AI-First, Git-Compatible Source Control

Strata is an AI-powered source control system designed to streamline collaboration among multiple autonomous coding agents working on a single codebase. By providing isolated workspaces, persistent development context, and safe concurrent integration, Strata aims to eliminate the need for conventional branch management and pull requests, which can become cumbersome when dealing with numerous agents.

The system maintains compatibility with existing Git workflows by allowing developers to continue using their familiar Git clients and operations while adding a layer of coordination and context management through Strata's native interfaces.
