holaOS vs guild

holaOS: holaOS is an agent environment built for long-horizon work, continuity, and self-evolution. It provides agents with a structured operating system including runtime, memory, tools, apps, and durable state, enabling them to operate continuously, evolve over time, and remain inspectable across different runs.; guild: guild is a compiled Go binary with an MCP server backed by embedded SQLite, providing shared context, memory, and task coordination for AI coding agents. It allows multiple agents across different editors to share state safely using atomic locks. State persists locally and includes hybrid search (BM25+vector).
