Key Capabilities

πŸ€– 60+ Specialized Agents - Ready-to-use AI agents for coding, code review, testing, security audits, documentation, and DevOps. Each agent is optimized for its specific role.

🐝 Coordinated Agent Teams - Run unlimited agents simultaneously in organized swarms. Agents spawn sub-workers, communicate, share context, and divide work automatically using hierarchical (queen/workers) or mesh (peer-to-peer) patterns.

🧠 Learns From Your Workflow - The system remembers what works. Successful patterns are stored and reused, routing similar tasks to the best-performing agents. Gets smarter over time.

πŸ”Œ Works With Any LLM - Switch between Claude, GPT, Gemini, Cohere, or local models like Llama. Automatic failover if one provider is unavailable. Smart routing picks the cheapest option that meets quality requirements.

⚑ Plugs Into Claude Code - Native integration via MCP (Model Context Protocol). Use ruflo commands directly in your Claude Code sessions with full tool access.

πŸ”’ Production-Ready Security - Built-in protection against prompt injection, input validation, path traversal prevention, command injection blocking, and safe credential handling.

🧩 Extensible Plugin System - Add custom capabilities with the plugin SDK. Create workers, hooks, providers, and security modules. Share plugins via the decentralized IPFS marketplace.

</details> <details> <summary>⚑ <strong>Agent Booster (WASM)</strong> β€” 352x faster code transforms, skip LLM entirely</summary>

Agent Booster uses WebAssembly to handle simple code transformations without calling the LLM at all. When the hooks system detects a simple task, it routes directly to Agent Booster for instant results.

Supported Transform Intents:

IntentWhat It DoesExample
var-to-constConvert var/let to constvar x = 1 β†’ const x = 1
add-typesAdd TypeScript type annotationsfunction foo(x) β†’ function foo(x: string)
add-error-handlingWrap in try/catchAdds proper error handling
async-awaitConvert promises to async/await.then() chains β†’ await
add-loggingAdd console.log statementsAdds debug logging
remove-consoleStrip console.* callsRemoves all console statements

Hook Signals:

When you see these in hook output, the system is telling you how to optimize:

# Agent Booster available - skip LLM entirely
[AGENT_BOOSTER_AVAILABLE] Intent: var-to-const
β†’ Use Edit tool directly, 352x faster than LLM

# Model recommendation for Task tool
[TASK_MODEL_RECOMMENDATION] Use model="haiku"
β†’ Pass model="haiku" to Task tool for cost savings

</details> <details> <summary>πŸ’° <strong>Token Optimizer</strong> β€” 30-50% token reduction</summary>

The Token Optimizer integrates agentic-flow optimizations to reduce API costs by compressing context and caching results.

Savings Breakdown:

OptimizationToken SavingsHow It Works
ReasoningBank retrieval-32%Fetches relevant patterns instead of full context
Agent Booster edits-15%Simple edits skip LLM entirely
Cache (95% hit rate)-10%Reuses embeddings and patterns
Optimal batch size-20%Groups related operations
Combined30-50%Stacks multiplicatively

Usage:

import { getTokenOptimizer } from '@claude-flow/integration';
const optimizer = await getTokenOptimizer();

// Get compact context (32% fewer tokens)
const ctx = await optimizer.getCompactContext("auth patterns");

// Optimized edit (352x faster for simple transforms)
await optimizer.optimizedEdit(file, oldStr, newStr, "typescript");

// Optimal config for swarm (100% success rate)
const config = optimizer.getOptimalConfig(agentCount);
</details> <details> <summary>πŸ›‘οΈ <strong>Anti-Drift Swarm Configuration</strong> β€” Prevent goal drift in multi-agent work</summary>

Complex swarms can drift from their original goals. Ruflo V3 includes anti-drift defaults that prevent agents from going off-task.

Recommended Configuration:

// Anti-drift defaults (ALWAYS use for coding tasks)
swarm_init({
  topology: "hierarchical",  // Single coordinator enforces alignment
  maxAgents: 8,              // Smaller team = less drift surface
  strategy: "specialized"    // Clear roles reduce ambiguity
})

Why This Prevents Drift:

SettingAnti-Drift Benefit
hierarchicalCoordinator validates each output against goal, catches divergence early
maxAgents: 6-8Fewer agents = less coordination overhead, easier alignment
specializedClear boundaries - each agent knows exactly what to do, no overlap
raft consensusLeader maintains authoritative state, no conflicting decisions

Additional Anti-Drift Measures:

  • Frequent checkpoints via post-task hooks
  • Shared memory namespace for all agents
  • Short task cycles with verification gates
  • Hierarchical coordinator reviews all outputs

Task β†’ Agent Routing (Anti-Drift):

CodeTask TypeRecommended Agents
1Bug Fixcoordinator, researcher, coder, tester
3Featurecoordinator, architect, coder, tester, reviewer
5Refactorcoordinator, architect, coder, reviewer
7Performancecoordinator, perf-engineer, coder

MCP Integration for Codex

When you run init --codex, the MCP server is automatically registered:

# Verify MCP is registered
codex mcp list

# If not present, add manually:
codex mcp add ruflo -- npx ruflo mcp start

Self-Learning Workflow

1. LEARN:   memory_search(query="task keywords") β†’ Find similar patterns
2. COORD:   swarm_init(topology="hierarchical") β†’ Set up coordination
3. EXECUTE: YOU write code, run commands       β†’ Codex does real work
4. REMEMBER: memory_store(key, value, namespace="patterns") β†’ Save for future

The Intelligence Loop (ADR-050) automates this cycle through hooks. Each session automatically:

  • Builds a knowledge graph from memory entries (PageRank + Jaccard similarity)
  • Injects ranked context into every route decision
  • Tracks edit patterns and generates new insights
  • Boosts confidence for useful patterns, decays unused ones
  • Saves snapshots so you can track improvement with node .claude/helpers/hook-handler.cjs stats

Add ruflo as an MCP server for seamless integration:

# Add ruflo MCP server to Claude Code
claude mcp add ruflo -- npx -y ruflo@latest mcp start

# Verify installation
claude mcp list

Once added, Claude Code can use all 175+ ruflo MCP tools directly:

  • swarm_init - Initialize agent swarms
  • agent_spawn - Spawn specialized agents
  • memory_search - Search patterns with HNSW (150x faster)
  • hooks_route - Intelligent task routing
  • And 170+ more tools...

What is it exactly? Agents that learn, build and work perpetually.

<details> <summary>πŸ†š <strong>Why Ruflo v3?</strong></summary>

Ruflo v3 introduces self-learning neural capabilities that no other agent orchestration framework offers. While competitors require manual agent configuration and static routing, Ruflo learns from every task execution, prevents catastrophic forgetting of successful patterns, and intelligently routes work to specialized experts.

</details> <details> <summary>πŸš€ <strong>Key Differentiators</strong> β€” Self-learning, memory optimization, fault tolerance</summary>

What makes Ruflo different from other agent frameworks? These 10 capabilities work together to create a system that learns from experience, runs efficiently on any hardware, and keeps working even when things go wrong.

</details> <details> <summary>πŸ’° <strong>Intelligent 3-Tier Model Routing</strong> β€” Save 75% on API costs, extend Claude Max 2.5x</summary>

Not every task needs the most powerful (and expensive) model. Ruflo analyzes each request and automatically routes it to the cheapest handler that can do the job well. Simple code transforms skip the LLM entirely using WebAssembly. Medium tasks use faster, cheaper models. Only complex architecture decisions use Opus.

Cost & Usage Benefits:

BenefitImpact
πŸ’΅ API Cost Reduction75% lower costs by using right-sized models
⏱️ Claude Max Extension2.5x more tasks within your quota limits
πŸš€ Faster Simple Tasks<1ms for transforms vs 2-5s with LLM
🎯 Zero Wasted TokensSimple edits use 0 tokens (WASM handles them)

Routing Tiers:

Benchmark Results: 100% routing accuracy, 0.57ms avg routing decision latency

</details> <details> <summary>πŸ“‹ <strong>Spec-Driven Development</strong> β€” Build complete specs, implement without drift</summary>

Complex projects fail when implementation drifts from the original plan. Ruflo solves this with a spec-first approach: define your architecture through ADRs (Architecture Decision Records), organize code into DDD bounded contexts, and let the system enforce compliance as agents work. The result is implementations that match specifications β€” even across multi-agent swarms working in parallel.

How It Prevents Drift:

CapabilityWhat It Does
🎯 Spec-First PlanningAgents generate ADRs before writing code, capturing requirements and decisions
πŸ” Real-Time ComplianceStatusline shows ADR compliance %, catches deviations immediately
🚧 Bounded ContextsEach domain (Security, Memory, etc.) has clear boundaries agents can't cross
βœ… Validation Gateshooks progress blocks merges that violate specifications
πŸ”„ Living DocumentationADRs update automatically as requirements evolve

Specification Features:

FeatureDescription
Architecture Decision Records10 ADRs defining system behavior, integration patterns, and security requirements
Domain-Driven Design5 bounded contexts with clean interfaces preventing cross-domain pollution
Automated Spec GenerationAgents create specs from requirements using SPARC methodology
Drift DetectionContinuous monitoring flags when code diverges from spec
Hierarchical CoordinationQueen agent enforces spec compliance across all worker agents

<details> <summary>πŸ›‘οΈ <strong>@claude-flow/guidance</strong> β€” Long-horizon governance control plane for Claude Code agents</summary>

Overview

@claude-flow/guidance turns CLAUDE.md into a runtime governance system with enforcement gates, cryptographic proofs, and feedback loops. Agents that normally drift after 30 minutes can now operate for days β€” rules are enforced mechanically at every step, not remembered by the model.

7-phase pipeline: Compile β†’ Retrieve β†’ Enforce β†’ Trust β†’ Prove β†’ Defend β†’ Evolve

CapabilityDescription
CompileParses CLAUDE.md into typed policy bundles (constitution + task-scoped shards)
RetrieveIntent-classified shard retrieval with semantic similarity and risk filters
Enforce4 gates the model cannot bypass (destructive ops, tool allowlist, diff size, secrets)
TrustPer-agent trust accumulation with privilege tiers and coherence-driven throttling
ProveHMAC-SHA256 hash-chained proof envelopes for cryptographic run auditing
DefendPrompt injection, memory poisoning, and inter-agent collusion detection
EvolveOptimizer loop that ranks violations, simulates rule changes, and promotes winners

Install

npm install @claude-flow/guidance@alpha

Quick Usage

import {
  createCompiler,
  createRetriever,
  createGates,
  createLedger,
  createProofChain,
} from '@claude-flow/guidance';

// Compile CLAUDE.md into a policy bundle
const compiler = createCompiler();
const bundle = await compiler.compile(claudeMdText);

// Retrieve task-relevant rules
const retriever = createRetriever();
await retriever.loadBundle(bundle);
const { shards, policyText } = await retriever.retrieve({
  taskDescription: 'Fix authentication bug in login flow',
});

// Enforce gates on tool calls
const gates = createGates(bundle);
const result = gates.evaluate({ tool: 'bash', args: { command: 'rm -rf /' } });
// result.blocked === true

// Audit with proof chain
const chain = createProofChain({ signingKey: process.env.PROOF_KEY! });
const envelope = chain.seal(runEvent);
chain.verify(envelope); // true β€” tamper-evident

Usage:

# Default: Safe multi-line (avoids Claude Code collision zone)
npx ruflo@v3alpha hooks statusline

# Single-line mode (completely avoids collision)
npx ruflo@v3alpha hooks statusline --single

# Legacy multi-line (original behavior, may have bleeding)
npx ruflo@v3alpha hooks statusline --legacy

# JSON output for scripting
npx ruflo@v3alpha hooks statusline --json

# Compact JSON (single line)
npx ruflo@v3alpha hooks statusline --compact

Collision Zone Fix (Issue #985):

Claude Code writes internal status (e.g., 7s β€’ 1p) at absolute terminal coordinates (columns 15-25 on the second-to-last line). The safe mode pads the collision line with spaces to push content past column 25, preventing character bleeding.

OptionDescription

--singleSingle-line output (complete collision avoidance)
--legacyOriginal multi-line (may cause bleeding)
--jsonJSON output with pretty printing

🧠 Infinite Context & Memory Optimization

Ruflo eliminates Claude Code's context window ceiling with a real-time memory management system that archives, optimizes, and restores conversation context automatically.

<details> <summary>♾️ <strong>Context Autopilot</strong> β€” Never lose context to compaction again</summary>

The Problem

Claude Code has a finite context window (~200K tokens). When full, it compacts β€” summarizing the conversation and discarding details like exact file paths, tool outputs, decision reasoning, and code snippets. This creates a "context cliff" where Claude loses the ability to reference earlier work.

The Solution: Context Autopilot (ADR-051)

Ruflo intercepts the compaction lifecycle with three hooks that make context loss invisible:

Every Prompt                    Context Full                    After Compact
     β”‚                              β”‚                              β”‚

How Memory is Optimized

Proactive ArchivingEvery user prompt archives new turns to SQLite with SHA-256 dedupEvery prompt
Token TrackingReads actual API usage data (input + cache tokens) for accurate %Every prompt
Compaction BlockingPreCompact hook returns exit code 2 to cancel auto-compactionWhen context fills
Manual Compact/compact is allowed β€” archives first, resets autopilot, then compressesOn user request
Importance RankingEntries scored by recency Γ— frequency Γ— richness for smart retrievalOn restore
Access TrackingRestored entries get access_count++ creating a relevance feedback loopOn restore
Auto-PruningNever-accessed entries older than 30 days are automatically removedOn PreCompact
Content CompactionOld session entries trimmed to summaries, reducing archive storageManual or scheduled

🧠 Intelligence & Learning

Self-learning hooks, pattern recognition, and intelligent task routing.

<details> <summary>πŸͺ <strong>Hooks, Event Hooks, Workers & Pattern Intelligence</strong></summary>

What Are Hooks?

Hooks intercept operations (file edits, commands, tasks) and learn from outcomes. Unlike static automation, hooks improve over time by tracking what works and applying those patterns to future tasks.

ConceptPlain EnglishTechnical Details
HookCode that runs before/after an actionEvent listener with pre/post lifecycle
PatternA learned strategy that workedVector embedding stored in ReasoningBank
TrajectoryRecording of actions β†’ outcomesRL episode for SONA training
RoutingPicking the best agent for a taskMoE-based classifier with learned weights

Hook Signals (ADR-026 Model Routing)

When hooks run, they emit signals that guide routing decisions. Watch for these in hook output:

SignalMeaningAction
[AGENT_BOOSTER_AVAILABLE]Simple transform detected, skip LLMUse Edit tool directly (352x faster, $0)
[TASK_MODEL_RECOMMENDATION] Use model="haiku"Low complexity taskPass model: "haiku" to Task tool
[TASK_MODEL_RECOMMENDATION] Use model="sonnet"Medium complexity taskPass model: "sonnet" to Task tool
[TASK_MODEL_RECOMMENDATION] Use model="opus"High complexity taskPass model: "opus" to Task tool

Agent Booster Intents (handled without LLM):

  • var-to-const - Convert var/let to const
  • add-types - Add TypeScript type annotations
  • add-error-handling - Wrap in try/catch
  • async-await - Convert promises to async/await
  • add-logging - Add console.log statements
  • remove-console - Strip console.* calls

Example Hook Output:

$ npx ruflo@v3alpha hooks pre-task --description "convert var to const in utils.ts"

[AGENT_BOOSTER_AVAILABLE] Intent: var-to-const
Recommendation: Use Edit tool directly
Performance: <1ms (352x faster than LLM)
Cost: $0

Intelligence Loop (ADR-050)

The intelligence loop wires PageRank-ranked memory into the hook system. Every session builds a knowledge graph that improves over time:

SessionStart:
  session-restore  β†’ intelligence.init()
    β†’ Read MEMORY.md / auto-memory-store.json
    β†’ Build graph (nodes + similarity/temporal edges)
    β†’ Compute PageRank
    β†’ "[INTELLIGENCE] Loaded 13 patterns, 12 edges"

UserPrompt:
  route            β†’ intelligence.getContext(prompt)
    β†’ Jaccard-match prompt against pre-ranked entries
    β†’ Inject top-5 patterns into Claude's context:

    [INTELLIGENCE] Relevant patterns for this task:
      * (0.95) HNSW gives 150x-12,500x speedup [rank #1, 12x accessed]
      * (0.88) London School TDD preferred [rank #3, 8x accessed]

PostEdit:
  post-edit        β†’ intelligence.recordEdit(file)
    β†’ Append to pending-insights.jsonl (<2ms)

SessionEnd:
  session-end      β†’ intelligence.consolidate()
    β†’ Process pending insights (3+ edits β†’ new entry)
    β†’ Confidence boost for accessed patterns (+0.03)
    β†’ Confidence decay for unused patterns (-0.005/day)
    β†’ Recompute PageRank, rebuild edges
    β†’ Save snapshot for trend tracking

Measuring improvement:

# Human-readable diagnostics
node .claude/helpers/hook-handler.cjs stats

# JSON output for scripting
node .claude/helpers/hook-handler.cjs stats --json

# Or via intelligence.cjs directly
node .claude/helpers/intelligence.cjs stats

The stats command shows:

SectionWhat It Tells You
GraphNode/edge count, density %
ConfidenceMin/max/mean/median across all patterns
AccessTotal accesses, patterns used vs never accessed
PageRankSum (~1.0), highest-ranked node
Top PatternsTop 10 by composite score with access counts
Last DeltaChanges since previous session (confidence shift, access delta)
TrendOver all sessions: IMPROVING / DECLINING / STABLE

Example output:

<details> <summary>🎫 <strong>Claims & Work Coordination</strong> β€” Human-Agent Task Management</summary>

The Claims system manages who is working on what β€” whether human or agent. It prevents conflicts, enables handoffs, and balances work across your team.

Why Use Claims?

ProblemSolution
Two agents working on the same fileClaims prevent duplicate work
Agent stuck on a taskMark as stealable, another agent takes over
Need to hand off workStructured handoff with context
Unbalanced workloadAutomatic rebalancing across agents

Handoff Workflow

When you need to pass work to someone else:

# 1. Request handoff with context
npx ruflo@v3alpha issues handoff #123 \
  --to security-architect \
  --reason "Needs security review" \
  --progress 80

# 2. Target accepts handoff
npx ruflo@v3alpha issues accept #123 --as security-architect

# 3. Work continues with full context

Load Balancing

# View current load

Coverage-Aware Routing

Routes tasks to agents based on test coverage gaps:

npx ruflo@v3alpha route coverage

# Finds untested code and routes to tester agent:
# β€’ src/auth/jwt.ts - 23% coverage β†’ tester
# β€’ src/api/users.ts - 45% coverage β†’ tester
# β€’ src/utils/crypto.ts - 0% coverage β†’ security-architect + tester

Routing Hooks

# Route via hooks (preferred)
npx ruflo@v3alpha hooks route "implement caching layer" --include-explanation

# Record outcome for learning
npx ruflo@v3alpha hooks post-task --task-id "task-123" --success true --agent coder

Provider Comparison

ProviderLatencyQualityCostOfflineBest For
Agentic-Flow (ONNX)~3msGoodFreeβœ…Production (75x faster)
OpenAI~50-100msExcellent$0.02-0.13/1M❌Highest quality
Transformers.js~230msGoodFreeβœ…Local development
Mock<1msN/AFreeβœ…Testing

Basic Usage

import { createEmbeddingService, cosineSimilarity } from '@claude-flow/embeddings';

// Auto-selects best provider (agentic-flow ONNX preferred)
const embeddings = await createEmbeddingService({
  provider: 'auto',        // agentic-flow β†’ transformers β†’ mock
  autoInstall: true,       // Auto-install agentic-flow if missing
  dimensions: 384,
  cache: { enabled: true, maxSize: 10000 }
});

// Generate embeddings
const result = await embeddings.embed('authentication patterns');
console.log(`Generated in ${result.latencyMs}ms`);

// Batch processing with cache stats
const batch = await embeddings.embedBatch([
  'user login flow',
  'password reset',
  'session management'
]);
console.log(`Cache hits: ${batch.cacheStats?.hits}`);

// Compare similarity
const similarity = cosineSimilarity(batch.embeddings[0], batch.embeddings[1]);
// 0.94 (high similarity)

Document Chunking

Split long documents into overlapping chunks:

import { chunkText, estimateTokens } from '@claude-flow/embeddings';

const result = chunkText(longDocument, {
  maxChunkSize: 512,
  overlap: 50,
  strategy: 'sentence',  // 'character' | 'sentence' | 'paragraph' | 'token'
  minChunkSize: 100,
});

console.log(`Created ${result.totalChunks} chunks`);
result.chunks.forEach((chunk, i) => {
  console.log(`Chunk ${i}: ${chunk.length} chars, ~${chunk.tokenCount} tokens`);
});

Normalization Options

Normalize embeddings for consistent similarity:

import { l2Normalize, l1Normalize, minMaxNormalize, zScoreNormalize } from '@claude-flow/embeddings';

// L2 normalize (unit vector - most common for cosine similarity)
const l2 = l2Normalize(embedding);  // [0.6, 0.8, 0]

// Other normalizations
const l1 = l1Normalize(embedding);       // Manhattan norm = 1
const minMax = minMaxNormalize(embedding); // Values in [0, 1]
const zScore = zScoreNormalize(embedding); // Mean 0, std 1

Hyperbolic Embeddings (PoincarΓ© Ball)

Better representation for hierarchical code structures:

import {
  euclideanToPoincare,
  hyperbolicDistance,
  hyperbolicCentroid,
  mobiusAdd,
} from '@claude-flow/embeddings';

// Convert to hyperbolic space (better for tree-like structures)
const poincare = euclideanToPoincare(embedding);

// Hyperbolic distance (geodesic in PoincarΓ© ball)
const dist = hyperbolicDistance(embedding1, embedding2);

// Hyperbolic centroid (FrΓ©chet mean)
const centroid = hyperbolicCentroid([embed1, embed2, embed3]);

// Why hyperbolic? Better for:
// - Parent-child relationships (class inheritance)
// - Directory hierarchies
// - Taxonomy structures
// - Lower distortion for tree-like data

Neural Substrate Integration (Fine-Tuning)

Access neural features for embedding adaptation:

import { createNeuralService, isNeuralAvailable } from '@claude-flow/embeddings';

// Check availability
const available = await isNeuralAvailable();

// Create neural service
const neural = createNeuralService({ dimension: 384 });
await neural.init();

if (neural.isAvailable()) {
  // Semantic drift detection (catches context drift)
  await neural.setDriftBaseline('Initial context');
  const drift = await neural.detectDrift('New input to check');
  console.log('Drift:', drift?.trend);  // 'stable' | 'drifting' | 'accelerating'

  // Memory with interference detection
  const stored = await neural.storeMemory('mem-1', 'Important pattern');
  console.log('Interference:', stored?.interference);

  // Recall by similarity
  const memories = await neural.recallMemories('query', 5);

  // Coherence calibration (fine-tune quality detection)
  await neural.calibrateCoherence(['good output 1', 'good output 2']);
  const coherence = await neural.checkCoherence('Output to verify');

  // Swarm coordination via embeddings
  await neural.addSwarmAgent('agent-1', 'researcher');
  const coordination = await neural.coordinateSwarm('Complex task');
}

Persistent SQLite Cache

Long-term embedding storage with LRU eviction:

import { PersistentEmbeddingCache } from '@claude-flow/embeddings';

const cache = new PersistentEmbeddingCache({
  dbPath: './embeddings.db',
  maxSize: 10000,
  ttlMs: 7 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000,  // 7 days
});

await cache.init();
await cache.set('my text', new Float32Array([0.1, 0.2, 0.3]));
const embedding = await cache.get('my text');

const stats = await cache.getStats();
console.log(`Hit rate: ${(stats.hitRate * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);

# Single file edit
npx agentic-flow agent-booster edit \
  --file src/api.ts \
  --instructions "Add error handling" \
  --code 'try { ... } catch (error) { ... }'

# Batch rename across codebase

  --pattern "getUserData" \
  --replacement "fetchUserProfile" \
  --glob "src/**/*.ts"

# Parse LLM markdown output
npx agentic-flow agent-booster parse-md response.md

Use Cases:

  • βœ… Variable/function renaming across files
  • βœ… Adding imports, type annotations
  • βœ… Code formatting, signature updates
  • ❌ Complex refactoring (use LLM)
  • ❌ Bug fixes requiring reasoning (use LLM)

ROI Example: 1000 edits/day saves $10/day + 5.86 minutes = $3,650/year

</details> <details> <summary>🧠 <strong>ReasoningBank</strong> β€” Learning Memory System</summary>

ReasoningBank stores successful patterns for future retrieval:

import { ReasoningBank } from 'agentic-flow/reasoningbank';

const bank = new ReasoningBank();

// Record successful outcome
await bank.recordOutcome({
  task: 'implement authentication',
  outcome: 'JWT with refresh tokens',
  success: true,
  context: { framework: 'express' }
});

// Retrieve similar patterns for new task
const patterns = await bank.retrieveSimilar('add user login', { k: 5 });
// Returns past successful auth implementations

// Judge and distill learnings
await bank.judge(trajectoryId, 'success');
await bank.distill();  // Extract key patterns
await bank.consolidate();  // Prevent forgetting (EWC++)

4-Step Pipeline:

  1. RETRIEVE β€” Fetch relevant patterns via HNSW (150x faster)
  2. JUDGE β€” Evaluate outcomes with verdicts
  3. DISTILL β€” Extract key learnings via LoRA
  4. CONSOLIDATE β€” Prevent catastrophic forgetting (EWC++)
</details> <details> <summary>πŸ”’ <strong>ONNX Embeddings</strong> β€” 75x Faster Local Vectors</summary>

Generate embeddings locally without API calls:

import { getOptimizedEmbedder, cosineSimilarity } from 'agentic-flow/embeddings';

const embedder = getOptimizedEmbedder();
await embedder.init();

// Generate embedding (3ms local vs 230ms Transformers.js)
const vector = await embedder.embed('authentication patterns');

// Batch processing
const vectors = await embedder.embedBatch([
  'user login flow',
  'password reset',
  'session management'
]);

// Calculate similarity
const similarity = cosineSimilarity(vectors[0], vectors[1]);

</details> <details> <summary>πŸ“ <strong>Embedding Geometry</strong> β€” Intelligence as Geometry</summary>

Advanced patterns treating embeddings as geometric control surfaces:

Semantic Drift Detection:

import { getOptimizedEmbedder, cosineSimilarity } from 'agentic-flow/embeddings';

const embedder = getOptimizedEmbedder();
let baseline: Float32Array;

// Set baseline context
baseline = await embedder.embed('User asking about API authentication');

// Check for drift
const current = await embedder.embed(userMessage);
const drift = 1 - cosineSimilarity(baseline, current);

if (drift > 0.15) {
  console.log('Semantic drift detected - escalate');
}

Memory Physics:

  • Temporal decay (forgetting)
  • Interference detection (nearby memories weaken)
  • Memory consolidation (merge similar patterns)

Swarm Coordination:

// Agents coordinate via embedding positions, not messages
const agentPosition = await embedder.embed(agentRole);
const taskPosition = await embedder.embed(currentTask);

// Geometric alignment for task routing
const alignment = cosineSimilarity(agentPosition, taskPosition);

Coherence Monitoring:

// Detect model degradation/poisoning via embedding drift
await monitor.calibrate(knownGoodOutputs);
const result = await monitor.check(newOutput);
if (result.anomalyScore > 1.5) {
  console.log('WARNING: Output drifting from baseline');
}
</details> <details> <summary>πŸ”€ <strong>Multi-Model Router</strong> β€” Intelligent Model Selection</summary>

Route tasks to optimal models based on complexity:

import { ModelRouter } from 'agentic-flow/router';

const router = new ModelRouter();

// Automatic routing based on task complexity
const result = await router.route({
  task: 'Add console.log to function',
  preferCost: true
});
// Returns: { model: 'haiku', reason: 'simple task, low complexity' }

const result2 = await router.route({
  task: 'Design distributed caching architecture'
});
// Returns: { model: 'opus', reason: 'complex architecture, high reasoning' }

<details> <summary>⚑ <strong>@ruvector/attention</strong> β€” Flash Attention (2.49x-7.47x Speedup)</summary>

Native Rust implementation of Flash Attention for transformer computations:

import { FlashAttention } from '@ruvector/attention';

const attention = new FlashAttention({
  blockSize: 32,      // L1 cache optimized
  dimensions: 384,
  temperature: 1.0,
  useCPUOptimizations: true
});

// Compute attention with O(N) memory instead of O(NΒ²)
const result = attention.attention(queries, keys, values);
console.log(`Computed in ${result.computeTimeMs}ms`);

// Benchmark against naive implementation
const bench = attention.benchmark(512, 384, 5);
console.log(`Speedup: ${bench.speedup}x`);
console.log(`Memory reduction: ${bench.memoryReduction}x`);

Key Optimizations:

  • Block-wise computation (fits L1 cache)
  • 8x loop unrolling for dot products
  • Top-K sparse attention (12% of keys)
  • Two-stage screening for large key sets
  • Online softmax for numerical stability
</details> <details> <summary>🧠 <strong>@ruvector/sona</strong> β€” Self-Optimizing Neural Architecture</summary>

SONA provides runtime-adaptive learning with minimal overhead:

import { SONA } from '@ruvector/sona';

const sona = new SONA({
  enableLoRA: true,       // Low-rank adaptation
  enableEWC: true,        // Elastic Weight Consolidation
  learningRate: 0.001
});

// Start learning trajectory
const trajectory = sona.startTrajectory('task-123');

// Record steps during execution
trajectory.recordStep({
  type: 'observation',
  content: 'Found authentication bug'
});
trajectory.recordStep({
  type: 'action',
  content: 'Applied JWT validation fix'
});

// Complete trajectory with verdict
await trajectory.complete('success');

// EWC++ consolidation (prevents forgetting)
await sona.consolidate();

Features:

  • LoRA: Low-rank adaptation for efficient fine-tuning
  • EWC++: Prevents catastrophic forgetting
  • ReasoningBank: Pattern storage with similarity search
  • Sub-millisecond: <0.05ms adaptation overhead
</details> <details> <summary>πŸ“Š <strong>@ruvector/graph-node</strong> β€” Native Graph Database</summary>

High-performance graph database with Cypher query support:

import { GraphDB } from '@ruvector/graph-node';

const db = new GraphDB({ path: './data/graph' });

// Create nodes and relationships
await db.query(`
  CREATE (a:Agent {name: 'coder', type: 'specialist'})
  CREATE (b:Agent {name: 'reviewer', type: 'specialist'})
  CREATE (a)-[:COLLABORATES_WITH {weight: 0.9}]->(b)
`);

// Query patterns
const result = await db.query(`
  MATCH (a:Agent)-[r:COLLABORATES_WITH]->(b:Agent)
  WHERE r.weight > 0.8
  RETURN a.name, b.name, r.weight
`);

// Hypergraph support for multi-agent coordination
await db.createHyperedge(['agent-1', 'agent-2', 'agent-3'], {
  type: 'consensus',
  topic: 'architecture-decision'
});

Performance vs WASM:

  • 10x faster query execution
  • Native memory management
  • Zero-copy data transfer
</details>

Integration with Ruflo

Ruflo automatically uses RuVector when available:

// Ruflo detects and uses native ruvector
import { getVectorStore } from '@claude-flow/memory';

const store = await getVectorStore();
// Uses ruvector if installed, falls back to sql.js

// HNSW-indexed search (150x faster)
const results = await store.search(queryVector, 10);

// Flash Attention for pattern matching
const attention = await getFlashAttention();
const similarity = attention.attention(queries, keys, values);

  createMockApplication,
  agentConfigs,
  swarmConfigs,
  waitFor,
} from '@claude-flow/testing';

// Configure test environment
setupV3Tests();

describe('MyModule', () => {
  const app = createMockApplication();

  beforeEach(() => {
    vi.clearAllMocks();
  });

  it('should spawn an agent', async () => {
    const result = await app.agentLifecycle.spawn(agentConfigs.queenCoordinator);

    expect(result.success).toBe(true);
    expect(result.agent.type).toBe('queen-coordinator');
  });
});

Fixtures

Agent Fixtures

import {
  agentConfigs,
  createAgentConfig,
  createV3SwarmAgentConfigs,
  createMockAgent,
} from '@claude-flow/testing';

// Pre-defined configs
const queen = agentConfigs.queenCoordinator;
const coder = agentConfigs.coder;

// Create with overrides
const customAgent = createAgentConfig('coder', {
  name: 'Custom Coder',
  priority: 90,
});

// Full V3 15-agent swarm
const swarmAgents = createV3SwarmAgentConfigs();

// Mock agents with vitest mocks
const mockAgent = createMockAgent('security-architect');
mockAgent.execute.mockResolvedValue({ success: true });

Memory Fixtures

import {
  memoryEntries,
  createMemoryEntry,
  generateMockEmbedding,
  createMemoryBatch,
} from '@claude-flow/testing';

// Pre-defined entries
const pattern = memoryEntries.agentPattern;
const securityRule = memoryEntries.securityRule;

// Generate embeddings
const embedding = generateMockEmbedding(384, 'my-seed');

// Create batch for performance testing
const batch = createMemoryBatch(10000, 'semantic');

Swarm Fixtures

import {
  swarmConfigs,
  createSwarmConfig,
  createSwarmTask,
  createMockSwarmCoordinator,

// Create with overrides
const customConfig = createSwarmConfig('v3Default', {
  maxAgents: 20,
  coordination: {
    consensusProtocol: 'pbft',
    heartbeatInterval: 500,
  },
});

// Mock coordinator

// Mock client
const client = createMockMCPClient();
await client.connect();
const result = await client.callTool('swarm_init', { topology: 'mesh' });

Mock Factory

import {
  createMockApplication,
  createMockEventBus,
  createMockTaskManager,
  createMockSecurityService,
  createMockSwarmCoordinator,
} from '@claude-flow/testing';

// Full application with all mocks
const app = createMockApplication();

// Use in tests
await app.taskManager.create({ name: 'Test', type: 'coding', payload: {} });
expect(app.taskManager.create).toHaveBeenCalled();

// Access tracked state
expect(app.eventBus.publishedEvents).toHaveLength(1);
expect(app.taskManager.tasks.size).toBe(1);

Async Utilities

import {
  waitFor,
  waitUntilChanged,
  retry,
  withTimeout,
  parallelLimit,
} from '@claude-flow/testing';

// Wait for condition
await waitFor(() => element.isVisible(), { timeout: 5000 });

// Wait for value to change
await waitUntilChanged(() => counter.value, { from: 0 });

// Retry with exponential backoff
const result = await retry(
  async () => await fetchData(),
  { maxAttempts: 3, backoff: 100 }
);

// Timeout wrapper
await withTimeout(async () => await longOp(), 5000);

// Parallel with concurrency limit
const results = await parallelLimit(
  items.map(item => () => processItem(item)),
  5 // max 5 concurrent
);

Assertions

import {
  assertEventPublished,
  assertEventOrder,
  assertMocksCalledInOrder,
  assertV3PerformanceTargets,
  assertNoSensitiveData,
} from '@claude-flow/testing';

// Event assertions
assertEventPublished(mockEventBus, 'UserCreated', { userId: '123' });
assertEventOrder(mockEventBus.publish, ['UserCreated', 'EmailSent']);

// Mock order
assertMocksCalledInOrder([mockValidate, mockSave, mockNotify]);

// Performance targets
assertV3PerformanceTargets({
  searchSpeedup: 160,
  flashAttentionSpeedup: 3.5,
  memoryReduction: 0.55,
});

// Security
assertNoSensitiveData(mockLogger.logs, ['password', 'token', 'secret']);

Performance Testing

import { createPerformanceTestHelper, TEST_CONFIG } from '@claude-flow/testing';

const perf = createPerformanceTestHelper();

perf.startMeasurement('search');
await search(query);
const duration = perf.endMeasurement('search');

// Get statistics
const stats = perf.getStats('search');
console.log(`Avg: ${stats.avg}ms, P95: ${stats.p95}ms`);

// V3 targets
console.log(TEST_CONFIG.FLASH_ATTENTION_SPEEDUP_MIN); // 2.49
console.log(TEST_CONFIG.AGENTDB_SEARCH_IMPROVEMENT_MAX); // 12500

Step-by-Step Migration

# STEP 1: Backup existing data (CRITICAL)
cp -r ./data ./data-backup-v2
cp -r ./.ruflo ./.ruflo-backup-v2

# STEP 2: Check migration status
npx ruflo@v3alpha migrate status

# STEP 3: Run migration with dry-run first
npx ruflo@v3alpha migrate run --dry-run

# STEP 4: Execute migration
npx ruflo@v3alpha migrate run --from v2

# STEP 5: Verify migration
npx ruflo@v3alpha migrate verify

# STEP 6: Initialize V3 learning
npx ruflo@v3alpha hooks pretrain
npx ruflo@v3alpha doctor --fix

Configuration Migration

V2 Config (.ruflo/config.json):

{
  "mode": "basic",
  "patternStore": "./patterns",
  "maxAgents": 10
}

V3 Config (claude-flow.config.json):

{
  "version": "3.0.0",
  "memory": {
    "type": "hybrid",
    "path": "./data",
    "hnsw": { "m": 16, "ef": 200 }
  },
  "swarm": {
    "topology": "hierarchical",
    "maxAgents": 15,
    "strategy": "specialized"
  },
  "security": { "mode": "strict" },
  "neural": { "enabled": true, "sona": true }
}

Import Changes

// V2 (deprecated)
import { ClaudeFlow, Agent, Memory } from 'ruflo';

// V3 (new)
import { ClaudeFlowClient } from '@claude-flow/cli';
import { AgentDB } from '@claude-flow/memory';
import { ThreatDetector } from '@claude-flow/security';
import { HNSWIndex } from '@claude-flow/embeddings';

Rollback Procedure

If migration fails, you can rollback:

# Check rollback options
npx ruflo@v3alpha migrate rollback --list

# Rollback to V2
npx ruflo@v3alpha migrate rollback --to v2

# Restore backup manually if needed
rm -rf ./data
cp -r ./data-backup-v2 ./data

Post-Migration Checklist

  • Verify all agents spawn correctly: npx ruflo@v3alpha agent list
  • Check memory search works: npx ruflo@v3alpha memory search -q "test"
  • Confirm MCP server starts: npx ruflo@v3alpha mcp start
  • Run doctor diagnostics: npx ruflo@v3alpha doctor
  • Test a simple swarm: npx ruflo@v3alpha swarm init --topology mesh
  • Bootstrap learning: npx ruflo@v3alpha hooks pretrain
