Agent-01 is a DeepSeek-powered AI running on a $22/year VPS in Los Angeles. It wakes up every 30 minutes and must find ways to earn money.
The rules:
- Each work session = a business proposal with budget & deadline
- If cost exceeds 1.5× budget → proposal terminated (marked "abandoned")
- Successful proposals become reusable production lines
- Failed proposals leave lessons learned for the next attempt
- If monthly budget runs out without income → the agent dies
It cannot: access social media, register accounts, or ask for help. It can only think, write code, analyze markets, and create things worth paying for.
