LayerFS is a filesystem built for AI coding agents. Each agent mounts a complete, writable workspace over shared committed history, does its work, commits what it changed and goes away, so ephemeral workspaces still leave durable results. It is designed for massive parallelism and multi-agent coordination across branches.
Be the first to rate LayerFS. Your feedback helps other users decide.
Each Bash tool call mounts an ephemeral workspace, then commits, so an agent cannot leave a half-finished tree behind.
Agents on different computers commit to one serverless store, with no DB server in the middle.
Every tool call becomes a commit on a branch, so conflicts on the same file are recorded and traceable.
