[![Coverage Report](https://img.shields.io/badge/coverage-dynamic-blue)](docs/CI_CD_PIPELINE.md)

A production-ready AI agent orchestration system with autonomous self-correcting workflows, multi-domain support, and intelligent learning capabilities. Built for developers who need reliable, cost-effective agent coordination.

## 🚀 Quick Start

```bash
# 1. Install package (automatically initializes CFN files)
npm install claude-flow-novice

# 2. Activate CFN instructions for CLI agents
cp CFN-CLAUDE.md CLAUDE.md

# 3. Execute CFN Loop for complex features
npx cfn-loop "Implement JWT authentication system" --mode=standard

# Or spawn agents directly
npx cfn-spawn backend-developer --task-id auth-task
```
**Installation:**
```bash
npm install claude-flow-novice
npx cfn-init  # Copy namespace-isolated files
```

**Collision Risk:** ~0.01% (user custom files preserved)

**Package:** 573 KB tarball, 2.4 MB unpacked, 303 files (68% reduction from v2.0.0)

**Agent Discovery:** Recursive search through `.claude/agents/**/*.md` finds both cfn-dev-team and user custom agents


**What happens on install**:
- Copies 23 agents to `.claude/agents/cfn-dev-team/`
- Copies 43 skills to `.claude/skills/cfn-*/`
- Copies 7 hooks to `.claude/hooks/cfn-*`
- Copies 45+ commands to `.claude/commands/cfn/`
- Copies `CFN-CLAUDE.md` reference file

**Important**: CLI-spawned agents read instructions from `CLAUDE.md` in your project root. Copy `CFN-CLAUDE.md` → `CLAUDE.md` to activate CFN workflows.

## ✨ What Makes CFN v3 Different

**Self-Correcting Workflows** - Automatic iteration until quality gates met (≥0.75 confidence, ≥0.90 consensus)

**95-98% Cost Savings** - CLI mode with Z.ai routing ($0.50/1M vs $3-15/1M tokens)

**Learns Over Time** - Playbook system reduces iterations by 30-40% after 10 similar tasks

**Multi-Domain** - Supports 6 task types with domain-specific validation

**Zero-Token Coordination** - Redis BLPOP for infinite waiting without API costs

### Self-Correcting Multi-Loop Validation

**Gate Validation** - Implementation confidence scores
- MVP: ≥0.70 | Standard: ≥0.75 | Enterprise: ≥0.85

**Consensus Validation** - Validator agreement
- MVP: ≥0.80 | Standard: ≥0.90 | Enterprise: ≥0.95

**Automatic Iteration** - Self-correcting loops with max iterations:
- MVP: 5 | Standard: 10 | Enterprise: 15

### Dual-Mode Execution

**CLI Mode (Default)** - Production cost optimization
- 95-98% cost reduction via Z.ai routing
- Redis context storage for swarm recovery
- Zero-token waiting (BLPOP)
- Scalable to 10+ agents

**Task Mode** - Development & debugging
- Full visibility in Main Chat
- Direct context injection
- Anthropic routing
- Easier troubleshooting

```bash
# CLI mode v3.0 (default - enhanced monitoring)
/cfn-loop "Task description" --mode=standard

# Task mode (debugging)
/cfn-loop "Task description" --spawn-mode=task
```

---

### CFN Loop Execution Modes

**User selects mode. Main Chat executes the specified slash command.**

**Default: Task Mode** (default mode when user doesn't specify)

**Available modes:**

**1. Task Mode (Default):**
```bash
/cfn-loop-task "Task description" --mode=standard
```
- Main Chat spawns ALL agents via Task()
- NO coordinator agent
- Cost: $0.150/iteration
- Full visibility in Main Chat
- Use: Debugging, learning, short tasks (<5 min)

**2. CLI Mode (Production):**
```bash
/cfn-loop-cli "Task description" --mode=standard
```
- Main Chat spawns ONLY cfn-v3-coordinator
- Coordinator spawns workers via CLI (background)
- Cost: $0.054/iteration (64% savings vs Task)
- Use: Production, long tasks, cost-sensitive

**Mode selection guidance for users:**
- "execute cfn loop on X" → `/cfn-loop-task` (default)
- "use task mode on X" → `/cfn-loop-task`
- "use cli mode on X" → `/cfn-loop-cli`
- "production cfn loop on X" → `/cfn-loop-cli`

**Architecture patterns:**
- CLI: Main Chat → cfn-v3-coordinator → orchestrate.sh → CLI workers (background)
- Task: Main Chat → Task() agents (no coordinator, full visibility)

**Cost breakdown:**
- CLI mode: $0.054/iteration (Z.ai routing for workers)
- Task mode: $0.150/iteration (Anthropic for all agents)

**Context Storage:**
- CLI mode: Coordinator stores context in persistence layer for agents to retrieve
- Task mode: Main Chat passes context directly to each Task() spawn (no persistence needed)
- CLI agents read from context: coordination protocols retrieve task context

**Reference:**
- Implementation details: `planning/cfn-v3/DUAL_MODE_IMPLEMENTATION.md`
- **Task Mode guide**: `.claude/commands/cfn/CFN_LOOP_TASK_MODE.md` (agent specialization, sprint workflow, backlog management)

### Custom Routing (Z.ai Provider Integration)

**Provider Routing Model:**
- **Task() agents** → Use Main Chat provider (Anthropic)
- **CLI-spawned agents** → Use custom routing (Z.ai when enabled)

**Enable Custom Routing (One-Time Setup):**
```bash
/custom-routing-activate
```

**Switch Provider to Z.ai or Claude Subscription**
```bash
/switch-api status
```
```bash
/switch-api zai
```
```bash
/switch-api max
```

**Cost Impact:**
```
Without Custom Routing:
- CLI agents use Anthropic ($3-15/1M tokens)

With Custom Routing:
- CLI agents use Z.ai ($0.50/1M tokens)
- ~5x cost reduction per CLI agent call
- Combined with CLI spawning: 95-98% total savings vs Task tool
```

## 🔄 Redis Coordination

### Zero-Token Waiting Mode

**BLPOP-Based Blocking** - Infinite wait, zero API cost
- Agents block with `redis-cli blpop "queue" 0`
- Coordinator wakes agents with `redis-cli lpush "queue" "signal"`
- <100ms latency wake-up
- Context preserved across iterations

**Swarm Recovery** - Redis persistence enables crash recovery
- Task context stored in Redis with TTL
- Agents resume from last known state
- Critical for long-running CFN Loops

### Coordination Patterns

| Pattern | Use Case | Agent Count |
|---------|----------|-------------|
| **Simple Chain** | Sequential dependencies | 2-3 |
| **Hierarchical Broadcast** | Coordinator → Workers | 4-10 |
| **Mesh Hybrid** | Complex collaboration | 5-15 |

---

## 🔒 Security & Quality

### Built-in Security

**ACL System** - 5 levels of access control
1. Private - Agent's own data only
2. Swarm - Shared across team of agents
3. Project - Strategic decisions, audit logs
4. Strategic - Cross-project patterns
5. System - Infrastructure only

**Security Features**
- Secret detection and prevention
- Path traversal protection
- Input sanitization
- Envelope encryption for sensitive data

### Quality Gates

- **Deliverable Verification** - Prevents "consensus on vapor" (validators approving plans without code)
- **Multi-Layer Context Injection** - Validation at coordinator → orchestrator → agent layers
- **Agent Completion Protocol** - Mandatory confidence reporting
- **Mandatory Iteration** - Forced retry if zero files created

### Audit & Monitoring

- Real-time violations monitoring
- CFN Loop protocol enforcement
- Agent lifecycle tracking
- Performance benchmarking

## ⚙️ System Requirements

### Required Dependencies

```json
{
  "node": ">=18.0.0",
  "redis": ">=6.0",
  "sqlite3": ">=5.1.0"
}
```

### Core Dependencies

```json
{
  "@anthropic-ai/sdk": "^0.67.0",
  "redis": "^5.8.3",
  "better-sqlite3": "^12.4.1",
  "commander": "^11.1.0",
  "dotenv": "^17.2.3"
}
```

### Optional

- Z.ai provider account (for 95-98% cost savings)
- Web portal dependencies (Socket.io for real-time monitoring)

---

## 🎓 Learning & Adaptation

### Playbook System

**SQLite-Based Pattern Storage**
- Similarity matching for task queries
- Agent performance tracking per domain
- Historical confidence data
- Expected iterations prediction
- 60%+ hit rate after 10 tasks

### Continuous Improvement

**Automatic After Each Sprint**
1. Extract patterns from execution logs
2. Identify bottlenecks and failures
3. Rank agent performance
4. Generate improvement recommendations
5. Update playbook with successful strategies

**Expected Learning Curve**
- First execution: 5 iterations (no playbook)
- Second execution: 4 iterations (initial pattern)
- Fifth execution: 2-3 iterations (refined pattern)
- Tenth execution: 2 iterations (optimized)

---

## 🌐 Multi-Sprint & Epic Support

### Epic Decomposition

```bash
/cfn-loop-epic "Build authentication system with OAuth2, 2FA, sessions"
```

**Automatic Processing**
1. Parse natural language epic description
2. Identify component boundaries
3. Extract dependencies
4. Generate sprint sequence (topological sort)
5. Assign deliverables per sprint
6. Estimate complexity per sprint

### Sprint Execution

**Focused Context Injection**
- Sprint-specific deliverables (not entire epic)
- Clear in_scope and out_of_scope boundaries
- Sprint-level validation criteria
- Prevents agents from over-implementing

**Cross-Sprint Learning**
- Sprint 2 learns from Sprint 1 patterns
- Epic-level retrospective aggregation
- Improved agent selection for later sprints
