## Executive summary

**rUv** (GitHub `ruvnet`, Twitter `ruv`, blog `Cognitum.One`) is the creator of **Ruflo** (formerly Claude Flow), a multi-agent orchestration platform for Claude Code with 39k+ stars. The account joined GitHub in 2012, hosts 173 public repos, has 7,268 followers, and lists company "Not a Bot" / location "0x". The portfolio clusters around three themes:

1. **Agent orchestration** (`ruflo`, `agentic-flow`, `swarm-*`)
2. **Self-learning AI infrastructure** (`RuVector`, `ruv-FANN`, `RuLake`)
3. **Edge / unconventional sensing** (`RuView` for WiFi-based vital monitoring, `ultrasonic` for steganographic agent commands)

A ruflo-internal "Dossier" repo also exists (33 stars) — visual planning for AI coding — distinct from this dossier output.

## Themes (clustered by recursive expansion)

### 1. Agent orchestration cluster
- `ruflo` (39k ⭐ TS, the flagship)
- `agentic-flow` (low-cost model switcher; integration partner)
- `open-claude-code` (CC reverse engineering)
- `marketing` (agentic marketing swarm)
- `agentic-voice` (Next.js + OpenAI + Exa chat)

### 2. Self-learning infrastructure cluster
- `RuVector` (GNN vector DB, Rust+WASM, ONNX)
- `RuLake` (cache-coherent vector exec layer)
- `ruv-FANN` (FANN port to Rust)
- `obsidian-brain` (Obsidian plugin → RuVector)

### 3. Unconventional sensing & control cluster
- `RuView` (WiFi vital monitoring, no camera)
- `ultrasonic` (steganographic agent commands in audio/video)
- `Connectome-OS` (debugging for embodied graph systems)
- `musica` (audio separation via spectral graph mincut)

## Source provenance

- **Round 0 fan-out** (parallel, 1 batch): `gh api users/ruvnet`, `gh api users/ruvnet/repos?sort=updated`, `WebSearch "ruvnet github ruflo claude-flow agentic"`
- **Round 1 expansion** (parallel, 1 batch): `gh api repos/ruvnet/ruflo`, `gh api repos/ruvnet/RuVector`, `gh api repos/ruvnet/agentic-flow`, `gh api users/ruvnet/repos?sort=stars`
- **Dedup**: 0 collisions (all entities surfaced once)
- **Budget spent**: ~3.2k tokens, $0 (gh API + WebSearch are free; no Anthropic calls beyond orchestration)

## Risks / open questions

- `RuView` star count (51,576) substantially exceeds `ruflo` (39,201) — surprising given ruflo is the headline project; worth verifying.
- "Cognitum.One" is listed as the personal blog but also appears as an org in `cognitum-claude-plugin` — relationship between rUv / Not a Bot / Cognitum.One could be expanded in a depth-3 run.
- 173 public repos but only 15 expanded here; depth-3 with `--max-breadth 30` would cover the rest.
