# Substrate

A Plexus RPC server. Write Rust methods with `#[hub_method]`, get a
self-describing streaming RPC server with WebSocket, MCP, and CLI access
— no separate schema files, no drift.

---

## Architecture

Three layers. Each knows only about the layer below it.

## Activations

| Activation | Purpose |
|---|---|
| **orcha** | Multi-agent orchestration — run ticket plans as parallel agent DAGs, human approval gates, child graphs. See [`docs/activations/orcha/README.md`](docs/activations/orcha/README.md). |
| **lattice** | DAG execution engine underlying Orcha. Nodes, edges, typed tokens, scatter/gather, join types. |
| **arbor** | Conversation tree storage. Backs agent session history. |
| **claudecode** | Claude Code CLI session wrapper. Spawns and manages Claude sessions. |
| **claudecode_loopback** | Tool-use approval routing. Claude sessions request permission; routed through the approval API. |
| **bash** | Shell command execution. |
| **changelog** | API hash tracking — logs when the method schema changes between restarts. |
| **mustache** | Template rendering. |

---

## Access

Everything is exposed on port `4444`:

- **WebSocket** — `ws://localhost:4444`
- **MCP** — `http://localhost:4444/mcp` (all methods appear as MCP tools)
- **Synapse CLI** — `synapse substrate <namespace> <method> [--param value]`
- **In-process Rust** — `DynamicHub::call(method, params)`

---

## Quickstart

```bash
# Start
substrate-start

# Explore available methods
LANG=C.UTF-8 synapse substrate

# Run an agent graph from a ticket plan
LANG=C.UTF-8 synapse substrate orcha run_tickets_files \
  --ticket_files '["plans/TDD/TDD-1.md"]' \
  --model sonnet \
  --working_directory /workspace/hypermemetic/plexus-substrate
```
