CVC is Git for AI agent memory — cognitive version control that gives AI coding agents the ability to save, branch, rewind, and merge their entire cognitive state.
CVC (Cognitive Version Control) is middleware that sits between AI coding tools and LLM providers, capturing every conversation turn as an immutable, cryptographic snapshot. It gives AI agents five powers they have never had: Save, Branch, Rewind, Merge, and Search. CVC supports 13 LLM providers (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, GitHub Copilot, NVIDIA NIM, Vertex, Ollama, LM Studio, MiniMax, OpenRouter, Mistral, DeepSeek, Groq), works on macOS, Windows, Linux x86_64, Linux ARM64, Termux on Android, and Docker, runs completely offline with Ollama, and reduces API costs by ~90% through prompt caching.
CVC (Cognitive Version Control) is the first version control system for AI agent cognition. Just as Git revolutionized source code management by introducing commits, branches, and merges, CVC does the same for AI agent memory. Built on a Merkle DAG with content-addressed storage, CVC captures every AI conversation turn as an immutable, cryptographically verified snapshot. This enables five core operations: Save (checkpoint the AI brain), Branch (explore risky ideas in isolation), Rewind (time-travel to any previous state), Merge (combine insights from branches), and Search (find when the AI solved similar problems). CVC ships a 6-Layer Self-Improvement Stack: (1) Adaptive Behavior that learns from every session, (2) Dream Cycle that auto-generates skills from conversation, (3) Weekly Patch Proposal Engine with sandbox testing, (4) Policy Gates for declarative allow/deny/require_approval rules, (5) Mode Switch with observe/supervised/autopilot enforced at the dispatch layer, (6) Mission Envelopes for long-running agent jobs with budget caps and 5-provider fallback chains. CVC supports 13 LLM providers, runs on macOS, Windows, Linux x86_64, Linux ARM64, Termux on Android, and Docker, and reduces API costs by ~90% through prompt caching. CVC is free to use and installs in 60 seconds.
CVC v3.5.39 ships the 6-Layer Self-Improvement Stack (Adaptive → Dream → Patch Proposal → Policy Gates → Mode Switch → Mission Envelopes) plus four cross-platform tool-call fixes: gateway text-salvage recovers wire-format <function_calls> blocks as real SSE events, silent dud recovery suppresses scary warnings on self-correcting tool calls, one-question-per-clarification stops models from pre-generating multiple questions, and `cvc doctor-env` provides full env + LLM diagnostics in one command. Anthropic /api/chat base_url fix pins the MiniMax / Anthropic-compatible route at https://api.minimax.io/anthropic across five resolution layers.
The dashboard chat route now resolves to the correct MiniMax / Anthropic-compatible base URL. Six regression tests pin the URL across five resolution layers.
Long-running agent jobs with hard budget caps (wall_seconds, max_tokens, max_cost_usd, max_iterations), stop conditions, and a fallback chain of 5 LLM providers. Provider-agnostic — the same mission runs on Anthropic, OpenAI, MiniMax, OpenRouter, or local Ollama.
Enforced at the dispatch layer, not just hinted in the system prompt. `cvc mode set observe` blocks every write tool; `cvc mode set autopilot` runs the agent with full autonomy under Layer 4 policy gates.
Declarative YAML allow/deny/require_approval rules. Drop a file into `~/.cvc/policies.d/` for an instant guardrail. Engine evaluates rules in priority order (deny wins over allow; require_approval is never auto-overridden).
CVC v3.5.x ships 166 bundled skills (zero external installs), Holographic Memory + Sofia Curator (Cat 4 Phase E), persistent memory + session_search + streaming PII scrubber (Phase D), free offline voice via faster-whisper, GitHub Copilot OAuth + NVIDIA NIM + Vertex + LM Studio adapters (8 providers total), one-click /sync CLI parity, 3-mode approval (Strict/Smart/YOLO), bulletproof tool-call gateway watchdog, and a first-run setup gate that eliminates silent finishes.
CVC introduces Hive Mind — a hierarchical swarm topology with 4-tier neural cortex visualization, real-time WebSocket telemetry, atomic SQLite locking for concurrent agents, role-based per-agent branches, CRDT-based distributed sync via Gossip protocol, and a HiveMemory layer that lets agents share knowledge without direct messaging.
CVC v2.32.x ships the dashboard composer with full CLI surface parity — persona/workspace/model/reasoning/context/tree composer bar, in-place Git branch picker, IDE-style file viewer with diff, multi-workspace persistence and switching, persistent chat history, type-while-streaming queue, and persistent tool cards.
A native VS Code extension lands with auto-commit, GitHub Copilot bridge, and a dark dashboard surface — the first IDE-embedded surface for CVC alongside the CLI, web, and Telegram bot.
CVC launches publicly with full cognitive version control — save, branch, rewind, merge, and search for AI agent memory. Free on PyPI as tm-ai.
CVC introduces Sofia, a planning-first AI agent with self-improving memory and 7 specialized sub-agents for Security, UI, Data, and more.
Upcoming release enabling teams to push and pull AI cognitive state, share memory pools, and access team-wide cost analytics.
“Git for code. CVC for context. The time machine for AI agents.”
