ruflo

The leading agent meta-harness. Deploy intelligent multi-player swarms, coordinate autonomous workflows, and build conversational AI systems.

Best for

Adding tools, memory, loops, and sandboxes on top of Claude Code or Codex.

Avoid if

You do not already use Claude Code or Codex — Ruflo is a harness layered on them.

About ruflo

One npx ruflo 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.

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

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.

From the project's README

ruflo is an open-source project written primarily in TypeScript, with 68k stars on GitHub. It was last updated in August 2026.
