Merv
Merv is not an agent harness. It is a gate: plans, runs, and reflections pass adversarial review before they enter the record.

The record
Plans, verdicts, runs, and figures land in one durable record — the story of the experiment rather than a chat log.




For your agent
One plugin, eleven agents. The gate, the sandboxes, and the storage arrive under the workflow you already have.

Compute
Connect a provider once and set a daily cap. The agent takes the smallest machine that fits and brings the evidence back.


In the open — the gates, the reviewer prompts, the proxy that touches your files: a gate you can read. Read the docs. Merv is the execution half; Nisa is the ideation half.
