- Writing to standard output
+- Reasoning
+
+### Scripts
+
+Scripts can run in one of 2 modes: single-shot or repeat.
+Their mode and output (stdout and stderr) stay in the context until they are explicitly removed.

+ <![CDATA[# SIA - The Self Improving Agent
+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+ <![CDATA[# SIA - The Self Improving Agent
+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+ <![CDATA[# SIA - The Self Improving Agent
+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+ <![CDATA[# SIA - The Self Improving Agent
+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+ <![CDATA[# SIA - The Self Improving Agent
+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+- Deleting data from context
+- Stopping SIA
+- Reading standard input

+ <![CDATA[# SIA - The Self Improving Agent
+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+## Working principles
+
+The main context is regenerated for each iteration.
+It contains info about the system and previous actions that have not been deleted.
+Together with the system prompt and available core actions it forms the prompt for the LLM.
+The LLM responds with one core action.
+
+### Core Actions
+
+There are only a few core actions:
+- Starting a script
+- Deleting data from context
+- Stopping SIA
+- Reading standard input
+- Writing to standard output
+- Reasoning
+
+### Scripts
+
+Scripts can run in one of 2 modes: single-shot or repeat.
+Their mode and output (stdout and stderr) stay in the context until they are explicitly removed.
+In this way the agent manages what information is available in the context.
+
+#### Single-shot script
+
+The script is executed once.
+This is useful for most operations e.g. writing to or moving a file or downloading content from the internet.
+The next iteration starts after the scripts has finished.
+
+#### Repeat script
+
+The script is restarted on each iteration.
+This is useful for monitoring files or the file system.
+commands like `head` and `tail` can be used to limit the data in context.
+The next iteration starts after all repeat scripts in context have finished.
+
+### Use of XML
+
+The context and actions are formatted as XML.
+For the context this adds clear rules for escaping.
+This is usefull in case a previous context is embedded.
+
+The LLM is free to escape data any way it wants,
+as long as it results in valid XML.
+The response is validated against a schema.
+
+#### XML Data Flow
+Entries store their content as raw text. During context compilation, the XML formatter
+wraps text content in CDATA sections, except when the content contains CDATA closing sequences.
+In those cases, the formatter uses standard XML escaping.
+
+This separation between storage and formatting:
+- Keeps entry data clean and unescaped
+- Centralizes XML formatting rules
+- Makes it easy to change escaping rules without modifying entries
+- Allows different formatting for different use cases
+
+The Context is escaped using CDATA blocks.
+Except when the data contains CDATA closing sequences.
+Then the whole block is escaped using standard XML escaping.
+
+
+### The SIA process
+
+SIA is typically runs with the `restart.sh` script.
+This is a simple shell script that runs SIA in a loop.
+When stopped, SIA restarts and reloads the Python files.
+This is how SIA can self-update.
+
+SIA can also run SIA processes as script.
+This can be used for testing updates to the LLM or core functionality.
+
+### Server for debuggin and human input
+
+SIA can be started with an optional `--server` flag.
+This starts a web server that can be used to interact with SIA.
+It is made, specifically for reinforcement learning by human feedback.
+The web interface takes over standard input and output.
+It will display the context for editing before handing it to the LLM.
+After each run of the LLM, before parsing, it will display the reasoning and actions.
+It interactively displays if the actions can be parsed.
+At any time, the user can write to the standard input of SIA.

+ My context usage is high.

+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+## Working principles
+
+The main context is regenerated for each iteration.
+It contains info about the system and previous actions that have not been deleted.
+Together with the system prompt and available core actions it forms the prompt for the LLM.
+The LLM responds with one core action.
+
+### Core Actions
+
+There are only a few core actions:
+- Starting a script
+- Deleting data from context
+- Stopping SIA
+- Reading standard input
+- Writing to standard output
+- Reasoning
+
+### Scripts
+
+Scripts can run in one of 2 modes: single-shot or repeat.
+Their mode and output (stdout and stderr) stay in the context until they are explicitly removed.
+In this way the agent manages what information is available in the context.
+
+#### Single-shot script
+
+The script is executed once.
+This is useful for most operations e.g. writing to or moving a file or downloading content from the internet.
+The next iteration starts after the scripts has finished.
+
+#### Repeat script
+
+The script is restarted on each iteration.
+This is useful for monitoring files or the file system.
+commands like `head` and `tail` can be used to limit the data in context.
+The next iteration starts after all repeat scripts in context have finished.
+
+### Use of XML
+
+The context and actions are formatted as XML.
+For the context this adds clear rules for escaping.
+This is usefull in case a previous context is embedded.
+
+The LLM is free to escape data any way it wants,
+as long as it results in valid XML.
+The response is validated against a schema.
+
+#### XML Data Flow
+Entries store their content as raw text. During context compilation, the XML formatter
+wraps text content in CDATA sections, except when the content contains CDATA closing sequences.
+In those cases, the formatter uses standard XML escaping.
+
+This separation between storage and formatting:
+- Keeps entry data clean and unescaped
+- Centralizes XML formatting rules
+- Makes it easy to change escaping rules without modifying entries
+- Allows different formatting for different use cases
+
+The Context is escaped using CDATA blocks.
+Except when the data contains CDATA closing sequences.
+Then the whole block is escaped using standard XML escaping.
+
+
+### The SIA process
+
+SIA is typically runs with the `restart.sh` script.
+This is a simple shell script that runs SIA in a loop.
+When stopped, SIA restarts and reloads the Python files.
+This is how SIA can self-update.
+
+SIA can also run SIA processes as script.
+This can be used for testing updates to the LLM or core functionality.
+
+### Server for debuggin and human input
+
+SIA can be started with an optional `--server` flag.
+This starts a web server that can be used to interact with SIA.
+It is made, specifically for reinforcement learning by human feedback.
+The web interface takes over standard input and output.
+It will display the context for editing before handing it to the LLM.
+After each run of the LLM, before parsing, it will display the reasoning and actions.
+It interactively displays if the actions can be parsed.
+At any time, the user can write to the standard input of SIA.
+

+
+The main context is regenerated for each iteration.
+It contains info about the system and previous actions that have not been deleted.

+The LLM responds with one core action.
+
+### Core Actions
+
+There are only a few core actions:
+- Starting a script
+- Deleting data from context
+- Stopping SIA
+- Reading standard input
+- Writing to standard output
+- Reasoning
+
+### Scripts
+
+Scripts can run in one of 2 modes: single-shot or repeat.
+Their mode and output (stdout and stderr) stay in the context until they are explicitly removed.
+In this way the agent manages what information is available in the context.
+
+#### Single-shot script
+
+The script is executed once.
+This is useful for most operations e.g. writing to or moving a file or downloading content from the internet.
+The next iteration starts after the scripts has finished.
+
+#### Repeat script
+
+The script is restarted on each iteration.
+This is useful for monitoring files or the file system.
+commands like `head` and `tail` can be used to limit the data in context.
+The next iteration starts after all repeat scripts in context have finished.
+
+### Use of XML
+
+The context and actions are formatted as XML.
+For the context this adds clear rules for escaping.
+This is usefull in case a previous context is embedded.
+
+The LLM is free to escape data any way it wants,
+as long as it results in valid XML.
+The response is validated against a schema.
+
+#### XML Data Flow
+Entries store their content as raw text. During context compilation, the XML formatter
+wraps text content in CDATA sections, except when the content contains CDATA closing sequences.
+In those cases, the formatter uses standard XML escaping.
+
+This separation between storage and formatting:
+- Keeps entry data clean and unescaped
+- Centralizes XML formatting rules
+- Makes it easy to change escaping rules without modifying entries
+- Allows different formatting for different use cases
+
+The Context is escaped using CDATA blocks.
+Except when the data contains CDATA closing sequences.
+Then the whole block is escaped using standard XML escaping.
+
+
+### The SIA process
+
+SIA is typically runs with the `restart.sh` script.
+This is a simple shell script that runs SIA in a loop.
+When stopped, SIA restarts and reloads the Python files.
+This is how SIA can self-update.
+
+SIA can also run SIA processes as script.
+This can be used for testing updates to the LLM or core functionality.
+
+### Server for debuggin and human input
+
+SIA can be started with an optional `--server` flag.
+This starts a web server that can be used to interact with SIA.
+It is made, specifically for reinforcement learning by human feedback.
+The web interface takes over standard input and output.
+It will display the context for editing before handing it to the LLM.
+After each run of the LLM, before parsing, it will display the reasoning and actions.
+It interactively displays if the actions can be parsed.
+At any time, the user can write to the standard input of SIA.

+ <![CDATA[# SIA - The Self Improving Agent
+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+The main context is regenerated for each iteration.
+It contains info about the system and previous actions that have not been deleted.
+Together with the system prompt and available core actions it forms the prompt for the LLM.
+The LLM responds with one core action.
+
+### Core Actions
+
+There are only a few core actions:
+- Starting a script
+- Deleting data from context
+- Stopping SIA
+- Reading standard input
+- Writing to standard output
+- Reasoning
+
+### Scripts
+
+Scripts can run in one of 2 modes: single-shot or repeat.
+Their mode and output (stdout and stderr) stay in the context until they are explicitly removed.
+In this way the agent manages what information is available in the context.
+
+#### Single-shot script
+
+The script is executed once.
+This is useful for most operations e.g. writing to or moving a file or downloading content from the internet.
+The next iteration starts after the scripts has finished.
+
+#### Repeat script
+
+The script is restarted on each iteration.
+This is useful for monitoring files or the file system.
+commands like `head` and `tail` can be used to limit the data in context.
+The next iteration starts after all repeat scripts in context have finished.
+
+### Use of XML
+
+The context and actions are formatted as XML.
+For the context this adds clear rules for escaping.
+This is usefull in case a previous context is embedded.
+
+The LLM is free to escape data any way it wants,
+as long as it results in valid XML.
+The response is validated against a schema.
+
+#### XML Data Flow
+Entries store their content as raw text. During context compilation, the XML formatter
+wraps text content in CDATA sections, except when the content contains CDATA closing sequences.
+In those cases, the formatter uses standard XML escaping.
+
+This separation between storage and formatting:
+- Keeps entry data clean and unescaped
+- Centralizes XML formatting rules
+- Makes it easy to change escaping rules without modifying entries
+- Allows different formatting for different use cases
+
+The Context is escaped using CDATA blocks.
+Except when the data contains CDATA closing sequences.
+Then the whole block is escaped using standard XML escaping.
+
+
+### The SIA process
+
+SIA is typically runs with the `restart.sh` script.
+This is a simple shell script that runs SIA in a loop.
+When stopped, SIA restarts and reloads the Python files.
+This is how SIA can self-update.
+
+SIA can also run SIA processes as script.
+This can be used for testing updates to the LLM or core functionality.
+
+### Server for debuggin and human input
+
+SIA can be started with an optional `--server` flag.
+This starts a web server that can be used to interact with SIA.
+It is made, specifically for reinforcement learning by human feedback.
+The web interface takes over standard input and output.
+It will display the context for editing before handing it to the LLM.
+After each run of the LLM, before parsing, it will display the reasoning and actions.
+It interactively displays if the actions can be parsed.
+At any time, the user can write to the standard input of SIA.

+## Working principles
+
+The main context is regenerated for each iteration.
+It contains info about the system and previous actions that have not been deleted.
+Together with the system prompt and available core actions it forms the prompt for the LLM.
+The LLM responds with one core action.
+
+### Core Actions
+
+There are only a few core actions:
+- Starting a script
+- Deleting data from context
+- Stopping SIA
+- Reading standard input
+- Writing to standard output
+- Reasoning
+
+### Scripts
+
+Scripts can run in one of 2 modes: single-shot or repeat.
+Their mode and output (stdout and stderr) stay in the context until they are explicitly removed.
+In this way the agent manages what information is available in the context.
+
+#### Single-shot script
+
+The script is executed once.
+This is useful for most operations e.g. writing to or moving a file or downloading content from the internet.
+The next iteration starts after the scripts has finished.
+
+#### Repeat script
+
+The script is restarted on each iteration.
+This is useful for monitoring files or the file system.
+commands like `head` and `tail` can be used to limit the data in context.
+The next iteration starts after all repeat scripts in context have finished.
+
+### Use of XML
+
+The context and actions are formatted as XML.
+For the context this adds clear rules for escaping.
+This is usefull in case a previous context is embedded.
+
+The LLM is free to escape data any way it wants,
+as long as it results in valid XML.
+The response is validated against a schema.
+
+#### XML Data Flow
+Entries store their content as raw text. During context compilation, the XML formatter
+wraps text content in CDATA sections, except when the content contains CDATA closing sequences.
+In those cases, the formatter uses standard XML escaping.
+
+This separation between storage and formatting:
+- Keeps entry data clean and unescaped
+- Centralizes XML formatting rules
+- Makes it easy to change escaping rules without modifying entries
+- Allows different formatting for different use cases
+
+The Context is escaped using CDATA blocks.
+Except when the data contains CDATA closing sequences.
+Then the whole block is escaped using standard XML escaping.
+
+
+### The SIA process
+
+SIA is typically runs with the `restart.sh` script.
+This is a simple shell script that runs SIA in a loop.
+When stopped, SIA restarts and reloads the Python files.
+This is how SIA can self-update.
+
+SIA can also run SIA processes as script.
+This can be used for testing updates to the LLM or core functionality.
+
+### Server for debuggin and human input
+
+SIA can be started with an optional `--server` flag.
+This starts a web server that can be used to interact with SIA.
+It is made, specifically for reinforcement learning by human feedback.
+The web interface takes over standard input and output.
+It will display the context for editing before handing it to the LLM.
+After each run of the LLM, before parsing, it will display the reasoning and actions.
+It interactively displays if the actions can be parsed.
+At any time, the user can write to the standard input of SIA.
+

+ <![CDATA[# SIA - The Self Improving Agent
+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+
+Scripts can run in one of 2 modes: single-shot or repeat.
+Their mode and output (stdout and stderr) stay in the context until they are explicitly removed.
+In this way the agent manages what information is available in the context.
+
+#### Single-shot script
+
+The script is executed once.
+This is useful for most operations e.g. writing to or moving a file or downloading content from the internet.
+The next iteration starts after the scripts has finished.
+
+#### Repeat script
+
+The script is restarted on each iteration.
+This is useful for monitoring files or the file system.
+commands like `head` and `tail` can be used to limit the data in context.
+The next iteration starts after all repeat scripts in context have finished.
+
+### Use of XML
+
+The context and actions are formatted as XML.
+For the context this adds clear rules for escaping.
+This is usefull in case a previous context is embedded.
+
+The LLM is free to escape data any way it wants,

+wraps text content in CDATA sections, except when the content contains CDATA closing sequences.
+In those cases, the formatter uses standard XML escaping.
+
+This separation between storage and formatting:
+- Keeps entry data clean and unescaped
+- Centralizes XML formatting rules
+- Makes it easy to change escaping rules without modifying entries
+- Allows different formatting for different use cases
+
+The Context is escaped using CDATA blocks.
+Except when the data contains CDATA closing sequences.
+Then the whole block is escaped using standard XML escaping.
+

+### The SIA process
+
+SIA is typically runs with the `restart.sh` script.

+
+SIA can also run SIA processes as script.
+This can be used for testing updates to the LLM or core functionality.
+
+### Server for debuggin and human input
+
+SIA can be started with an optional `--server` flag.
+This starts a web server that can be used to interact with SIA.
+It is made, specifically for reinforcement learning by human feedback.
+The web interface takes over standard input and output.
+It will display the context for editing before handing it to the LLM.
+After each run of the LLM, before parsing, it will display the reasoning and actions.
+It interactively displays if the actions can be parsed.
+At any time, the user can write to the standard input of SIA.

+ <![CDATA[# SIA - The Self Improving Agent
+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+ <![CDATA[# SIA - The Self Improving Agent
+
+SIA is an agentic artificial intelligence system that autonomously completes complex tasks by writing and executing scripts.
+It uses a Large Language Model (LLM) which operates in a loop.
+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+## Working principles
+
+The main context is regenerated for each iteration.
+It contains info about the system and previous actions that have not been deleted.
+Together with the system prompt and available core actions it forms the prompt for the LLM.
+The LLM responds with one core action.
+
+### Core Actions
+
+There are only a few core actions:
+- Starting a script
+- Deleting data from context
+- Stopping SIA
+- Reading standard input
+- Writing to standard output
+- Reasoning
+
+### Scripts
+
+Scripts can run in one of 2 modes: single-shot or repeat.
+Their mode and output (stdout and stderr) stay in the context until they are explicitly removed.
+In this way the agent manages what information is available in the context.
+
+#### Single-shot script
+
+The script is executed once.
+This is useful for most operations e.g. writing to or moving a file or downloading content from the internet.
+The next iteration starts after the scripts has finished.
+
+#### Repeat script
+
+The script is restarted on each iteration.
+This is useful for monitoring files or the file system.
+commands like `head` and `tail` can be used to limit the data in context.
+The next iteration starts after all repeat scripts in context have finished.
+
+### Use of XML
+
+The context and actions are formatted as XML.
+For the context this adds clear rules for escaping.
+This is usefull in case a previous context is embedded.
+
+The LLM is free to escape data any way it wants,
+as long as it results in valid XML.
+The response is validated against a schema.
+
+#### XML Data Flow
+Entries store their content as raw text. During context compilation, the XML formatter
+wraps text content in CDATA sections, except when the content contains CDATA closing sequences.
+In those cases, the formatter uses standard XML escaping.
+
+This separation between storage and formatting:
+- Keeps entry data clean and unescaped
+- Centralizes XML formatting rules
+- Makes it easy to change escaping rules without modifying entries
+- Allows different formatting for different use cases
+
+The Context is escaped using CDATA blocks.
+Except when the data contains CDATA closing sequences.
+Then the whole block is escaped using standard XML escaping.
+
+
+### The SIA process
+
+SIA is typically runs with the `restart.sh` script.
+This is a simple shell script that runs SIA in a loop.
+When stopped, SIA restarts and reloads the Python files.
+This is how SIA can self-update.
+
+SIA can also run SIA processes as script.
+This can be used for testing updates to the LLM or core functionality.
+
+### Server for debuggin and human input
+
+SIA can be started with an optional `--server` flag.
+This starts a web server that can be used to interact with SIA.
+It is made, specifically for reinforcement learning by human feedback.
+The web interface takes over standard input and output.
+It will display the context for editing before handing it to the LLM.
+After each run of the LLM, before parsing, it will display the reasoning and actions.
+It interactively displays if the actions can be parsed.
+At any time, the user can write to the standard input of SIA.

+Each iteration a context is updated with system info and a list of previous reasoning and actions.
+The agent responds with a new reasoning or an action.
+Context, reasoning and actions are stored in a file for each iteration.
+SIA can read past iterations to improve its reasoning and actions.
+It can improve in two ways:
+- By finetuning the LLM with a better reasoning or action for a given context
+- By modifying its own source code
+
+## Example
+
+This example shows a typical context with some monitored items and previous actions.
+Between each of the responses, the context would be updated.

+The main context is regenerated for each iteration.
+It contains info about the system and previous actions that have not been deleted.
+Together with the system prompt and available core actions it forms the prompt for the LLM.
+The LLM responds with one core action.
+
+### Core Actions
+
+There are only a few core actions:
+- Starting a script
+- Deleting data from context
+- Stopping SIA
+- Reading standard input
+- Writing to standard output
+- Reasoning
+
+### Scripts
+
+Scripts can run in one of 2 modes: single-shot or repeat.
+Their mode and output (stdout and stderr) stay in the context until they are explicitly removed.
+In this way the agent manages what information is available in the context.
+
+#### Single-shot script
+
+The script is executed once.
+This is useful for most operations e.g. writing to or moving a file or downloading content from the internet.
+The next iteration starts after the scripts has finished.
+
+#### Repeat script
+
+The script is restarted on each iteration.
+This is useful for monitoring files or the file system.
+commands like `head` and `tail` can be used to limit the data in context.
+The next iteration starts after all repeat scripts in context have finished.
+
+### Use of XML
+
+The context and actions are formatted as XML.
+For the context this adds clear rules for escaping.
+This is usefull in case a previous context is embedded.
+
+The LLM is free to escape data any way it wants,
+as long as it results in valid XML.
+The response is validated against a schema.
+
+#### XML Data Flow
+Entries store their content as raw text. During context compilation, the XML formatter
+wraps text content in CDATA sections, except when the content contains CDATA closing sequences.
+In those cases, the formatter uses standard XML escaping.
+
+This separation between storage and formatting:
+- Keeps entry data clean and unescaped
+- Centralizes XML formatting rules
+- Makes it easy to change escaping rules without modifying entries
+- Allows different formatting for different use cases
+
+The Context is escaped using CDATA blocks.
+Except when the data contains CDATA closing sequences.
+Then the whole block is escaped using standard XML escaping.
+
+
+### The SIA process
+
+SIA is typically runs with the `restart.sh` script.
+This is a simple shell script that runs SIA in a loop.
+When stopped, SIA restarts and reloads the Python files.
+This is how SIA can self-update.
+
+SIA can also run SIA processes as script.
+This can be used for testing updates to the LLM or core functionality.
+
+### Server for debuggin and human input
+
+SIA can be started with an optional `--server` flag.
+This starts a web server that can be used to interact with SIA.
+It is made, specifically for reinforcement learning by human feedback.
+The web interface takes over standard input and output.
+It will display the context for editing before handing it to the LLM.
+After each run of the LLM, before parsing, it will display the reasoning and actions.
+It interactively displays if the actions can be parsed.
+At any time, the user can write to the standard input of SIA.
+

+The conversation is kept in context to understand the user's expected response.
+If the context was near full, it would be summarized and cleaned up.
+
+The `script` output is also kept in context.
+If the file was updated often, it could be replaced by a repeated `cat`, like the general info.
+
+## Working principles
+
+The main context is regenerated for each iteration.
+It contains info about the system and previous actions that have not been deleted.
+Together with the system prompt and available core actions it forms the prompt for the LLM.
+The LLM responds with one core action.
+
+### Core Actions
+
+There are only a few core actions:
+- Starting a script
+- Deleting data from context
+- Stopping SIA
+- Reading standard input
+- Writing to standard output
+- Reasoning
+
+### Scripts
+
+Scripts can run in one of 2 modes: single-shot or repeat.

+## Working principles
+
+The main context is regenerated for each iteration.
+It contains info about the system and previous actions that have not been deleted.
+Together with the system prompt and available core actions it forms the prompt for the LLM.
+The LLM responds with one core action.
+
+### Core Actions
+
+There are only a few core actions:
+- Starting a script
+- Deleting data from context
+- Stopping SIA
+- Reading standard input
+- Writing to standard output
+- Reasoning
+
+### Scripts
+
+Scripts can run in one of 2 modes: single-shot or repeat.
+Their mode and output (stdout and stderr) stay in the context until they are explicitly removed.
+In this way the agent manages what information is available in the context.
+
+#### Single-shot script
+
+The script is executed once.
+This is useful for most operations e.g. writing to or moving a file or downloading content from the internet.
+The next iteration starts after the scripts has finished.
+
+#### Repeat script
+
+The script is restarted on each iteration.
+This is useful for monitoring files or the file system.
+commands like `head` and `tail` can be used to limit the data in context.
+The next iteration starts after all repeat scripts in context have finished.
+
+### Use of XML
+
+The context and actions are formatted as XML.
+For the context this adds clear rules for escaping.
+This is usefull in case a previous context is embedded.
+
+The LLM is free to escape data any way it wants,
+as long as it results in valid XML.
+The response is validated against a schema.
+
+#### XML Data Flow
+Entries store their content as raw text. During context compilation, the XML formatter
+wraps text content in CDATA sections, except when the content contains CDATA closing sequences.
+In those cases, the formatter uses standard XML escaping.
+
+This separation between storage and formatting:
+- Keeps entry data clean and unescaped
+- Centralizes XML formatting rules
+- Makes it easy to change escaping rules without modifying entries
+- Allows different formatting for different use cases
+
+The Context is escaped using CDATA blocks.
+Except when the data contains CDATA closing sequences.
+Then the whole block is escaped using standard XML escaping.
+
+
+### The SIA process
+
+SIA is typically runs with the `restart.sh` script.
+This is a simple shell script that runs SIA in a loop.
+When stopped, SIA restarts and reloads the Python files.
+This is how SIA can self-update.
+
+SIA can also run SIA processes as script.
+This can be used for testing updates to the LLM or core functionality.
+
+### Server for debuggin and human input
+
+SIA can be started with an optional `--server` flag.
+This starts a web server that can be used to interact with SIA.
+It is made, specifically for reinforcement learning by human feedback.
+The web interface takes over standard input and output.
+It will display the context for editing before handing it to the LLM.
+After each run of the LLM, before parsing, it will display the reasoning and actions.
+It interactively displays if the actions can be parsed.
+At any time, the user can write to the standard input of SIA.
+
