Cipher is an AI agent orchestration framework and LLM context memory layer. It provides a collaborative AI knowledge base and a context synchronization service that allows AI agents and CLI tools to maintain a persistent, structured memory of project decisions and codebase patterns across different sessions and machines.
The system distinguishes itself through a version-controlled context model, using branches and commits to track how project knowledge evolves. It features a hierarchical knowledge store where information is organized as markdown files and can be synchronized between local environments and a remote cloud host.
The platform covers a broad range of capabilities including AI memory governance with role-based access control, multi-tenant space isolation, and an agent-skill plugin architecture. It also includes tools for project knowledge curation, memory topic discovery, and a skill marketplace to extend agent capabilities.
User identity and team coordination are managed via browser-based OAuth authentication, team membership management, and a dedicated billing portal for subscription plans.
