RUUT BRAIN — the orchestration layer
RUUT BRAIN is the orchestration layer of the RUUT system. It interprets signals from VISION and SENSE against your operating rules, plans work as explicit, resumable graphs, routes reasoning across models, and hands every consequential decision to FORGE before agents act.

What it does
What RUUT BRAIN does
Plans work as explicit graphs
Every task becomes a stateful graph of steps — planned, checkpointed and resumable — so long-running work survives restarts and every branch can be inspected.
Routes reasoning across models
BRAIN chooses a model per step: an open-weight model on your hardware for routine work, a larger model where policy allows. You are never locked to one provider.
Coordinates every layer
It turns VISION and SENSE observations into context, calls governed tools, consults memory, and passes consequential decisions to FORGE before any agent acts.
How it connects
Where it sits in the loop
BRAIN is the Reason stage of the RUUT Agent Loop. It receives signals from VISION and SENSE (Perceive), sends proposed actions to FORGE (Verify), and directs agents such as FOREMAN, FLOW and VAULT (Act). It runs on EDGEBOX or on infrastructure you already operate.

Deployment
How it is deployed
BRAIN is designed to run on-premise on RUUT EDGEBOX, in your private cloud, or as a hybrid where sensitive steps stay local. Model endpoints, tools and approval rules are configured per deployment.
Typical uses
- Interpreting plant signals against safety rules before alerting a supervisor
- Running a multi-step back-office workflow that pauses for human approval
- Answering operational questions from your own documents with retrieval
FAQ
Questions about RUUT BRAIN
Is RUUT BRAIN a large language model?
No. RUUT BRAIN is an orchestration layer, not a model. It decides which model, tool or agent handles each step, keeps state across steps, and routes consequential decisions to FORGE. The models it uses can be open-weight models you host or providers you approve.
Can RUUT BRAIN work with our existing systems?
Yes. Existing systems are connected to BRAIN as governed tools over the Model Context Protocol, each with an explicit allow-list. That means BRAIN can read from and act on the systems you already run, without replacing them, and only within the permissions you set.
What happens if a step fails midway?
Because work runs as a checkpointed graph, a failed or interrupted step can be retried or resumed from the last checkpoint instead of starting over. Every step, retry and approval is recorded in the trace, so the path to any outcome can be reviewed.
