What if every task, every file, every function could truly think? Just for a moment. No LLM required. That's what ruv-swarm makes real.

🐝 Ephemeral Intelligence, Engineered in Rust

npx ruv-swarm@latest init --claude

ruv-swarm lets you spin up ultra-lightweight custom neural networks that exist just long enough to solve the problem. Tiny purpose-built brains dedicated to solving very specific challenges.

Think particular coding structures, custom communications, trading optimization - neural networks built on the fly just for the task they need to exist for, long enough to solve it, then gone.

You're not calling a model. You're instantiating intelligence.

Temporary, composable, and surgically precise.

⚡ Built for the GPU-Poor

We built this using ruv-FANN and distributed autonomous agents. The results are remarkable:

• Complex decisions in <100ms - sometimes single milliseconds
• 84.8% SWE-Bench accuracy - outperforming Claude 3.7 by 14+ points
• CPU-native, GPU-optional - Rust compiles to high-speed WASM
• Zero dependencies - Runs anywhere: browser, edge, server, even RISC-V

No CUDA. No Python stack. Just pure, embeddable swarm cognition launched from Claude Code in milliseconds.

🧠 Living Global Swarm Network

Each agent behaves like a synthetic synapse, dynamically created and orchestrated as part of a living network:

• Topologies: Mesh, ring, hierarchical for collective learning
• 27+ Neural Models: LSTM, TCN, N-BEATS for adaptation
• Cognitive Specializations: Coders, Analysts, Reviewers, Optimizers
• Real-time Evolution: Mutation, adaptation, and forecasting

Agents share resources through quantum-resistant QuDag networks, self-organizing to solve problems with surgical precision.
