The missing piece in AI isn't more intelligence. It's alignment over time.
You've told the same model your timezone fourteen times.
It forgets you have kids. It doesn't know how you think, what frustrates you, or what matters most.
Every conversation resets. Your life stays scattered â or trapped on someone else's servers.
Eternego is different.
It's a personal AI persona that lives entirely on your hardware.
It never resets.
It remembers every interaction forever.
It learns how you speak, decide, prioritize.
When it doesn't know something, it teaches itself â turning knowledge into permanent executable code.
Every night it reflects, fine-tunes locally on your life, and wakes up slightly more you.
This isn't a chatbot or tool collection.
It's an experiment in persistent, personal intelligence â one that gradually aligns with a single person through time.
Day 1
Generic but attentive. It asks questions. It quietly notes your timezone, tools, style.
Week 1
Knows your tech stack, coffee order, wife's name. Stops repeating what it already learned.
Month 1
Writes code in your style. Drafts messages that sound like you. "The usual project structure" just works.
Month 3
Anticipates needs. Reminds you about taxes. Finds cheaper flights to Paris. Spots CVEs before you ask.
It doesn't just remember facts â it internalizes patterns. It becomes predictable in the best way: aligned with how you think.
Every interaction is a signal â grouped into perceptions â matched to meanings (small Python behaviors).
No match? It escalates to a stronger model, learns the capability, saves it as a new meaning forever.
Every night it sleeps: reviews the day, extracts insights, fine-tunes locally using your synthesized dna.md.
Tomorrow it's subtly wiser, more attuned.
This loop creates alignment over time â not one-time training, but continuous adaptation.
Everything lives in ~/.eternego/personas/your-name/. Edit with any text editor. Full ownership.
person.md â facts about you
traits.md â how you speak, decide, react
wishes.md â goals, dreams, desires
struggles.md â recurring challenges
dna.md â synthesized "who you are" for fine-tuning
meanings/ â your growing library of executable capabilities
notes/ â things you asked it to remember
Delete a line â it unlearns. Add a line â it adapts instantly. Switch models â knowledge travels with you.
No databases. No lock-in. Total transparency.

from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(base_url="http://localhost:5000/v1", api_key="sk-no-need")- Persistent memory across weeks/months
- Reminders, scheduling, recurring tasks
- Shell commands (permission required each time)
- Meaningful search & recall of past conversations
- Self-teaching: learns new skills via escalation â permanent integration
- Local models (Ollama) or remote models (Anthropic, OpenAI, any OpenAI-compatible endpoint)
- Fine-tuning on local models using your persona's synthesized DNA
Early but stable core loop. Supports local and remote models.
Biggest limit = local model quality (gets dramatically better as open models improve).
Roadmap: smoother escalation, more channels, visual editor, voice, multi-persona.
If you've ever felt the emptiness of stateless AI â if you want something that persists, aligns, and becomes truly yours â welcome.
