Seedling
Seedling is a multi-tribe civilization simulator powered by AI agents.
Core trick
Each agent's prompt is rebuilt from database state before each turn, so memories and values persist across round-robin councils.
Description
Seedling is a multi-tribe civilization simulator powered by AI agents. It explores a central question: "How does a society's willingness to change its own rules shape its long-term trajectory?"
There are four tribes being simulated: The Keepers, The Moderates, The Adapters, and The Free. Each start with distinct governance rules and different levels of rule mutability. Every agent is an autonomous LLM-powered individual with its own personality, values, memories, and relationships, reconstructed from database state before each interaction.
Agents deliberate in shared-thread round-robin councils, propose and vote on rule changes, form partnerships, and respond to random events (famine, discovery, conflict). Cultural values drift across generations as children inherit blended values from parents with mutations. The simulation compresses years of societal evolution into minutes, streaming results in real-time via SSE.
README excerpt
This is a [Next.js](https://nextjs.org) project bootstrapped with [`create-next-app`](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/api-reference/cli/create-next-app). ## Getting Started First, run the development server: ```bash npm run dev # or yarn dev # or pnpm dev # or bun dev ``` Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) with your browser to see the result. You can start editing the page by modifying `app/page.tsx`. The page auto-updates as you edit the file. This project uses [`next/font`](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/optimizing/fonts) to automatically optimize and load [Geist](https://vercel.com/font), a new font family for Vercel. ## Learn More To learn more about Next.js, take a look at the following resources: - [Next.js Documentation](https://nextjs.org/docs) - learn about Next.js features and API. - [Learn Next.js](https://nextjs.org/learn) - an interactive Next.js tutorial. You can check out [the Next.js GitHub repository](https://github.com/vercel/next.js) - your feedback and contributions are welcome! ## Deploy on Vercel The easiest way to deploy your Next.js app is to use the [Vercel Platform](https://vercel.com/new?utm_medium=default-template&filter=next.js&utm_source=create-next-app&utm_campaign=create-next-app-readme) from the creators of Next.js. Check out our [Next.js deployment documentation](https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/deploying) for more details.
