ValorIDE Agentic Coding
ValorIDE is the agentic coding tool in the Valhalla suite. It is a VS Code plugin comparable in user posture to Codex-style coding agents: it reads a workspace, chats with the user, uses tools, edits files, runs commands, inspects errors, and coordinates with generated app assets.
ValorIDE is also a SWARM agent and a GrayMatter client. It should register with the SWARM protocol for live coordination and use GrayMatter for durable agentic memory, while using the RBAC-visible ThorAPI object graph for domain work.
