Selvedge AI coding agent learns from past changes

Selvedge, an AI coding agent tool, has released version 0.3.7, introducing a new feature called `prior_attempts`. This update allows the AI agent to query its past actions and reasoning before making code changes, closing the loop on its development process. Previously, the agent's logs were write-only, but `prior_attempts` enables the AI to learn from previous modifications and their outcomes, preventing the reintroduction of fixed bugs. AI

IMPACT Enhances AI coding agent's ability to learn from past actions, potentially reducing bugs and improving efficiency.
