What's new in v6

The first open-source brain that works with sub-agents (Claude Task, Cursor Composer, CrewAI, LangGraph, AutoGen). 22 novel features, none of which exist in any other tool — open source or closed.

Headliners:

• 🔗 SABB — Sub-Agent Brain Bridge injects context slivers into every sub-agent spawn
• 🧭 Causal Memory Chains — every decision traceable to its cause
• 💤 Dream Engine — idle-time reflection via local LLM
• 🏆 Ed25519 Reputation Ledger — cryptographically-signed agent trust scores
• ⚠️ Collision Detective — real-time advisory locks between agents
• 🗣️ Swarm Debate Protocol — pro/con/arbiter multi-agent debate
• 🚨 Pre-Mortem Assistant — surfaces past failures semantically
• 💰 Token Economy — cross-agent spend tracking + auto-routing to cheaper models
• 🔒 Air-gap mode + ChaCha20 encryption — enterprise privacy
• 🧬 Forgetting Curve + Sleep Consolidation — Ebbinghaus-inspired biological memory
• …and 12 more

Numbers

• 48 brain modules · 90+ CLI commands · 60+ MCP tools · 148/148 tests passing
