Ruflo

Multi-agent AI orchestration for Claude Code

Orchestrate 100+ specialized AI agents across machines, teams, and trust boundaries. Ruflo adds coordinated swarms, self-learning memory, federated comms, and enterprise security to Claude Code — so agents don't just run, they collaborate.

Why Ruflo?

Claude Flow is now Ruflo — named by rUv, who loves Rust, flow states, and building things that feel inevitable. The "Ru" is the rUv. The "flo" is working until 3am. Underneath, powered by Cognitum.One agentic architecture, running a supercharged Rust based AI engine, embeddings, memory, and plugin system.

What Ruflo Does

One npx ruvflo init gives Claude Code a nervous system: agents self-organize into swarms, learn from every task, remember across sessions, and — with federation — securely talk to agents on other machines without leaking data. You keep writing code. Ruflo handles the coordination.

Self-Learning / Self-Optimizing Agent Architecture

User --> Ruflo (CLI/MCP) --> Router --> Swarm --> Agents --> Memory --> LLM Providers
                          ^                           |
                          +---- Learning Loop <-------+

New to Ruflo? You don't need to learn 314 MCP tools or 26 CLI commands. After init, just use Claude Code normally -- the hooks system automatically routes tasks, learns from successful patterns, and coordinates agents in the background.

Quick Start

There are two different install paths with very different surface areas. Pick based on what you need (#1744):

| | Claude Code Plugin | CLI install (npx ruflo init) | |---|---|---| | What it gives you | Slash commands + a few skills + agent definitions per-plugin | Full Ruflo loop — 98 agents, 60+ commands, 30 skills, MCP server, hooks, daemon | | Files in your workspace | Zero | .claude/, .claude-flow/, CLAUDE.md, helpers, settings | | MCP server registered | No (memory_store, swarm_init, etc. unavailable to Claude) | Yes | | Hooks installed | No | Yes | | Best for | Try a single plugin's commands without committing to the full install | Production use — everything works as documented |

Path A — Claude Code Plugins (lite, slash commands only)

# Add the marketplace
/plugin marketplace add ruvnet/ruflo

# Install core + any plugins you need
/plugin install ruflo-core@ruflo
/plugin install ruflo-swarm@ruflo
/plugin install ruflo-rag-memory@ruflo
/plugin install ruflo-neural-trader@ruflo

This adds slash commands and agent definitions only. The Ruflo MCP server is NOT registered, so memory_store, swarm_init, agent_spawn, etc. won't be callable from Claude. For the full loop, use Path B below.
