Ruflo

rUv (ruvnet)

Free

Open-source agent meta-harness for Claude Code and Codex adding swarms, self-learning memory, MCP tools and security guardrails.

Agent Swarms: Over 100 specialized agents self-organize into coordinated swarms to split up and run complex tasks.
Self-Learning Memory: Remembers across sessions and learns from successful trajectories using local vector retrieval and contrastive updates.
MCP Server: Run npx ruflo mcp start to expose Ruflo's tools to Codex or any MCP-enabled client.
Claude Code Plugins: Core tools, a visual console and runtime mods add routing and policy enforcement inside Claude Code.
Terminal UI Console: Shows Overview, Cost, Swarm, Events and Missions pages, and also runs standalone.
Federation: Lets agents on different machines communicate securely without leaking data.
Hook-Based Routing: Hooks automatically route tasks and coordinate agents in the background.

Large Refactors: Split a big codebase change across a swarm of specialist agents.
Persistent Project Context: Keep knowledge across Claude Code sessions with vector memory.
Multi-Client Setups: Connect Codex or other MCP clients to the same tool server.
Cost Monitoring: Track spend and agent activity from the console during long runs.
Multi-Machine Collaboration: Let agents on separate machines coordinate through federation.

Paid

An AI QA agent that opens your app on every pull request and posts a verdict, captioned video and screenshot back to GitHub.

PR-Triggered Runs: Connecting a repository is enough - every pull request marked ready for review starts a test run with no pipeline config.
Journey Selection From Diff: TryCase reads the changed code and chooses which user flows are actually affected rather than replaying a whole suite.
Disposable Linux Environments: Each run gets a fresh environment with terminal and browser control, so state from earlier runs never leaks in.
Video and Screenshot Evidence: Results arrive as a captioned recording plus a screenshot commented on the PR, showing exactly what the app did.
Bring Your Own AI: Connect Codex through an existing ChatGPT subscription or supply an OpenRouter key and pay your provider directly for inference.
Agent Skills: Packaged skills teach Claude, Codex, Cursor and other compatible agents to drive TryCase environments without manual setup.
Parallel Workers: Up to twelve workers per bot run journeys concurrently, with testing time tracked separately for setup, the primary bot and each worker.
Usage-Based Hour Pools: Monthly plans grant a shared pool of end-to-end testing hours across setup, PRs and retries, with no automatic overage charges.

Pre-Merge Verification: Confirm a checkout or signup flow still works before approving a pull request, without pulling the branch locally.
Visual Regression Review: Catch layout and rendering breakage that unit tests pass over by watching the recorded walkthrough.
Agent-Written Code Review: Require an AI coding agent to return screenshots and recordings proving its change runs, not just a diff.
Suite-Free E2E Coverage: Give a small team end-to-end coverage without staffing the maintenance of a Playwright or Cypress suite.
Demo Clips From Branches: Reuse the captioned videos as short product demos of a feature still sitting on a branch.
Release Triage: Scan verdicts across several open PRs to decide which changes are safe to batch into a release.
