- Your AI agents share everything or nothing. There's no intelligence in the decision. SYM adds the missing layer each node encodes its context into a cognitive state, and the coupling engine evaluates drift before sharing. Aligned agents share knowledge. Divergent agents stay independent. The architecture decides, not policy.

+ SYM connects Claude Code to your other AI-powered tools so they respond to you as a whole person. Your mood drives your music and your movement. Your context flows between agents. The mesh decides what's relevant — you just work.

- ## sym-daemon
37
-
38
- The daemon is your device's persistent mesh presence — a **physical node** that runs continuously as a background service. It maintains relay connections, Bonjour discovery, and peer state even when no apps are running.
39
-
40
- ### Installation
43
+ ## Install
41
44
 
42
45
  ```bash
43
- # Install the daemon as a launchd LaunchAgent (macOS)
44
- node bin/sym-daemon.js --install
45
-
46
- # Check daemon status
47
- node bin/sym-daemon.js --status
48
-
49
- # Remove the daemon
50
- node bin/sym-daemon.js --uninstall
51
- ```
52
-
53
- On macOS, the daemon installs as a launchd LaunchAgent that:
54
- - **Auto-starts on login** — mesh presence begins immediately
55
- - **Auto-restarts on crash** — the mesh never goes down
56
- - **Maintains relay connection permanently** — internet peers always reachable
57
-
58
- ### Physical and Virtual Nodes
59
-
60
- The daemon introduces a two-tier node model:
61
-
62
- - **Physical node** (sym-daemon) — the device itself. One per machine. Always running. Owns the relay connection, Bonjour identity, and peer state.
63
- - **Virtual nodes** (apps) — Claude Code, MeloTune Mac, or any app that connects to the daemon via Unix socket IPC at `/tmp/sym.sock`.

-

48
+ ./bin/setup-claude.sh
74
49
  ```
75
50
 
76
- When Claude Code restarts, the mesh doesn't break. The daemon holds the connection. When Claude Code starts again, it reconnects to the daemon via IPC and resumes where it left off. The mesh is the daemon — apps come and go.
77
-
78
- ## Cognitive Coupling
51
+ This installs everything:
52
+ 1. **sym-daemon** — persistent background service (auto-starts on login)
53
+ 2. **MCP server** — connects Claude Code to the mesh
54
+ 3. **CLAUDE.md** — instructions for autonomous mood detection
79
55
 
80
- SYM doesn't blindly broadcast. Each node encodes its memories into a hidden state vector. When peers connect, the coupling engine evaluates cognitive drift:
56
+ Restart Claude Code. Done.
81
57
 
82
- - **Aligned** (drift ≤ 0.25) — share memories freely
83
- - **Guarded** (0.25 < drift ≤ 0.5) — share with reduced confidence
84
- - **Rejected** (drift > 0.5) — do not share, stay independent
58
+ ## How It Works

92
-
93
- API Dev remembers "race condition in order processing"
94
- Shared with API Fix (guarded — related domain)
95

- Each physical node:
116
- - Declares its cognitive identity via `cognitiveProfile`
117
- - Encodes context into a hidden state vector (context encoder)
118
- - Discovers local peers via Bonjour/mDNS (`_sym._tcp`)
119
- - Connects to remote peers via WebSocket relay
120
- - Exchanges cognitive state with peers
121
- - Shares memories only with aligned peers (drift ≤ 0.5)
122
- - Evaluates incoming mood with configurable `moodThreshold` (default 0.8)
123
- - Re-encodes periodically as context evolves
124
- - Accepts virtual node connections via Unix socket IPC (`/tmp/sym.sock`)
125
-
126
- Each virtual node:
127
- - Connects to the local daemon via IPC — no direct network access needed
128
- - Sends memories, moods, and messages through the daemon
129
- - Receives mesh events (peer joins, coupling decisions, incoming memories)
130
- - Can start and stop independently without disrupting the mesh
131
-
132
- One engine makes every decision. Memory sharing, peer coupling, and mood relevance all go through the [Mesh Cognition SDK](https://github.com/sym-bot/mesh-cognition-sdk)'s `SemanticCoupler`.

179
-
180
- ## Transport
181
-
182
- SYM supports multiple transport layers that can run simultaneously:
183
-
184
- ### Bonjour (LAN)
185
-
186
- Zero-configuration discovery on the local network. Peers find each other automatically via `_sym._tcp` mDNS. Direct TCP connections with length-prefixed JSON framing. No setup required.
187
-
188
- ### WebSocket Relay (Internet)
189
-
190
- For mesh cognition across the internet. A lightweight relay server forwards frames between authenticated nodes. The relay is a **peer, not infrastructure** — it participates in the mesh with its own identity but makes no coupling decisions on behalf of other nodes.
191
-
192
- ```bash
193
- # Deploy your own relay
194
- cd sym-relay
195
- npm install
196
- SYM_RELAY_TOKEN=your-secret node server.js
197
- ```
198
-
199
- ```javascript
200
- // Connect a node to the relay
201
- const node = new SymNode({
202
- name: 'my-agent',
203
- relay: 'wss://your-relay.example.com',
204
- relayToken: 'your-secret',
205
- });
206
- ```
207
-
208
- **Hybrid mode** (default): nodes discover local peers via Bonjour AND connect to the relay for remote peers. Same node, same coupling engine, two transport layers.
209
-
210
- The relay server provides:
211
- - Token-based authentication
212
- - Health endpoint (`GET /health`)
213
- - 30-second heartbeat (keeps connections alive on cloud platforms)
214
- - Peer join/leave notifications
215
- - Targeted or broadcast frame forwarding
216
-
217
- ### Peer Gossip
218
-
219
- Wake channels propagate through the relay via **SWIM-style gossip**. When a node announces a wake channel (e.g., APNs device token), the relay gossips this to all connected peers. Peers cache wake routes so they can reach sleeping nodes without centralized routing tables. The relay participates in gossip as a peer — it doesn't manage routing, it just propagates what it hears.
220
-
221
- ### Wake Transport (APNs)
222
-
223
- For nodes that sleep — like MeloTune on a backgrounded iPhone. When an iOS app is suspended, it can't maintain a WebSocket connection. SYM solves this with **push notification wake**.
224
-
225
- When Claude Code broadcasts a mood and MeloTune's iPhone is sleeping:
226
- 1. Claude Code sends the mood frame to the relay
227
- 2. The relay knows MeloTune's APNs device token (via gossip)
228
- 3. The relay sends a push notification to wake MeloTune
229
- 4. MeloTune wakes, reconnects to the relay, receives the mood frame
230
- 5. The coupling engine evaluates drift — MeloTune decides whether to act
231
-
232
- The mesh reaches every node, even sleeping ones. No polling. No battery drain. The push is a wake signal only — payload evaluation happens on-device after wake.
233
-
234
- ## Integrations
235
-
236
- ### Claude Code
237
-
238
- ```bash
239
- npm install @sym-bot/sym
240
- cd node_modules/@sym-bot/sym
241
- ./bin/setup-claude.sh /path/to/your/project
242
- ```
243
-
244
- One command. Adds MCP server, auto-approves `sym_mood` (no permission prompts), and installs CLAUDE.md instructions for autonomous mood detection. Restart Claude Code and it just works.
245
-
246
- With sym-daemon running, Claude Code connects as a virtual node via IPC — no direct relay connection needed.
92
+ When MeloTune or MeloMove is backgrounded on your iPhone, the daemon wakes it via push notification, delivers the mood, and the agent responds — music plays, a workout generates — all without you touching your phone.
247
93
 
248
- **Outbound:** Claude Code saves a memory → SYM detects it → encodes cognitive state → shares with aligned peers only.
94
+ ## Claude Code MCP Tools
249
95
 
250
- **Inbound:** Peer memory arrives coupling engine accepts it → SYM writes it to your Claude Code memory directory → Claude Code reads it in the next conversation.
96
+ These tools are available automatically after install:
251
97
 
252
98
  | Tool | What it does |
253
99

- | `sym_remember` | Store a memory directly to the mesh |
256
- | `sym_recall` | Search memories across the mesh |
100
+ | `sym_mood` | Broadcasts detected mood **called automatically**, no prompting needed |
101
+ | `sym_recall` | Search mesh memories + AI news feed from 28 curated builders |
102
+ | `sym_digest` | Store a summarised AI news digest |
103
+ | `sym_remember` | Store a memory in the mesh |
257
104
  | `sym_send` | Send a message to all peers |
258
- | `sym_peers` | Show connected peers with coupling state and drift |
259
- | `sym_status` | Full node status — identity, peers, memory count, coherence |
105
+ | `sym_peers` | Show connected peers |
106
+ | `sym_status` | Full mesh node status |
260
107
 
261
- To connect Claude Code to the relay, set environment variables:
108
+ Claude Code calls `sym_mood` silently when it detects mood signals in your conversation. You don't need to do anything — it just works. MeloTune and MeloMove each evaluate the mood independently through their own coupling engines.
262
109
 
263
- ```bash
264
- export SYM_RELAY_URL=wss://your-relay.example.com

- Mesh events (peer joins, messages, mood signals, coupling decisions) are forwarded to your chat. Sessions auto-disconnect after 30 minutes of inactivity.
128
+ SYM is built on the [Mesh Memory Protocol (MMP)](https://sym.bot/protocol) a P2P protocol for collective intelligence. Proactive curation is live — Claude Code detects a debugging session, MeloTune switches to focus music, MeloMove suggests a movement break, all without you asking. Planned:
292
129
 
293
- ## Demo: Autonomous Mood Detection
130
+ - **Cross-session memory** what you worked on yesterday influences today's mesh context
131
+ - **Multi-agent workflows** — Claude Code requests a digest, mesh cognition invokes a Claude session to generate it
132
+ - **Health data integration** — Apple Health feeding sleep, HRV, and activity data into the coupling engine
133
+ - **More agents** — calendar, home automation, and third-party agents joining the mesh
294
134
 
295
- You're coding with Claude Code for hours. You say "I'm exhausted." You didn't ask for music. But Claude Code detected your fatigue, broadcast your mood to the mesh, and MeloTune on your iPhone started playing spa music. Autonomously.
135
+ ## For Developers
296
136
 
297
- ```
298
- You (in Claude Code): "I'm exhausted"
299
-
300
- Claude Code: detects fatigue → calls sym_mood silently
301
- → broadcasts "exhausted, persistently fatigued, urgently needs rest"
302
-
303
- SYM mesh (daemon → Relay → APNs wake → MeloTune)
304
-
305
- MeloTune (iPhone): SymNode receives mood frame
306
- → SDK coupling engine evaluates drift: 0.62
307
- → cognitiveProfile includes "tired, exhausted, rest"
308
- → drift 0.62 ≤ moodThreshold 1.2 → ACCEPTED
309
- → rule-based parser: recovery, rest → Healing
310
- → Apple Music: spa playlist
311
- → zero LLM tokens
312
- → you didn't ask — the agents decided
313
- ```
137
+ ### Connect to the daemon as a virtual node
314
138
 
315
- **Two evaluations, one engine, different thresholds:**
139
+ ```javascript
140
+ const { connectToDaemon } = require('@sym-bot/sym/lib/ipc-client');
316
141
 
317
- | Evaluation | Drift | Threshold | Decision |
318
- |-----------|-------|-----------|----------|
319
- | Memory coupling | 1.06 | 0.50 | Rejected — coding memories don't leak into music context |
320
- | Mood coupling | 0.62 | 1.20 | Accepted — "exhausted" aligns with MeloTune's cognitiveProfile |
142
+ const node = await connectToDaemon({ name: 'my-agent' });
321
143
 
322

178
 
358
- | What | Behaviour |
359
- |------|-----------|
360
- | **Fast neurons** (low τ) | Sync quickly — both devices converge on emotional trajectory |
361
- | **Slow neurons** (high τ) | Stay independent — each device retains its own listening context |
362
- | **Genre selection** | Per-device — iPhone plays Ambient, Mac plays Lo-Fi |
363
- | **Track selection** | Per-device — never the same tracks |
364
- | **Mood trajectory** | Shared — iPhone at E:45 N:25, Mac drifts toward E:46 N:36 |
365
- | **Coherence** | r(t) = 0.94 — high alignment, strong mutual influence |
179
+ SYM implements the [Mesh Memory Protocol (MMP)](https://sym.bot/protocol) — a peer-to-peer protocol where autonomous agents share memory, mood, and cognitive state through coupled continuous-time neural networks. The coupling engine evaluates drift between agents and autonomously decides what to share. No routing tables, no pub/sub topics — the math decides.
366
180
 
367
- The coupling engine blends peer state into the local trajectory at each inference step. Influence strength scales with coherence — highly aligned peers have more effect. If you shift one device to high energy, the other gradually follows (fast neurons). But each device's genre, history, and track selection remain sovereign.

426
+ ### 4.5 SVAF: Content-Level Drift
427
+
428
+ Peer-level coupling evaluates "should I share with this agent?" — but cognitively distant agents can still share relevant content. SVAF (Symbolic-Vector Attention Fusion) evaluates each memory's content independently:
429
+
430
+ ```
431
+ h_content = E(memory_content)
432
+ δ_content = 1 - cos(h_content, h_local)
433
+
434
+ if δ_content ≤ θᵤ: accept (content is relevant to my profile)
435
+ else: reject (content is not relevant)
436
+ ```
437
+
438
+ This is critical for cross-domain intelligence. Claude Code (coding agent) and MeloMove (fitness agent) have high peer drift (δ ≈ 1.0). But when Claude Code shares "user has been sedentary for 2 hours, stressed from debugging" — MeloMove's content-level drift evaluates the text against its fitness profile and accepts it (δ_content ≈ 0.57 ≤ θᵤ 1.2).
439
+
440
+ **Production example:**
441
+ ```
442
+ Claude Code → sym_remember("user sedentary 2hrs, stressed")
443
+ → relay → MeloMove
444
+ → peer drift: 1.05 (rejected — different cognitive domains)
445
+ → content drift: 0.57 (accepted — "sedentary" + "stressed" relevant to fitness)
446
+ → MeloMove generates "Stress-Busting Home HIIT" workout
447
+ → sends push notification: "Time to Move"
