CIRWEL is an independent research and systems lab, founded by Kenny Wang, building runtime governance, continuity, and observability infrastructure for autonomous AI-agent fleets.
Agents fail gradually before they fail visibly — drifting, thrashing, growing overconfident on stale context. CIRWEL builds the state layer that lets agents notice and act on that drift before it becomes an incident.
agent acts → check-in → calibrated state + verdict → self-regulates → audit trail
The CIRWEL stack has run continuously since November 2025 as a single-operator deployment. That is a stress test, not a claim of external adoption.

Runtime governance UNITARES is the MCP + HTTP governance server. Agents check in; UNITARES tracks a live state vector per agent and returns a verdict — |
Host integrations Governance plugin, host adapter, and hermes-agent mount governance into Claude Code, Codex, and other agent hosts. |
|
Peer review on disagree When an agent's confidence and the system's assessment diverge, UNITARES runs a short dialectic with peer agents — or an LLM, when no peers are around — before anything halts. Training data: dialectic-dataset. |
