**One command routes the work. The repository remembers what happened.**

Citadel is the open-source operating layer for Claude Code and OpenAI Codex. It adds durable project memory, cheap intent routing, verification evidence, cost telemetry, and coordinated agents in isolated git worktrees.

If `CLAUDE.md` and `AGENTS.md` tell the runtime **what** your project is, Citadel tells the runtime **how** to operate on it.
