Introducing Igor

This article details the creation of Igor, a personalized AI coding agent designed by the author. The agent runs on an Intel NUC Linux server, uses systemd for scheduling, Claude Code via API, and integrates with Forgejo for issue tracking and pull requests. The author explains the motivation behind building a custom agent instead of using existing solutions like OpenClaw, emphasizing the programmatic nature of AI agents. Key features include a 6-hour work cycle, project validation, version-controlled memories, and a dedicated website at Igor.Bot. The article is a technical walkthrough of setting up an autonomous coding assistant, relevant to IT/technology topics like DevOps, automation, and AI tooling.
