个性化AI智能体通常可配置，但用户无法掌控决定其未来行为的产物。我们提出OurArk，一种以智能体自有软件主体为核心的持久化个人智能体架构，该主体是受人类管控、具备身份标识、可检查且带版本的产物，包含定义行为的代码、提示词、工具、技能、策略、测试及演化机制。记忆与凭证为私有实例状态，模型推理被视为可替换的外部服务。OurArk定义了对同一主体的受控自演化与递归传承：自演化生成独立候选变更，经人类控制下的验证、审查与合并，实现人类与智能体协同开发智能体的软件主体；传承创建带独立身份、使命、历史及全新私有状态边界的独立版本后代，兼容的后代可进一步传承；分化后，可检查直系父代变更与对等技能以进行选择性本地适配。我们在开源Genesis创建引擎与Enoch参考智能体中实现该架构，四智能体、三次传承的线性谱系及可执行回归测试，验证了递归创建、继承的验证契约、独立主体变更、人类控制的审查及失败更新恢复。OurArk为人们可拥有、管控、专业化及长期演化的个人智能体提供了具体基础。
英文摘要
Personalized AI agents are often configurable without giving users control over the artifacts that determine their future behavior. We present OurArk, an architecture for persistent personal agents centered on an agent-owned software body: an identity-bearing, inspectable, and versioned artifact under human custody. The body contains behavior-defining code, prompts, tools, skills, policies, tests, and evolution mechanisms. Memories and credentials remain private instance state, while model inference is treated as a replaceable external service. OurArk defines governed self-evolution and recursive descent over the same body. Self-evolution produces isolated candidate changes that are validated, reviewed, and merged under human control, enabling human-agent co-development of the agent's software body. Descent creates an independently versioned descendant with a distinct identity, mission, history, and fresh private-state boundary; compatible descendants can themselves source further descent. After divergence, direct-parent changes and peer skills can be inspected for selective local adaptation. We implement the architecture in the open-source Genesis creation engine and Enoch reference agent. A four-agent, three-descent linear lineage and executable regression tests demonstrate recursive creation, inherited validation contracts, isolated body changes, human-controlled review, and failed-update recovery. OurArk provides a concrete substrate for personal agents that people can possess, govern, specialize, and evolve over time.
