Hive Mind Capabilities:

• 🐝 Queen Types: Strategic (planning), Tactical (execution), Adaptive (optimization)
• 👷 8 Worker Types: Researcher, Coder, Analyst, Tester, Architect, Reviewer, Optimizer, Documenter
• 🗳️ 3 Consensus Algorithms: Majority, Weighted (Queen 3x), Byzantine (f < n/3)
• 🧠 Collective Memory: Shared knowledge, LRU cache, SQLite persistence with WAL
• ⚡ Performance: 10-20x faster batch spawning, 84.8% SWE-Bench solve rate

Smart routing skips expensive LLM calls when possible. Simple edits use WASM (free), medium tasks use cheaper models. This can extend your Claude Code usage by 250% or save significantly on direct API costs.

What makes Claude-Flow different from other agent frameworks? These 10 capabilities work together to create a system that learns from experience, runs efficiently on any hardware, and keeps working even when things go wrong.

Not every task needs the most powerful (and expensive) model. Claude-Flow analyzes each request and automatically routes it to the cheapest handler that can do the job well. Simple code transforms skip the LLM entirely using WebAssembly. Medium tasks use faster, cheaper models. Only complex architecture decisions use Opus.

Cost & Usage Benefits:

Routing Tiers:

Benchmark Results: 100% routing accuracy, 0.57ms avg routing decision latency

Complex projects fail when implementation drifts from the original plan. Claude-Flow solves this with a spec-first approach: define your architecture through ADRs (Architecture Decision Records), organize code into DDD bounded contexts, and let the system enforce compliance as agents work. The result is implementations that match specifications — even across multi-agent swarms working in parallel.

Environment Variables

All configurations support these environment variables:

MCP Tool Groups

Control which MCP tools are loaded to reduce latency and token usage:

# Enable specific tool groups
export CLAUDE_FLOW_TOOL_GROUPS=implement,test,fix,memory

# Or use a preset mode
export CLAUDE_FLOW_TOOL_MODE=develop

Available Groups: create, issue, branch, implement, test, fix, optimize, monitor, security, memory, all, minimal

Preset Modes:

Precedence: CLI args (--tools=X) > Environment vars > Config file > Default (all)

Security Best Practices

⚠️ Never hardcode API keys in config files checked into version control.

# Use environment variables instead
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-..."

# Or use a .env file (add to .gitignore)
echo "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-..." >> .env

Configuration

Helpers are configured in .claude/settings.json:

{
  "helpers": {
    "directory": ".claude/helpers",
    "enabled": true,
    "v3ProgressUpdater": ".claude/helpers/update-v3-progress.sh",

Coverage-Aware Routing

Routes tasks to agents based on test coverage gaps:

npx claude-flow@v3alpha route coverage

# Finds untested code and routes to tester agent:
# • src/auth/jwt.ts - 23% coverage → tester
# • src/api/users.ts - 45% coverage → tester
# • src/utils/crypto.ts - 0% coverage → security-architect + tester

Routing Hooks

# Route via hooks (preferred)
npx claude-flow@v3alpha hooks route "implement caching layer" --include-explanation

# Record outcome for learning
npx claude-flow@v3alpha hooks post-task --task-id "task-123" --success true --agent coder

How Q-Learning Improves Over Time

The system remembers what works and applies it to future similar tasks.

Use Claude-Flow packages directly in your TypeScript/JavaScript applications.

Installation

# Install specific packages
npm install @claude-flow/cli @claude-flow/memory @claude-flow/swarm

# Or install everything
npm install claude-flow@v3alpha

Quick Examples

import { AgentDB } from '@claude-flow/memory';

// Initialize with HNSW indexing (150x faster)
const db = new AgentDB({
  path: './data/memory',
  hnsw: { m: 16, efConstruction: 200 }
});

// Store patterns with embeddings
await db.store('auth-pattern', {
  content: 'JWT authentication flow',
  domain: 'security',
  embedding: await db.embed('JWT authentication flow')
});

// Semantic search
const results = await db.search('how to authenticate users', {
  topK: 5,
  minSimilarity: 0.7
});

console.log(results);
// [{ key: 'auth-pattern', similarity: 0.92, content: '...' }]

import { createSwarm } from '@claude-flow/swarm';

// Create a hierarchical swarm
const swarm = await createSwarm({

});

// Spawn agents
await swarm.spawn('coder', { name: 'coder-1' });
await swarm.spawn('tester', { name: 'tester-1' });
await swarm.spawn('reviewer', { name: 'reviewer-1' });

// Coordinate a task
const result = await swarm.orchestrate({
  task: 'Implement user authentication',
  strategy: 'adaptive'

// Shutdown
await swarm.shutdown({ graceful: true });

import { isSafe, checkThreats, createAIDefence } from '@claude-flow/aidefence';

Version Evolution

RuVector is a high-performance vector database and neural computing library written in Rust with Node.js/WASM bindings. It powers Claude-Flow's intelligence layer with native speed.

Quick Start

# Install ruvector (auto-detects native vs WASM)
npm install ruvector

# Or run directly
npx ruvector --help

# Start Postgres for centralized coordination
docker run -d -p 5432:5432 ruvnet/ruvector-postgres

Package Ecosystem

🐘 RuVector PostgreSQL — Enterprise Vector Database

77+ SQL functions for AI operations directly in PostgreSQL with ~61µs search latency and 16,400 QPS.

# Quick setup with CLI (recommended)
npx claude-flow ruvector setup --output ./my-ruvector
cd my-ruvector && docker-compose up -d

# Or pull directly from Docker Hub
docker run -d \
  --name ruvector-postgres \
  -p 5432:5432 \
  -e POSTGRES_USER=claude \
  -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=claude-flow-test \
  -e POSTGRES_DB=claude_flow \
  ruvnet/ruvector-postgres

# Migrate existing memory to PostgreSQL
npx claude-flow ruvector import --input memory-export.json

RuVector PostgreSQL vs pgvector:

Key SQL Functions:

-- Vector operations with HNSW indexing
SELECT * FROM embeddings ORDER BY embedding <=> query_vec LIMIT 10;

-- Hyperbolic embeddings for hierarchical data
SELECT ruvector_poincare_distance(a, b, -1.0) AS distance;
SELECT ruvector_mobius_add(a, b, -1.0) AS result;

-- Cosine similarity
SELECT cosine_similarity_arr(a, b) AS similarity;

Benefits over Local SQLite:

import { FlashAttention } from '@ruvector/attention';

const attention = new FlashAttention({
  blockSize: 32,      // L1 cache optimized
  dimensions: 384,
  temperature: 1.0,
  useCPUOptimizations: true
});

// Compute attention with O(N) memory instead of O(N²)
const result = attention.attention(queries, keys, values);
console.log(`Computed in ${result.computeTimeMs}ms`);

// Benchmark against naive implementation
const bench = attention.benchmark(512, 384, 5);
console.log(`Speedup: ${bench.speedup}x`);
console.log(`Memory reduction: ${bench.memoryReduction}x`);

import { SONA } from '@ruvector/sona';

const sona = new SONA({
  enableLoRA: true,       // Low-rank adaptation
  enableEWC: true,        // Elastic Weight Consolidation
  learningRate: 0.001
});

// Start learning trajectory
const trajectory = sona.startTrajectory('task-123');

// Record steps during execution
trajectory.recordStep({
  type: 'observation',
  content: 'Found authentication bug'
});
trajectory.recordStep({
  type: 'action',
  content: 'Applied JWT validation fix'
});

// Complete trajectory with verdict
await trajectory.complete('success');

// EWC++ consolidation (prevents forgetting)
await sona.consolidate();

import { GraphDB } from '@ruvector/graph-node';

const db = new GraphDB({ path: './data/graph' });

// Create nodes and relationships
await db.query(`
  CREATE (a:Agent {name: 'coder', type: 'specialist'})
  CREATE (b:Agent {name: 'reviewer', type: 'specialist'})
  CREATE (a)-[:COLLABORATES_WITH {weight: 0.9}]->(b)
`);

// Query patterns
const result = await db.query(`
  MATCH (a:Agent)-[r:COLLABORATES_WITH]->(b:Agent)
  WHERE r.weight > 0.8
  RETURN a.name, b.name, r.weight
`);

// Hypergraph support for multi-agent coordination
await db.createHyperedge(['agent-1', 'agent-2', 'agent-3'], {
  type: 'consensus',
  topic: 'architecture-decision'
});

Integration with Claude-Flow

Claude-Flow automatically uses RuVector when available:

// Claude-Flow detects and uses native ruvector
import { getVectorStore } from '@claude-flow/memory';

const store = await getVectorStore();
// Uses ruvector if installed, falls back to sql.js

// HNSW-indexed search (150x faster)
const results = await store.search(queryVector, 10);

// Flash Attention for pattern matching
const attention = await getFlashAttention();
const similarity = attention.attention(queries, keys, values);

CLI Commands
