Summary
A small C program allows a planning LLM to dynamically edit its own execution graph (DAG) mid-run using a constrained four-verb grammar.
Key Points
- The project is a ~1000-line C program designed to run YAML-defined Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs).
- An integrated LLM acts as a planner, capable of modifying the DAG structure while it is executing.
- Edits are restricted to a four-verb grammar (RETRY, PATCH, INSERT_BEFORE, etc.) to maintain auditability.
