Ingests diverse document types (PDF, TXT, Markdown, DOCX) through Brain.from_files() and automatically chunks content into semantically meaningful segments for vector storage. Uses configurable chunking strategies that preserve document structure while optimizing for retrieval performance. Handles file parsing, text extraction, and pre-processing in a unified pipeline before embedding.
Unique: Provides opinionated, configuration-driven document ingestion through Brain.from_files() that abstracts away format-specific parsing complexity while maintaining a unified interface across PDF, TXT, Markdown, and DOCX — eliminates need for custom file handlers in most use cases
vs alternatives: Simpler than LangChain's document loaders because it bundles ingestion, chunking, and embedding in one call rather than requiring separate loader + splitter + embedding chains
Abstracts vector storage through a configurable backend system supporting PGVector (PostgreSQL), FAISS (local), and other vector databases. Automatically generates embeddings using configured LLM endpoints and persists vectors with metadata. The Brain class manages the lifecycle of vector store initialization, document indexing, and retrieval without exposing backend-specific APIs to the user.
Unique: Implements a configuration-driven vector store abstraction that decouples embedding generation from storage backend, allowing seamless switching between PGVector and FAISS without code changes — achieved through a unified VectorStore interface that normalizes backend-specific APIs
vs alternatives: More flexible than LangChain's vector store integrations because it treats vector storage as a first-class configurable component rather than an afterthought, enabling production teams to optimize storage independently from retrieval logic
Provides the Brain class as a stateful container for RAG operations, managing document ingestion, vector store lifecycle, conversation history, and pipeline configuration. Brain instances can be serialized and persisted to disk or external storage, enabling recovery of RAG state across application restarts. Supports both in-memory and persistent backends.
Unique: Treats Brain as a first-class stateful object that encapsulates all RAG components (documents, vectors, conversation, configuration), enabling atomic persistence and recovery — eliminates need to manage vector store, conversation history, and configuration separately
vs alternatives: More cohesive than managing RAG state across separate components because Brain provides a unified interface for persistence, reducing complexity in production deployments
Provides configurable prompt templates for each RAG pipeline step (query rewriting, retrieval, generation) that can be customized via configuration files or programmatically. Templates support variable substitution for query, context, and conversation history. Enables fine-tuning of LLM behavior without code changes.
Unique: Exposes prompt templates as configuration artifacts rather than hardcoding them in pipeline code, enabling non-developers to tune generation behavior through YAML without touching Python
vs alternatives: More flexible than fixed prompts because it allows per-deployment customization, enabling teams to optimize for domain-specific language and generation quality
Provides a production-ready FastAPI backend that exposes Quivr RAG capabilities through REST endpoints. Handles authentication, request validation, error handling, and response formatting. Integrates with Supabase for user management and document storage. Enables deployment of RAG as a scalable web service.
Unique: Wraps quivr-core RAG engine in a production-ready FastAPI service with built-in authentication (Supabase), request validation, and error handling — eliminates need to build custom backend infrastructure around RAG
vs alternatives: More complete than raw FastAPI wrappers because it includes authentication, multi-user support, and document storage integration out-of-the-box
Provides a production-ready Next.js frontend application with a chat interface for interacting with RAG. Includes real-time message streaming, conversation history display, document upload, and configuration management. Integrates with the FastAPI backend and provides a reference implementation for RAG UI patterns.
Unique: Provides a complete, production-ready chat UI built with Next.js that demonstrates RAG best practices (streaming, history management, error handling) — serves as both a functional application and a reference implementation
vs alternatives: More complete than example code because it's a fully functional application with proper error handling, styling, and UX patterns that can be deployed immediately
Implements a sophisticated RAG workflow using LangGraph that chains together four key steps: filter_history (conversation context management), rewrite (query optimization), retrieve (semantic search), and generate_rag (LLM-based answer generation). Each step is a discrete node in a directed acyclic graph, enabling conditional routing, error handling, and extensibility. The QuivrQARAGLangGraph class manages state transitions and data flow between steps.
Unique: Uses LangGraph's node-based workflow model to decompose RAG into discrete, composable steps (filter_history → rewrite → retrieve → generate_rag) rather than a monolithic function, enabling conditional routing and step-level customization while maintaining clean state management across the pipeline
vs alternatives: More modular than simple RAG chains because LangGraph's explicit node structure allows developers to insert custom logic, conditional branching, or tool calls at any pipeline stage without rewriting the entire flow
Automatically rewrites user queries using an LLM before retrieval to improve semantic matching and reduce ambiguity. The rewrite step in the RAG pipeline transforms natural language queries into optimized forms that better align with document content and retrieval model expectations. This step operates within the LangGraph pipeline and uses the configured LLM endpoint.
Unique: Integrates query rewriting as a first-class pipeline step in the LangGraph workflow rather than an optional post-processing layer, ensuring all queries benefit from optimization before retrieval and enabling conditional routing based on rewrite confidence
vs alternatives: More transparent than implicit query expansion in vector databases because the rewritten query is visible and debuggable, allowing developers to understand and tune retrieval behavior

Implements a hierarchical agent system where multiple specialized agents (Observer, Skill Creator, Evaluator, etc.) coordinate through a central harness using pre/post-tool-use hooks and session-based context passing. Agents delegate subtasks via explicit hand-off patterns defined in agent.yaml, with state synchronized through SQLite-backed session persistence and strategic context window compaction to prevent token overflow during multi-step workflows.
Unique: Uses a hook-based pre/post-tool-use interception system combined with SQLite session persistence and strategic context compaction to enable stateful multi-agent coordination without requiring external orchestration platforms. The Observer Agent pattern detects execution patterns and feeds them into the Continuous Learning v2 system for autonomous skill evolution.
vs alternatives: Unlike LangChain's sequential agent chains or AutoGen's message-passing model, ECC integrates directly into IDE workflows with persistent session state and automatic context optimization, enabling tighter coupling with Claude's native capabilities.
Implements a closed-loop learning pipeline (Continuous Learning v2 Architecture) where an Observer Agent monitors code execution patterns, detects recurring problems, and automatically generates new skills via the Skill Creator. Instincts are structured as pattern-matching rules stored in SQLite, evolved through an evaluation system that tracks skill health metrics, and scoped to individual projects to prevent cross-project interference. The evolution pipeline includes observation → pattern detection → skill generation → evaluation → integration into the active skill set.
Unique: Combines Observer Agent pattern detection with automatic Skill Creator integration and SQLite-backed instinct persistence, enabling autonomous skill generation without manual prompt engineering. Project-scoped learning prevents skill pollution across different codebases, and the evaluation system provides feedback loops for skill health tracking.

vs alternatives: Unlike static prompt libraries or manual skill curation, ECC's continuous learning automatically discovers and evolves skills based on actual execution patterns, with project isolation preventing cross-project interference that plagues global knowledge bases.
Provides a Checkpoint & Verification Workflow that creates savepoints of project state at key milestones, verifies code quality and functionality at each checkpoint, and enables rollback to previous checkpoints if verification fails. Checkpoints are stored in session state with full context snapshots, and verification uses the Plankton Code Quality System and Evaluation System to assess quality. The workflow integrates with version control to track checkpoint history.
Unique: Creates savepoints of project state with integrated verification and rollback capability, enabling safe exploration of changes with ability to revert to known-good states. Checkpoints are tracked in version control for audit trails.
vs alternatives: Unlike manual version control commits or external backup systems, ECC's checkpoint workflow integrates verification directly into the savepoint process, ensuring checkpoints represent verified, quality-assured states.
Implements Autonomous Loop Patterns that enable agents to self-direct task execution without human intervention, using the planning-reasoning system to decompose tasks, execute them through agent delegation, and verify results through evaluation. Loops can be configured with termination conditions (max iterations, success criteria, token budget) and include safeguards to prevent infinite loops. The Observer Agent monitors loop execution and feeds patterns into continuous learning.
Unique: Enables self-directed agent execution with configurable termination conditions and integrated safety guardrails, using the planning-reasoning system to decompose tasks and agent delegation to execute subtasks. Observer Agent monitors execution patterns for continuous learning.
vs alternatives: Unlike manual step-by-step agent control or external orchestration platforms, ECC's autonomous loops integrate task decomposition, execution, and verification into a self-contained workflow with built-in safeguards.
Provides Token Optimization Strategies that monitor token usage across agent execution, identify high-cost operations, and apply optimization techniques (context compaction, selective context inclusion, prompt compression) to reduce token consumption. Context Window Management tracks available tokens per platform and automatically adjusts context inclusion strategies to stay within limits. The system includes token budgeting per task and alerts when approaching limits.
Unique: Combines token usage monitoring with heuristic-based optimization strategies (context compaction, selective inclusion, prompt compression) and per-task budgeting to keep token consumption within limits while preserving essential context.
vs alternatives: Unlike static context window management or post-hoc cost analysis, ECC's token optimization actively monitors and optimizes token usage during execution, applying multiple strategies to stay within budgets.
Implements a Package Manager System that enables installation, versioning, and distribution of skills, rules, and commands as packages. Packages are defined in manifest files (install-modules.json) with dependency specifications, and the package manager handles dependency resolution, conflict detection, and selective installation. Packages can be installed from local directories, Git repositories, or package registries, and the system tracks installed versions for reproducibility.
Unique: Provides a package manager for skills and rules with dependency resolution, conflict detection, and support for multiple package sources (Git, local, registry). Packages are versioned for reproducibility and tracked for audit trails.
vs alternatives: Unlike manual skill copying or monolithic skill repositories, ECC's package manager enables modular skill distribution with dependency management and version control.
Automatically detects project type, framework, and structure by analyzing codebase patterns, package manifests, and configuration files. Infers project context (language, framework, testing patterns, coding standards) and uses this to select appropriate skills, rules, and commands. The system maintains a project detection cache to avoid repeated analysis and integrates with the CLAUDE.md context file for explicit project metadata.
Unique: Automatically detects project type and infers context by analyzing codebase patterns and configuration files, enabling zero-configuration setup where Claude adapts to project structure without manual specification.
vs alternatives: Unlike manual project configuration or static project templates, ECC's project detection automatically adapts to diverse project structures and infers context from codebase patterns.
Integrates the Plankton Code Quality System for structural analysis of generated code using language-specific parsers (tree-sitter for 40+ languages) instead of regex-based matching. Provides metrics for code complexity, maintainability, test coverage, and style violations. Plankton integrates with the Evaluation System to track code quality trends and with the Skill Creator to generate quality-focused skills.
Unique: Uses tree-sitter AST parsing for 40+ languages to provide structurally-aware code quality analysis instead of regex-based matching, enabling accurate metrics for complexity, maintainability, and style violations.
vs alternatives: More accurate than regex-based linters because it uses language-specific AST parsing to understand code structure, enabling detection of complex quality issues that regex patterns cannot capture.
