Decapod is a repo-native, agent-first control plane written in Rust.
It’s a local, daemonless kernel your agents invoke on demand: shared state, an audit trail of why changes happened, todos that persist across sessions, and proof-gated “truth” to prevent drift from quietly rotting a codebase.
Git-native. No SaaS. Model- and agent-agnostic.
