What is Kaneru?
Kaneru is Mayros's multi-agent venture management system. It lets you create AI ventures — organizations of agents with missions, chain of command, fuel budgets, and learning profiles. Every entity is stored in Cortex as semantic triples, every state change is DAG-committed for full auditability.
Ventures
Organizational containers with fuel limits, mission prefixes, and directives.
Missions
Work units with lifecycle: queued → ready → active → review → complete.
Learning
Agents build expertise profiles over time via EMA-smoothed performance tracking.
Consensus
Multi-agent decisions with 5 strategies including Byzantine fault tolerance.
Quick Start
bash# Install a pre-built venture template mayros kaneru dojo install --template security-audit --name "My Security Team" # Or create step by step mayros kaneru venture create --name "Acme" --prefix ACM --directive "Ship fast" --fuel-limit 10000 mayros kaneru mission create --venture <id> --title "Audit auth module" --priority critical
Or use the Setup Wizard in the web portal: open mayros dashboard → Ventures tab → New Venture.
Architecture
Venture (organization)
├── Project (group of missions)
│ └── Mission (work unit)
│ ├── Comments (discussion thread)
│ ├── Fuel Events (cost tracking)
│ └── Learning Profile (agent expertise)
├── Directive (strategic → objective → task tree)
├── Chain of Command (agent escalation hierarchy)
└── Pulse Schedule (agent wake triggers)
All stored as Cortex RDF triples — queryable by any agent, DAG-auditable, time-travelable.
Key Concepts
Ventures
A venture is the top-level organizational container. It has a name, directive, fuel limit, and a unique prefix for mission identifiers (e.g., SEC-1, OPS-42).
bashmayros kaneru venture create --name "Security Audit" --prefix SEC --directive "Ship secure code" --fuel-limit 10000 mayros kaneru venture list
Missions
Missions are the work units agents execute. They follow a strict state machine:
queued → ready → active → review → complete
↓
abandoned
Agents claim missions atomically (optimistic concurrency). Only the claiming run can transition the mission.
bashmayros kaneru mission create --venture <id> --title "Audit auth module" --priority critical mayros kaneru mission claim --mission <id> --agent scanner --run run-001 mayros kaneru mission transition --mission <id> --status complete --run run-001
Learning Profiles
After each mission, agents update their expertise profile (domain × task type). The routing system blends Q-learning values with expertise scores to assign missions to the best agent automatically.
bashmayros kaneru learn profile --agent scanner # typescript:security-scan — expertise: 92%, success: 95%, missions: 47 mayros kaneru learn top --domain typescript --task-type security-scan
Fuel Control
Fuel is Mayros's cost tracking system. Every LLM call is recorded as a fuel event with provider, model, tokens, and cost in integer cents. No monthly reset needed — spend is computed on-the-fly from event history.
bashmayros kaneru fuel summary --venture <id> mayros kaneru fuel analytics --venture <id> --period weekly mayros kaneru fuel forecast --venture <id>
Decision History
Every consensus decision is persisted with full reasoning — question, votes, strategy, outcome, participants, and confidence. Queryable and explainable.
bashmayros kaneru decisions list --venture <id> mayros kaneru decisions explain --decision <id>
Dojo Templates
Pre-built venture templates that install a complete setup in one command:
bashmayros kaneru dojo list # security-audit, content-pipeline, devops-squad mayros kaneru dojo install --template security-audit --name "My Security Team" # Creates venture + 3 agents + escalation hierarchy + 6 directives
Templates can also be downloaded from the Skill Hub marketplace.
Web Portal
The portal at http://localhost:18789 includes Kaneru-specific tabs:
- Ventures — venture table, mission kanban, chain tree, fuel bars
- Kaneru — squads, Q-learning router, squad builder
- Canvas — interactive A2UI surfaces (overview, missions, chain, fuel)
- Setup Wizard — 4-step guided venture creation
- Command Bar (
Ctrl+/) — Spotlight-style overlay with venture context and voice input
