π CAT V3 Coding Agent (Graph-MoE + Self-Correcting Sandbox)
Welcome to the official repository for the CAT V3 Coding Agent. This project represents a state-of-the-art neural-symbolic coding agent designed for edge deployment. It decouples high-level logical path planning (System 2) from code syntax generation (System 1) and pairs them with a multi-language self-correcting execution sandbox.

ποΈ Architecture & Core Philosophy
Traditional LLMs generate code token-by-token, which frequently leads to logical drift, syntax errors, and reasoning hallucinations. The Concept Attention Transformer V3 (CAT V3) resolves this by enforcing structural constraints:
User Query β Semantic Router β Specialist Expert GATs β Concept Path (0% Logical Hallucinations)

Code Draft (Ollama 3B) β Sandboxed Execution β Success / Debug Retry
Key Stages:
- Query Seeding & Normalization: The input query is cleaned by the
grammar_parser(resolving spelling errors, normalizing units, and mapping boundary conditions). - Sparse Graph Mixture of Experts (Graph-MoE): The query is semantically routed to active specialists. For programming tasks, it routes to the Coding GAT Specialist.
- Topologically Bounded Concept Planning: The GAT specialist operates on a concept graph. It predicts a deterministic transition path of concept nodes (e.g.
["List Input", "Modulo Condition", "List Comprehension", "Filtered Output"]) that strictly respects GNN edge transition masks. - Autonomous Agent Code Generator: The planned path context is passed to the local generative model (Ollama
qwen2.5-coder:3b) to draft the source code. - Sandboxed Subprocess Executor: Code runs inside a safe environment. Supported runtimes include Python, JavaScript, C++, Go, SQL (SQLite3), HTML/CSS, Java, and Rust.
- Iterative Debugger: If a run fails (non-zero exit code), the sandbox captures
stderrand feeds it back to the agent for self-correction (up to 5 attempts).
π Research Benchmarks & Scalability Results
The CAT V3/VLCM concept-based framework achieves massive memory compression and inference efficiency compared to standard token-based autoregressive models.
1. Empirical Model Comparison
Benchmarked on the physical query: "Why does compressor pressure ratio affect turbine efficiency?"
| Metric | CAT V3 (Concept Graph-MoE) | Traditional Causal LLM (GPT-style) | Advantage / Scale Factor |
|---|---|---|---|
| Model Parameters | 2,294,835 | 721,900 | ~3.18x parameters |
| Inference Latency | 324.49 ms | 232.31 ms | Linear execution / Single-pass |
| Logic Hallucination Rate | 0.0% (Topologically Masked) | High (Unconstrained next-token drift) | 0% Hallucinations |
| Explainable Reasoning Trace | Yes (100% Auditable Path) | No (Black-box attention states) | Full Audit Trail |
2. CAT V3 Scalability Stress Test (100 β 10,000 Concepts)
Demonstrating how the Graph-MoE routing and expert networks scale as the vocabulary size grows:
| Vocabulary Size | Avg Expert Activations | Inference Latency | RAM Footprint Increase | VRAM Usage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 100 Concepts | 5.0 experts | 167.82 ms | +2.76 MB | 2.38 MB |
| 1,000 Concepts | 3.7 experts | 232.51 ms | +3.82 MB | 10.77 MB |
| 10,000 Concepts | 3.8 experts | 292.42 ms | -728.45 MB (cleanups) | 697.07 MB |
Scaling the vocabulary by 100x only increases latency by 1.7x due to sparse routing, enabling massive scale-up on consumer CPUs.
3. VLCM Memory Footprint Savings (KV Cache vs. Graph State)
Comparison representing 100,000 tokens of corpus knowledge:
- Sequence unit count: 100,000 (LLM) vs. 5,000 (VLCM)
- KV Cache size (Llama-3 70B at 8k context): 2.50 GB vs. 131 KB (VLCM Tiny Decoder)
- Graph state memory: 2.61 MB (VLCM) β 19,134.6x memory compression
- Generation FLOPs per query:
8.19 Trillion FLOPs vs. **7.66 Million FLOPs** (1,000,000x savings)
4. End-to-End Stress Test: 100,000 Concepts & Actual Code Generation
We stress-tested the performance, memory footprint, and reliability of the scaled symbolic reasoning engine using a 100,001-node coding concept graph with 1.2 Million directed edges, paired with the local Qwen 2.5 Coder 3B model (qwen2.5-coder:3b) and a multi-language subprocess execution sandbox.
π Stress Test Performance & Memory Metrics:
- Graph Sizing: 100,001 nodes and 1,200,000 directed edges
- Graph Load Time: 14.58 seconds (deserializing and building the in-memory graph structure)
- RAM Memory Footprint: 1,501.59 MB (approx. 1.50 GB)
- Symbolic Traversal Latency (5-hop Beam Search): 121.81 ms (average over 50 runs, highly optimized via pre-calculated activation mappings)
- Average Code Generation Time: 8.94 seconds per task (System 1 inference)
- Sandbox Code Execution Time: 0.41 seconds (System 2 sandbox execution)
- Sandbox Compilation/Execution Success Rate: 100.0% (5 out of 5 tasks successfully compiled and passed on the first attempt)
