Turn: A Language for Agentic Computation

We present \textbf{Turn}, a compiled, actor-based programming language -- statically typed for schema inference, dynamically typed at the value level -- for agentic software: programs that reason and act autonomously by delegating inference to large language models (LLMs). Existing approaches augment general-purpose languages with frameworks, encoding critical invariants (bounded context, typed inference output, credential isolation, durable state) as application-level conventions rather than language guarantees. Turn introduces five language-level constructs that address this gap. \emph{Cognitive Type Safety} makes LLM inference a typed primitive: the compiler generates a JSON Schema from a struct definition and the VM validates model output before binding. The \emph{confidence operator} enables deterministic control flow gated on model certainty. Turn's \emph{actor-based process model}, derived from Erlang, gives each agent an isolated context window, persistent memory, and mailbox. A \emph{capability-based identity system} returns opaque, unforgeable handles from the VM host, ensuring raw credentials never enter agent memory. Finally, \emph{compile-time schema absorption} (\texttt{use schema:: }) synthesizes typed API bindings from external specifications at compile time; the \texttt{openapi} adapter is shipped with \texttt{graphql}, \texttt{fhir}, and \texttt{mcp} in active development. We describe the language design, type rules, schema semantics, and a Rust-based bytecode VM, and evaluate Turn against representative agentic workloads. Turn is open source at https://github.com/ekizito96/Turn.

Odin: Multi-Signal Graph Intelligence for Autonomous Discovery in Knowledge Graphs

We present Odin, the first production-deployed graph intelligence engine for autonomous discovery of meaningful patterns in knowledge graphs without prior specification. Unlike retrieval-based systems that answer predefined queries, Odin guides exploration through the COMPASS (Composite Oriented Multi-signal Path Assessment) score, a novel metric that combines (1) structural importance via Personalized PageRank, (2) semantic plausibility through Neural Probabilistic Logic Learning (NPLL) used as a discriminative filter rather than generative model, (3) temporal relevance with configurable decay, and (4) community-aware guidance through GNN-identified bridge entities and inter-community affinity scores. This multi-signal integration, particularly the bridge scoring mechanism, addresses the "echo chamber" problem where graph exploration becomes trapped in dense local communities. We formalize the autonomous discovery problem, prove theoretical properties of our scoring function, and demonstrate that beam search with multi-signal guidance achieves $O(b \cdot h)$ complexity while maintaining high recall compared to exhaustive exploration. To our knowledge, Odin represents the first autonomous discovery system deployed in regulated production environments (healthcare and insurance), demonstrating significant improvements in pattern discovery quality and analyst efficiency. Our approach maintains complete provenance traceability -- a critical requirement for regulated industries where hallucination is unacceptable.
