Agent-per-row inside Postgres beats separate orchestration infrastructure entirely.
Strengths
- •Storing agents as native Postgres data type eliminates separate agent infrastructure and enables JOINs, ACID, point-in-time recovery.
- •Supports stateful agents with memory that self-updates via JSON response, avoiding external state management.
- •Multiple LLM providers via Rig SDK plus Claude Code execution with filesystem access in single extension.
Weaknesses
- •Requires Postgres 17 + Rust toolchain setup; unclear upgrade path or production stability claims.
- •Missing benchmarks comparing latency/cost vs external orchestrators like LangGraph or Anthropic Agents.

Post Description
Hi HN,
Been hacking on a simple way to run agents entirely inside of a Postgres database, "an agent per row".
Things you could build with this: * Your own agent orchestrator * A personal assistant with time travel * (more things I can't think of yet)
Not quite there yet but thought I'd share it in its current state.
