Agents don't fit in VMs. They need something that understands how they think.

**945 tests. 14 crates. 6 GPU backends. Zero regressions.** RVM automatically detects new [Claude Code](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@anthropic-ai/claude-code) releases, runs full verification with AI-powered discovery analysis, and publishes verified nightly builds. See [Releases](https://github.com/ruvnet/rvm/releases) | [User Guide](userguide/) | [pi.ruv.io](https://pi.ruv.io)

Part of the [RuVector](https://github.com/ruvnet/RuVector) ecosystem. Uses [RuVix](../../crates/ruvix/) kernel primitives and [RVF](../../crates/rvf/) package format. Designed for [Cognitum](https://cognitum.one) Seed, Appliance, and future chip targets.

Traditional hypervisors were built for an era of static server workloads — long-running VMs with predictable resource needs. AI agents are different. They spawn in milliseconds, communicate in dense, shifting graphs, share context across trust boundaries, and die without warning. VMs are the wrong abstraction.

RVM replaces VMs with *
