A fundamentally different approach — nothing else like it exists
CVM waits forever. Close terminal, take a break, come back tomorrow.
The LLM is the processor, not a tool. Program structure drives execution.
while(tests fail) { fix } — Claude cannot skip or fake results.
Between any CC() call, the user can discuss, redirect, or debug.

After searching across all major AI agent frameworks, orchestration tools, and academic research, no existing system inverts control the way CVM does — making the program the orchestrator and the AI the execution engine (CPU).
Uses yield/checkpoint patterns for long-running workflows. Supports human-in-the-loop via signals.
Missing: AI is not the CPU. The function executes logic; AI is called as a tool. No discipline enforcement.
"Programming, not prompting." Declarative modules that compose LLM calls like neural network layers.
Missing: No pause/resume. No human intervention. Focused on optimization, not interactive execution.
Task-centric AI orchestration. Structured workflows with type-safe outputs and multi-agent support.
Missing: AI still executes autonomously. No "no-escape" enforcement. No infinite patience model.
Pause at nodes, save state, resume later. Human-in-the-loop at graph edges.
Missing: The graph orchestrates AI, not the other way around. No custom interpreter. No plan back-references.
Checkpoint after every tool execution. Hot resume from crash. State persistence.
Missing: Agent drives execution. No program-as-structure paradigm. No discipline enforcement loops.
Long-running workflows with pause/resume. Activity-based task execution with retry logic.
Missing: General workflow engine, not AI-specific. No concept of AI as the processor. No CC() equivalent.
How native model capabilities reshaped the agentic landscape — Feb 2025 to Mar 2026
Agentic coding & automation. Single-agent complex tasks. File I/O, git, CLI workflows. Session continuity & governance. Claude-native projects.
Domain-specific coding agents. Claude Agent SDK inside LangGraph nodes. LangChain Skills boosting Claude Code. Complex workflows with Claude as executor.
Multi-model orchestration. Persistent state & checkpoints. Human-in-the-loop approval flows. Enterprise workflows with branching, retries, cycles.
