Design sketch; no code in this repository. This folder contains only
documentation: README.md, AGENTS.md, and Ant_Colony_README.md. There is no
simulation, no Output/ directory, and nothing to import.
The idea: ants coordinate through stigmergy (pheromone traces left in the environment) and can be read as agents that reduce uncertainty about food locations. Details are in [[code/Things/Ant_Colony/Ant_Colony_README|the design notes]].
For runnable agents see [[code/Things/README|the Things overview]].
