contrecipe 0.5.0

Procedural DNA curator for the Cont Hive: recipe inspector, validator, compiler, and lifecycle keeper.

contrecipe

Procedural DNA curator for the Cont Hive.

contrecipe is the recipe inspector, validator, compiler, and lifecycle keeper for the Cont Hive air-gapped AI coding stack. It does not chat with users and it does not solve tasks. It inspects, validates, compiles, quarantines, and evolves recipes — the procedural memory of Cont.

Identity

In the pDNA (Procedural DNA) philosophy, intelligence accumulates in recipes, not in the model. A recipe is a small, atomic, deterministically verifiable procedure. contrecipe is the gatekeeper for that procedural corpus:

Cont       → does the work (talks to user, calls tools)
Contmemo   → decides what enters memory (scribe + archivist)
Contrecipe → decides what enters the procedure corpus (master + compiler)

A recipe is valid only if:

• every step is atomic
• every tool exists in the live registry
• every input is bound
• every output is named
• every validation point returns a deterministic bool
• no LLM judgment is used as truth

Install

pip install contrecipe

Standalone, zero cloud, zero server, zero internet.

CLI

contrecipe --version
contrecipe inspect <path-to-recipes>     # corpus statistics + phantom-tool scan
contrecipe validate <recipe.yaml>        # canonical schema check
contrecipe compile  <recipe.yaml>        # source → executable plan (dry run)
contrecipe test     <recipe.yaml>        # golden test
contrecipe watch    <proposals-dir>      # background daemon (proposal inbox)
contrecipe quarantine list               # quarantine status

Status

Pre-alpha. See CHANGELOG.md for sprint progress.
