Ephemerality: scaling multi-agent development beyond imagination

LayerFS is the substrate under your agents. Each one mounts a complete, writable Workspace over shared committed history, does its work, commits what it changed, and goes away.

Ephemeral Computing

01 →

Compute exists only while a command runs.

Decentralized Agents

02 →

Agents on different computers share one serverless Store.

store.dbC41C42C43C44C45C46C47computer 1computer 2computer 3computer 4

Shared storage: Every agent commits to one Store, with no DB server.

Distributed computing: Each agent runs on its own computer.

Multiagent Coordination

03 →

One project, many branches. One branch, many agents.

Commits: Every tool call is a commit on its branch.

Conflict: A same-file clash is refused with Conflict.

Blame: Each line names the step that wrote it.

Recursive Filesystem

04 →

Fork recursively any commit, at any depth.

Zero cost: A fork is metadata and copies no files.

Recursive: A filesystem for RSI agents and recursive exploration for RL training.

Ultra Storage Optimization

05 →

10 copies compress into 0.31.

Instant Bootstrap

Dependencies come with every mount. No wasting time for re-installation.
