The ACU is the agent org Meet Patel runs his companies on. Every agent shares one source of truth, escalates irreversible decisions to a human, and runs the operating cadence without being asked. Built as a plugin marketplace for Claude Code.

Scale

The gate on every agent

"If it has no system of record, no cadence, and no definition of done, it is a chatbot. Do not build it." Every agent declares system_of_record, cadence and definition_of_done in its frontmatter. The build script rejects the build if any agent is missing any of the three. Enforcement is mechanical.
