ruflo
The leading agent meta-harness for intelligent multi-player swarms and autonomous workflows
GraphCanon updated today · GitHub synced today · 32 views this month
Decision brief
Ruflo, a TypeScript-based meta-harness for deploying intelligent multi-agent systems, offers comprehensive support for autonomous workflows and conversational AI through adaptive memory and RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Gener
Good fit when
- Use Ruflo when you need a full-featured setup including the MCP server, hooks, daemon, and extensive capabilities like memory storage and swarm initialization as these features are tightly integrated.
- Ruflo is ideal for projects requiring autonomous agent behavior with adaptive learning mechanisms or those who wish to experiment with advanced multi-agent system configurations.
Avoid when
- Avoid using Ruflo in scenarios where you only require limited functionality from an agent meta-harness. The extensive features and integrations might introduce unnecessary complexity or overhead.
- Do not use Ruflo if quick setup without deep integration is preferred; its comprehensive nature requires more time for installation compared to simpler frameworks that offer just a few key functions.
- Pricing:
- freemium - As MIT-licensed open-source tool, Ruflo is freely accessible. However, for extended features or support, enterprises might opt into paid tiers or services from contributors.

Quick Start
There are two different install paths with very different surface areas. Pick based on what you need (#1744):
| Claude Code Plugin | CLI install (npx ruflo init) | |
|---|---|---|
| What it gives you | Slash commands + a few skills + agent definitions per-plugin | Full Ruflo loop — 98 agents, 60+ commands, 30 skills, MCP server, hooks, daemon |
| Files in your workspace | Zero | .claude/, .claude-flow/, CLAUDE.md, helpers, settings |
| MCP server registered | Only if ruflo-core is installed (it ships its own .mcp.json) — most other plugins don't | Yes |
| Hooks installed | No | Yes |
| Best for | Try a single plugin's commands without committing to the full install | Production use — everything works as documented |
Install core + any plugins you need
/plugin install ruflo-core@ruflo /plugin install ruflo-swarm@ruflo /plugin install ruflo-rag-memory@ruflo /plugin install ruflo-neural-trader@ruflo
This adds slash commands and agent definitions. `ruflo-core` (installed above) does register its own MCP server on install — its tools are callable as `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__*` (e.g. `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__memory_store`), not the bare `memory_store`/`swarm_init`/`agent_spawn` names the CLI-track scaffold uses. Other plugins generally don't ship their own MCP server. For the full loop with the CLI-track tool names, use Path B below.
