SQLite is the best home for AI agents
SQLite has emerged as an ideal platform for managing AI agents, particularly with the development of mvSQLite. This database allows for efficient handling of multi-versioned data, enabling agents to access previous states of their filesystems without additional costs. The Willow agent harness leverages these capabilities to support millions of agents and their applications seamlessly.
- ▪In 2022, mvSQLite was created as a scalable, time-traveling SQLite-compatible database.
- ▪AI agents can now build and deploy applications at a significantly faster pace than before.
- ▪Willow, the agent harness for Bridge, utilizes SQLite's strengths to manage agent workloads effectively.

SQLite is the best home for AI agents 2026-05-12 ThoughtsAbout #willow#mvsqlite In 2022 I built mvSQLite, the massively scalable, time-traveling SQLite-compatible distributed database. Three months later, in November, OpenAI released GPT-3.5, and four years later AI agents are everywhere. People deploy agents and ask their agents to build and deploy apps every day - at a pace several orders of magnitude faster than in the pre-LLM era. Now I'm building Willow, the agent harness for Bridge. It turns out that AI agents are the perfect kind of workload for SQLite, and multi-tenant agent harnesses are the perfect kind of workload for mvSQLite. Entropy is bad LLMs destroy information when they work.
