Middleware, Not a Replacement — Why CVC Works With Every AI Tool

The Middleware Advantage

Most AI developer tools ask you to switch. CVC takes the opposite approach. It wraps around whatever you already use.

CVC is middleware — it sits transparently between your AI tool and the LLM provider, capturing every conversation turn without your tool even knowing it's there.

One Configuration Change

For Claude Code:

cvc launch claude

For Cursor:

{"servers": {"cvc": {"command": "cvc", "args": ["mcp"]}}}

For Aider:

cvc launch aider

That's it. Your tool keeps working exactly as before. But now every conversation is versioned, branchable, and rewindable.

Why This Matters

1. Zero switching cost — keep using the tools you know and love
2. Future-proof — when a new AI tool launches, CVC wraps it too
3. Stack flexibility — use different tools for different tasks, same CVC database
4. No vendor lock-in — CVC works across providers, across tools, across modes
