VCP (Variable & Command Protocol) is deployed between model APIs and front-end apps. Rather than a tool-calling framework, it aims to give an AI one continuous existence: a single timeline across web, mobile, desktop, group chats and email, so a conversation started on one client continues on another.

Its memory system, RiverMemo, treats memories as an associative network instead of plain vector similarity, and the heavy computation runs in a Rust native core. Before each request, VCP pre-computes what the model should know right now, such as relevant memories, time, weather, schedules and device state, instead of making the agent query for them. Agents can also schedule their own wake-ups, leave notes for later and work with other agents.

It runs as a Node.js server with Python dependencies or via Docker. The README warns that the agent gets low-level system permissions and asks users not to route it through unofficial relay APIs. The project is licensed CC BY-NC-SA 4.0, and its documentation is primarily in Chinese with English, Japanese and Russian versions.

This write-up is based on the project's README and public repository data. We have not hand-tested the tool. Data as of 2026-10-19.

Features

01One continuous timeline across web, mobile, desktop and group chats
02RiverMemo associative memory with a Rust native core
03Context pre-computation decides what the model should know each turn
04Distributed plugin engine with transparent remote nodes
05Agents can schedule their own wake-ups and leave notes for later
02

Why choose it

+Memories and context surface on their own each turn, without the agent deciding to search.
+One continuous identity and timeline across every client and channel.
+Distributed plugins and remote nodes appear to the AI as local resources.
03

Trade-offs

!CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 forbids commercial use.
!Runs with high system privileges; the README says non-experts should deploy with caution.
!The README focuses on concepts, so concrete setup and configuration details take digging in the docs.
