The first public release of Grover: a Python toolkit that gives AI agents safe, versioned file operations over codebases and documents.

Versioned Filesystem

  • Two storage backends: LocalFileSystem (disk + SQLite) for local dev, DatabaseFileSystem (pure SQL) for web apps and shared knowledge bases
  • Mount-based VFS routes operations to the right backend by path prefix — mount multiple backends side by side
  • Automatic versioning with diff-based storage (snapshots + forward diffs) and SHA-256 integrity checks
  • Soft-delete trash with restore, plus permanent delete
  • File operations: read, write, edit, delete, move, copy, mkdir, list_dir, exists
  • Search operations: glob (pattern matching), grep (regex search with context lines), tree (directory listing with depth limits)
  • Capability protocols: backends declare what they support (SupportsVersions, SupportsTrash, SupportsReconcile) — checked at runtime
  • Dialect-aware SQL: works with SQLite, PostgreSQL, and MSSQL
  • Reconciliation: sync disk state with database for LocalFileSystem

API

  • Sync (Grover) and async (GroverAsync) facades
  • Everything-is-a-file identity model
  • Event-driven architecture via EventBus
  • Result types for all operations (no raw exceptions in the public API)

Infrastructure

  • Python 3.12+ (tested on 3.12, 3.13, 3.14)
  • CI with GitHub Actions (lint, format, type check, tests)
  • Documentation site via MkDocs Material

Coming Soon

  • Knowledge graph — dependency and impact analysis powered by rustworkx with automatic code analyzers (Python, JS/TS, Go)
  • Semantic search — HNSW vector index with pluggable embedding providers
  • MCP server — expose Grover as a Model Context Protocol server for Claude Code, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible agents
  • CLIgrover init, grover status, grover search, grover rollback
