Quick Start
Installation
npx agentic-jujutsuBasic Usage
const { JjWrapper } = require('agentic-jujutsu');
const jj = new JjWrapper();
// Basic operations
await jj.status();
await jj.newCommit('Add feature');
await jj.log(10);
// Self-learning trajectory
const id = jj.startTrajectory('Implement authentication');
await jj.branchCreate('feature$auth');
await jj.newCommit('Add auth');
jj.addToTrajectory();
jj.finalizeTrajectory(0.9, 'Clean implementation');
// Get AI suggestions
const suggestion = JSON.parse(jj.getSuggestion('Add logout feature'));
console.log(`Confidence: ${suggestion.confidence}`);Core Capabilities
1. Self-Learning with ReasoningBank
Track operations, learn patterns, and get intelligent suggestions:
// Start learning trajectory
const trajectoryId = jj.startTrajectory('Deploy to production');
// Perform operations (automatically tracked)
await jj.execute(['git', 'push', 'origin', 'main']);
await jj.branchCreate('release$v1.0');
await jj.newCommit('Release v1.0');
// Record operations to trajectory
jj.addToTrajectory();
// Finalize with success score (0.0-1.0) and critique
jj.finalizeTrajectory(0.95, 'Deployment successful, no issues');
// Later: Get AI-powered suggestions for similar tasks
const suggestion = JSON.parse(jj.getSuggestion('Deploy to staging'));
console.log('AI Recommendation:', suggestion.reasoning);
console.log('Confidence:', (suggestion.confidence * 100).toFixed(1) + '%');
console.log('Expected Success:', (suggestion.expectedSuccessRate * 100).toFixed(1) + '%');Validation (v2.3.1):
- ✅ Tasks must be non-empty (max 10KB)
- ✅ Success scores must be 0.0-1.0
- ✅ Must have operations before finalizing
- ✅ Contexts cannot be empty
2. Pattern Discovery
Automatically identify successful operation sequences:
// Get discovered patterns
const patterns = JSON.parse(jj.getPatterns());
patterns.forEach(pattern => {
console.log(`Pattern: ${pattern.name}`);
console.log(` Success rate: ${(pattern.successRate * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
console.log(` Used ${pattern.observationCount} times`);
console.log(` Operations: ${pattern.operationSequence.join(' → ')}`);
console.log(` Confidence: ${(pattern.confidence * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
});3. Learning Statistics
Track improvement over time:
const stats = JSON.parse(jj.getLearningStats());
console.log('Learning Progress:');
console.log(` Total trajectories: ${stats.totalTrajectories}`);
console.log(` Patterns discovered: ${stats.totalPatterns}`);
console.log(` Average success: ${(stats.avgSuccessRate * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
console.log(` Improvement rate: ${(stats.improvementRate * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
console.log(` Prediction accuracy: ${(stats.predictionAccuracy * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);4. Multi-Agent Coordination
Multiple agents work concurrently without conflicts:
// Agent 1: Developer
const dev = new JjWrapper();
dev.startTrajectory('Implement feature');
await dev.newCommit('Add feature X');
dev.addToTrajectory();
dev.finalizeTrajectory(0.85);
// Agent 2: Reviewer (learns from Agent 1)
const reviewer = new JjWrapper();
const suggestion = JSON.parse(reviewer.getSuggestion('Review feature X'));
if (suggestion.confidence > 0.7) {
console.log('High confidence approach:', suggestion.reasoning);
}
// Agent 3: Tester (benefits from both)
const tester = new JjWrapper();
const similar = JSON.parse(tester.queryTrajectories('test feature', 5));
console.log(`Found ${similar.length} similar test approaches`);5. Quantum-Resistant Security (v2.3.0+)
Fast integrity verification with quantum-resistant cryptography:
const { generateQuantumFingerprint, verifyQuantumFingerprint } = require('agentic-jujutsu');
// Generate SHA3-512 fingerprint (NIST FIPS 202)
const data = Buffer.from('commit-data');
const fingerprint = generateQuantumFingerprint(data);
console.log('Fingerprint:', fingerprint.toString('hex'));
// Verify integrity (<1ms)
const isValid = verifyQuantumFingerprint(data, fingerprint);
console.log('Valid:', isValid);
// HQC-128 encryption for trajectories
const crypto = require('crypto');
const key = crypto.randomBytes(32).toString('base64');
jj.enableEncryption(key);6. Operation Tracking with AgentDB
Automatic tracking of all operations:
// Operations are tracked automatically
await jj.status();
await jj.newCommit('Fix bug');
await jj.rebase('main');
// Get operation statistics
const stats = JSON.parse(jj.getStats());
console.log(`Total operations: ${stats.total_operations}`);
console.log(`Success rate: ${(stats.success_rate * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
console.log(`Avg duration: ${stats.avg_duration_ms.toFixed(2)}ms`);
// Query recent operations
const ops = jj.getOperations(10);
ops.forEach(op => {
console.log(`${op.operationType}: ${op.command}`);
console.log(` Duration: ${op.durationMs}ms, Success: ${op.success}`);
});
// Get user operations (excludes snapshots)
const userOps = jj.getUserOperations(20);Advanced Use Cases
Use Case 1: Adaptive Workflow Optimization
Learn and improve deployment workflows:
async function adaptiveDeployment(jj, environment) {
// Get AI suggestion based on past deployments
const suggestion = JSON.parse(jj.getSuggestion(`Deploy to ${environment}`));
console.log(`Deploying with ${(suggestion.confidence * 100).toFixed(0)}% confidence`);
console.log(`Expected duration: ${suggestion.estimatedDurationMs}ms`);
// Start tracking
jj.startTrajectory(`Deploy to ${environment}`);
// Execute recommended operations
for (const op of suggestion.recommendedOperations) {
console.log(`Executing: ${op}`);
await executeOperation(op);
}
jj.addToTrajectory();
// Record outcome
const success = await verifyDeployment();
jj.finalizeTrajectory(
success ? 0.95 : 0.5,
success ? 'Deployment successful' : 'Issues detected'
);
}Use Case 2: Multi-Agent Code Review
Coordinate review across multiple agents:
async function coordinatedReview(agents) {
const reviews = await Promise.all(agents.map(async (agent) => {
const jj = new JjWrapper();
// Start review trajectory
jj.startTrajectory(`Review by ${agent.name}`);
// Get AI suggestion for review approach
const suggestion = JSON.parse(jj.getSuggestion('Code review'));
// Perform review
const diff = await jj.diff('@', '@-');
const issues = await agent.analyze(diff);
jj.addToTrajectory();
jj.finalizeTrajectory(
issues.length === 0 ? 0.9 : 0.6,
`Found ${issues.length} issues`
);
return { agent: agent.name, issues, suggestion };
}));
// Aggregate learning from all agents
return reviews;
}Use Case 3: Error Pattern Detection
Learn from failures to prevent future issues:
async function smartMerge(jj, branch) {
// Query similar merge attempts
const similar = JSON.parse(jj.queryTrajectories(`merge ${branch}`, 10));
// Analyze past failures
const failures = similar.filter(t => t.successScore < 0.5);
if (failures.length > 0) {
console.log('⚠️ Similar merges failed in the past:');
failures.forEach(f => {
if (f.critique) {
console.log(` - ${f.critique}`);
}
});
}
// Get AI recommendation
const suggestion = JSON.parse(jj.getSuggestion(`merge ${branch}`));
if (suggestion.confidence < 0.7) {
console.log('⚠️ Low confidence. Recommended steps:');
suggestion.recommendedOperations.forEach(op => console.log(` - ${op}`));
}
// Execute merge with tracking
jj.startTrajectory(`Merge ${branch}`);
try {
await jj.execute(['merge', branch]);
jj.addToTrajectory();
jj.finalizeTrajectory(0.9, 'Merge successful');
} catch (err) {
jj.addToTrajectory();
jj.finalizeTrajectory(0.3, `Merge failed: ${err.message}`);
throw err;
}
}Use Case 4: Continuous Learning Loop
Implement a self-improving agent:
class SelfImprovingAgent {
constructor() {
this.jj = new JjWrapper();
}
async performTask(taskDescription) {
// Get AI suggestion
const suggestion = JSON.parse(this.jj.getSuggestion(taskDescription));
console.log(`Task: ${taskDescription}`);
console.log(`AI Confidence: ${(suggestion.confidence * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
console.log(`Expected Success: ${(suggestion.expectedSuccessRate * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
// Start trajectory
this.jj.startTrajectory(taskDescription);
// Execute with recommended approach
const startTime = Date.now();
let success = false;
try {
for (const op of suggestion.recommendedOperations) {
await this.execute(op);
}
success = true;
} catch (err) {
console.error('Task failed:', err.message);
}
const duration = Date.now() - startTime;
// Record learning
this.jj.addToTrajectory();
this.jj.finalizeTrajectory(
success ? 0.9 : 0.4,
success
? `Completed in ${duration}ms using ${suggestion.recommendedOperations.length} operations`
: `Failed after ${duration}ms`
);
// Check improvement
const stats = JSON.parse(this.jj.getLearningStats());
console.log(`Improvement rate: ${(stats.improvementRate * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
return success;
}
async execute(operation) {
// Execute operation logic
}
}
// Usage
const agent = new SelfImprovingAgent();
// Agent improves over time
for (let i = 1; i <= 10; i++) {
console.log(`\n--- Attempt ${i} ---`);
await agent.performTask('Deploy application');

Best Practices
1. Trajectory Management
// ✅ Good: Meaningful task descriptions
jj.startTrajectory('Implement user authentication with JWT');
// ❌ Bad: Vague descriptions
jj.startTrajectory('fix stuff');
// ✅ Good: Honest success scores
jj.finalizeTrajectory(0.7, 'Works but needs refactoring');
// ❌ Bad: Always 1.0
jj.finalizeTrajectory(1.0, 'Perfect!'); // Prevents learning2. Pattern Recognition
// ✅ Good: Let patterns emerge naturally
for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
jj.startTrajectory('Deploy feature');
await deploy();
jj.addToTrajectory();
jj.finalizeTrajectory(wasSuccessful ? 0.9 : 0.5);
}
// ❌ Bad: Not recording outcomes
await deploy(); // No learning3. Multi-Agent Coordination
// ✅ Good: Concurrent operations
const agents = ['agent1', 'agent2', 'agent3'];
await Promise.all(agents.map(async (agent) => {
const jj = new JjWrapper();
// Each agent works independently
await jj.newCommit(`Changes by ${agent}`);
}));
// ❌ Bad: Sequential with locks
for (const agent of agents) {
await agent.waitForLock(); // Not needed!
await agent.commit();
}4. Error Handling
// ✅ Good: Record failures with details
try {
await jj.execute(['complex-operation']);
jj.finalizeTrajectory(0.9);
} catch (err) {
jj.finalizeTrajectory(0.3, `Failed: ${err.message}. Root cause: ...`);
}
// ❌ Bad: Silent failures
try {
await jj.execute(['operation']);
} catch (err) {
// No learning from failure
}Validation Rules (v2.3.1+)
Task Description
- ✅ Cannot be empty or whitespace-only
- ✅ Maximum length: 10,000 bytes
- ✅ Automatically trimmed
Success Score
- ✅ Must be finite (not NaN or Infinity)
- ✅ Must be between 0.0 and 1.0 (inclusive)
Operations
- ✅ Must have at least one operation before finalizing
Context
- ✅ Cannot be empty
- ✅ Keys cannot be empty or whitespace-only
- ✅ Keys max 1,000 bytes, values max 10,000 bytes
Troubleshooting
Issue: Low Confidence Suggestions
const suggestion = JSON.parse(jj.getSuggestion('new task'));
if (suggestion.confidence < 0.5) {
// Not enough data - check learning stats
const stats = JSON.parse(jj.getLearningStats());
console.log(`Need more data. Current trajectories: ${stats.totalTrajectories}`);
// Recommend: Record 5-10 trajectories first
}Issue: Validation Errors
try {
jj.startTrajectory(''); // Empty task
} catch (err) {
if (err.message.includes('Validation error')) {
console.log('Invalid input:', err.message);
// Use non-empty, meaningful task description
}
}
try {
jj.finalizeTrajectory(1.5); // Score > 1.0
} catch (err) {
// Use score between 0.0 and 1.0
jj.finalizeTrajectory(Math.max(0, Math.min(1, score)));
}Issue: No Patterns Discovered
const patterns = JSON.parse(jj.getPatterns());
if (patterns.length === 0) {
// Need more trajectories with >70% success
// Record at least 3-5 successful trajectories
}Examples
Example 1: Simple Learning Workflow
const { JjWrapper } = require('agentic-jujutsu');
async function learnFromWork() {
const jj = new JjWrapper();
// Start tracking
jj.startTrajectory('Add user profile feature');
// Do work
await jj.branchCreate('feature$user-profile');
await jj.newCommit('Add user profile model');
await jj.newCommit('Add profile API endpoints');
await jj.newCommit('Add profile UI');
// Record operations
jj.addToTrajectory();
// Finalize with result
jj.finalizeTrajectory(0.85, 'Feature complete, minor styling issues remain');
// Next time, get suggestions
const suggestion = JSON.parse(jj.getSuggestion('Add settings page'));
console.log('AI suggests:', suggestion.reasoning);
}Example 2: Multi-Agent Swarm
async function agentSwarm(taskList) {
const agents = taskList.map((task, i) => ({
name: `agent-${i}`,
jj: new JjWrapper(),
task
}));
// All agents work concurrently (no conflicts!)
const results = await Promise.all(agents.map(async (agent) => {
agent.jj.startTrajectory(agent.task);
// Get AI suggestion
const suggestion = JSON.parse(agent.jj.getSuggestion(agent.task));
// Execute task
const success = await executeTask(agent, suggestion);
agent.jj.addToTrajectory();
agent.jj.finalizeTrajectory(success ? 0.9 : 0.5);
return { agent: agent.name, success };
}));
console.log('Results:', results);
