High-performance neural network swarm orchestration in WebAssembly
What if every task, every file, every function could truly think? Just for a moment. No LLM required. That's what ruv-swarm makes real.
npx ruv-swarm@latest init --claude
ruv-swarm lets you spin up ultra-lightweight custom neural networks that exist just long enough to solve the problem. Tiny purpose-built brains dedicated to solving very specific challenges.
Think particular coding structures, custom communications, trading optimization - neural networks built on the fly just for the task they need to exist for, long enough to solve it, then gone.
Built for the GPU-poor: These agents are CPU-native and GPU-optional. Rust compiles to high-speed WASM binaries that run anywhere - browser, edge, server - with zero external dependencies. You could even embed these in RISC-V or other low-power chip designs.
Each agent behaves like a synthetic synapse, dynamically created and orchestrated as part of a living global swarm network. Topologies like mesh, ring, and hierarchy support collective learning, mutation/evolution, and real-time adaptation.
You're not calling a model. You're instantiating intelligence.
Temporary, composable, and surgically precise.
Get started with ruv-swarm in under 2 minutes:
# Try instantly with npx
npx ruv-swarm init mesh 5
npx ruv-swarm spawn researcher "AI Research Agent"
npx ruv-swarm orchestrate "Research the latest advances in neural architecture search"
# Use Claude Code hooks for automated coordination
npx ruv-swarm hook pre-task --description "Your task description"
npx ruv-swarm hook post-task --task-id "task-123" --analyze-performance true
Or use programmatically:
import { RuvSwarm } from 'ruv-swarm';
// Initialize with cognitive diversity
const swarm = await RuvSwarm.initialize({
topology: 'mesh',
cognitiveProfiles: true,
wasmOptimizations: ['simd', 'memory-pool']
});
// Create specialized agents
const researcher = await swarm.spawn({
type: 'researcher',
cognitiveProfile: { analytical: 0.9, creative: 0.7 }
});
const coder = await swarm.spawn({
type: 'coder',
cognitiveProfile: { systematic: 0.9, creative: 0.6 }
});
// Orchestrate complex workflows
const result = await swarm.orchestrate({
task: "Build a neural architecture search system",
strategy: "collaborative",
agents: [researcher, coder]
});
# Standard installation
npm install ruv-swarm
# Global CLI installation (recommended for servers)
npm install -g ruv-swarm
# Development installation
npm install ruv-swarm --save-dev
Important: ruv-swarm requires WebAssembly support. Ensure your environment meets these requirements:
If you encounter WASM loading issues, see the Troubleshooting section.
# Run directly without installation - works on any remote server

ruv-swarm is fully compatible with remote servers using npx:
# ✅ Works on any remote server with Node.js 14+
ssh user@remote-server 'npx ruv-swarm init mesh 10'
# ✅ Start MCP server remotely
ssh user@remote-server 'npx ruv-swarm mcp start --port 3000 &'
# ✅ Run benchmarks on remote hardware
ssh user@remote-server 'npx ruv-swarm benchmark --test swe-bench'
# ✅ Deploy with screen/tmux for persistence
ssh user@remote-server 'screen -S ruv-swarm -d -m npx ruv-swarm mcp start'
# Docker deployment (recommended)
docker run -d -p 3000:3000 --name ruv-swarm \
-e NODE_ENV=production \
-e RUVA_SWARM_MAX_AGENTS=50 \
