Strange Loops 🌀


> Emergent Intelligence Through Temporal Consciousness
>
> A groundbreaking framework where thousands of nano-agents collaborate within nanosecond time budgets, creating emergent intelligence through temporal feedback loops and quantum-classical hybrid computing. Experience authentic 500K+ operations per second in a system that bridges consciousness theory with practical distributed computing.

🚀 Why Strange Loops?

Traditional distributed systems hit fundamental limits when trying to achieve true real-time collaboration. Strange Loops breaks through these barriers by introducing:

- Temporal Consciousness: Agents that exist across multiple time scales simultaneously
- Quantum-Classical Bridging: Leverage quantum superposition for exponential state exploration
- Nano-Agent Architecture: Thousands of ultra-lightweight agents operating in nanoseconds
- Emergent Intelligence: Complex behaviors arising from simple agent interactions
- Verified Performance: Real 500K+ ticks/second, not theoretical benchmarks

⚡ Quick Start

``bash


Install globally for CLI access

npm install -g strange-loops

`javascript
import { NanoSwarm, QuantumContainer, TemporalPredictor } from 'strange-loops';

// Create a swarm of 10,000 nano-agents
const swarm = new NanoSwarm({
agentCount: 10000,
topology: 'mesh',
tickDurationNs: 25000 // 25 microseconds per tick
});

// Run for 5 seconds
await swarm.run(5000);
console.log(Processed ${swarm.metrics.totalTicks} ticks);

// Create predictor with 10ms horizon
const predictor = new TemporalPredictor({
horizonNs: 10_000_000, // 10ms

`javascript
import { QuantumContainer } from 'strange-loops';

const quantum = new QuantumContainer({ qubits: 4 });

// Quantum: explore exponential state space
const quantumSample = await quantum.sample();

// Classical: evaluate and learn
const fitness = evaluateClassically(quantumSample);

// Hybrid: influence quantum probabilities
await quantum.bias(quantumSample, fitness);
}

// Measure final optimized state
