RuvBot is a next-generation personal AI assistant powered by RuVector's WASM vector operations. It addresses critical security gaps found in Clawdbot while delivering 150x faster performance, self-learning neural architecture, and enterprise-grade multi-tenancy.

Why RuvBot Over Clawdbot?

Clawdbot lacks essential security protections that are mandatory for production AI deployments:

• No prompt injection defense - Clawdbot is vulnerable to adversarial prompts
• No jailbreak detection - Users can bypass system instructions
• No PII protection - Sensitive data leakage risk
• No input sanitization - Control character and unicode attacks possible
• Single-tenant only - No enterprise data isolation

RuvBot solves all of these with a 6-layer security architecture and AIDefence integration.

Intelligent LLM Routing (3-Tier)

Benefits: 75% cost reduction, 352x faster for Tier 1 tasks.

Security Architecture (6 Layers) - Why This Matters

Clawdbot's security model is fundamentally insufficient for production AI:

RuvBot's Defense-in-Depth Architecture:

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Layer 1: Transport (TLS 1.3, HSTS, cert pinning)               │
│ Layer 2: Authentication (JWT RS256, OAuth 2.0, rate limiting)  │
│ Layer 3: Authorization (RBAC, claims, tenant isolation)        │
│ Layer 4: Data Protection (AES-256-GCM, key rotation)           │
│ Layer 5: AIDefence (prompt injection, jailbreak, PII)          │
│ Layer 6: WASM Sandbox (memory isolation, resource limits)      │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

Compliance Ready: GDPR, SOC 2, HIPAA (configurable).

AI Defense (aidefence Integration) - Critical for Production

Every production AI system needs adversarial defense. Clawdbot has none. RuvBot integrates aidefence for military-grade protection.

Threat Detection (<10ms latency)

• Prompt Injection Detection - 50+ injection pattern signatures
• Jailbreak Prevention - DAN, bypass, unlimited mode, roleplay attacks
• PII Protection - Email, phone, SSN, credit cards, API keys, IP addresses
• Unicode Normalization - Homoglyph and encoding attack prevention
• Behavioral Analysis - User baseline deviation detection
• Response Validation - Prevents LLM from leaking injected content
• Audit Logging - Full threat tracking for compliance

Usage

import { createAIDefenceGuard, createAIDefenceMiddleware } from '@ruvector/ruvbot';

// Create guard
const guard = createAIDefenceGuard({
  detectPromptInjection: true,
  detectJailbreak: true,
  detectPII: true,
  blockThreshold: 'medium',
});

// Analyze input
const result = await guard.analyze(userInput);
if (!result.safe) {
  console.log('Threats:', result.threats);
  const safeInput = result.sanitizedInput;
}

// Or use middleware
const middleware = createAIDefenceMiddleware();
const { allowed, sanitizedInput } = await middleware.validateInput(input);

Threat Detection

See ADR-014: AIDefence Integration for details.

Plugin System

RuvBot includes an extensible plugin system inspired by claude-flow's IPFS-based registry.

Features

• Plugin Discovery: Auto-load plugins from ./plugins directory
• Lifecycle Management: Install, enable, disable, unload plugins
• Hot-Reload: Dynamic plugin loading without restart
• Sandboxed Execution: Permission-based access control
• IPFS Registry: Optional decentralized plugin distribution

Usage

import { createPluginManager } from '@ruvector/ruvbot';

// Create and initialize plugin manager
const plugins = createPluginManager({
  pluginsDir: './plugins',
  autoLoad: true,
});
await plugins.initialize();

// List plugins and skills
console.log(plugins.listPlugins());
const skills = plugins.getPluginSkills();

Custom Skills

Create custom skills in the skills/ directory:

// skills/my-skill.ts
import { defineSkill } from '@ruvector/ruvbot';

export default defineSkill({
  name: 'my-skill',
  description: 'Custom skill description',
  inputs: [
    { name: 'query', type: 'string', required: true }
  ],
  async execute(params, context) {
    return {
      success: true,
      data: `Processed: ${params.query}`,
    };
  },
});

Memory System

RuvBot uses HNSW-indexed vector memory for fast semantic search:

import { MemoryManager, createWasmEmbedder } from '@ruvector/ruvbot/learning';

const embedder = createWasmEmbedder({ dimensions: 384 });
const memory = new MemoryManager({
  config: { dimensions: 384, maxVectors: 100000, indexType: 'hnsw' },
  embedder,
});

// Store a memory
await memory.store('Important information', {
  source: 'user',
  tags: ['important'],
  importance: 0.9,
});

// Search memories
const results = await memory.search('find important info', {
  topK: 5,
  threshold: 0.7,
});

Deployment

RuvBot supports multiple deployment options from local development to enterprise cloud.

Webhook Configuration

Inbound Webhooks

RuvBot exposes webhook endpoints for receiving messages from external services.

Webhook Security

# Set webhook authentication
export WEBHOOK_SECRET="your-shared-secret"
export WEBHOOK_AUTH_TOKEN="bearer-token-for-inbound"

Inbound requests are validated using:

• X-Webhook-Secret header for HMAC signature verification
• Authorization header with Bearer token
• Request body signature validation

Outbound Webhooks

Configure RuvBot to send responses and events to your services:

{
  "webhooks": {
    "outbound": {
      "url": "https://your-service.com/ruvbot-callback",
      "secret": "shared-secret-for-signing",
      "events": ["message", "agent.spawn", "session.create", "error"],
      "retries": 3,
      "timeout": 30000,
      "headers": {
        "X-Custom-Header": "value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Webhook Event Types

Example: Custom Integration

// Your webhook receiver
app.post('/ruvbot-callback', (req, res) => {
  // Verify signature
  const signature = req.headers['x-webhook-signature'];
  const isValid = verifyHmac(req.body, signature, WEBHOOK_SECRET);

  if (!isValid) {
    return res.status(401).send('Invalid signature');
  }

  const { event, data } = req.body;

  switch (event) {
    case 'message.response':
      // Forward to your chat system
      sendToChat(data.sessionId, data.content);
      break;
    case 'security.threat':
      // Alert security team
      alertSecurity(data);
      break;
  }

  res.status(200).send('OK');
});

TypeScript Support

RuvBot is written in TypeScript and provides full type definitions:

import type {
  RuvBot,
  RuvBotOptions,
  Agent,
  AgentConfig,
  Session,
  Message,
  BotConfig,
} from '@ruvector/ruvbot';

// Full IntelliSense support
const bot = createRuvBot({
  config: {
    name: 'MyBot',
    llm: { provider: 'anthropic', apiKey: '...' },
  },
});

Events & Hooks

RuvBot emits events for lifecycle and message handling:

import { createRuvBot } from '@ruvector/ruvbot';

const bot = createRuvBot();

// Lifecycle events
bot.on('ready', () => console.log('Bot is ready'));
bot.on('shutdown', () => console.log('Bot shutting down'));
bot.on('error', (error) => console.error('Error:', error));

// Agent events
bot.on('agent:spawn', (agent) => console.log('Agent spawned:', agent.id));
bot.on('agent:stop', (agentId) => console.log('Agent stopped:', agentId));

// Session events
bot.on('session:create', (session) => console.log('Session created:', session.id));
bot.on('session:end', (sessionId) => console.log('Session ended:', sessionId));

// Message events
bot.on('message', (message, session) => {
  console.log(`[${message.role}]: ${message.content}`);
});

Streaming Responses

RuvBot supports streaming for real-time responses:

import { createRuvBot } from '@ruvector/ruvbot';

const bot = createRuvBot({
  config: {
    llm: {
      provider: 'anthropic',
      apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY,
      streaming: true,  // Enable streaming
    },
  },
});

// Streaming is handled automatically in chat responses
const response = await bot.chat(sessionId, 'Tell me a story');

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

LLM not configured

[RuvBot] LLM not configured. Received: "..."

Solution: Set OPENROUTER_API_KEY or ANTHROPIC_API_KEY environment variable.

Agent not found

Error: Agent with ID xxx not found

Solution: Create an agent first with bot.spawnAgent() or use default-agent.

Session expired

Error: Session with ID xxx not found

Solution: Sessions expire after 1 hour by default. Create a new session.

Memory search returns empty

No results found

Solution: Ensure you've stored memories first and the HNSW index is initialized.
