> **The Operating System for AI Agents** — Persistent Operational Memory, Swarm Orchestration, and Local-First Sovereignty.

Nucleus is the **Recursive Aggregator** that gives your AI agents a persistent brain (`.brain/`) and a file system. It turns stateless chatbots into stateful **Sovereign Agents**.

### Context vs. Control
Claude's `CLAUDE.md` provides **static context**. Nucleus provides **active control**.

| Feature | CLAUDE.md / .cursorrules | Nucleus (Agent Control Plane) |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **State** | Static (read-only text) | **Dynamic** (Stateful DB, Event Ledger) |
| **Memory** | Session-bound (forgotten on close) | **Persistent** (Project-bound, recallable) |
| **Security** | None (Prompt injection risk) | **Enforced** (Auth boundary, Default Deny) |
| **Tools** | Suggestions only | **Orchestrated Execution** (DAGs) |
| **Audit** | None | **Full Decision Trail** (Who/Why/When) |

## ✨ Governance Features (The Moat)

- **Default Deny Security** — All mounted servers start with NO network/filesystem access.
- **Explicit Consent** — You approve every command. No silent execution.
- **Isolation Boundaries** — Tools cannot see each other or the full chat history.
- **Auth Firewall** — Tokens are stored in Nucleus (Host), never passed to agents.
- **Event Ledger** — Immutable audit trail of every agent decision (`DecisionMade`).
- **Decision Provenance** — v0.6.0 DSoR: Full audit trail with context hashing.
- **IPC Security** — Per-request auth tokens prevent socket impersona…
