Question 1

What is Parasite?

Accepted Answer

Parasite is a CLI-first multi-agent coding orchestrator. It breaks development work into parallel streams and runs them through a 4-tier, 16-role agent pipeline — planning, environment setup, implementation, code review, testing, debugging, and integration — from a single command. It is built by Gregory Dugger and is currently in alpha.

Question 2

How is Parasite different from Cursor, Copilot, or Claude Code?

Accepted Answer

Those tools are single-agent assistants that keep the human as the orchestrator. Parasite automates the orchestration itself: it routes work to specialized agent roles, validates edits structurally with tree-sitter across 8 languages, enforces cost budgets, and runs the full delivery lifecycle rather than just completing code. It supports multi-provider LLM routing across OpenRouter, MiniMax, AWS Bedrock, and Azure AI Foundry.

Question 3

What is Scion?

Accepted Answer

Scion is a self-healing code pipeline built on Parasite's multi-agent orchestration engine. It detects test failures and runtime errors, diagnoses root causes through code analysis, generates targeted fixes, validates them against the full test suite, and ships autonomously with human approval gates. It is available as Scion Cloud (fully managed), Scion Self-Hosted, or Scion Custom.

Question 4

What is Agent Memory Hub?

Accepted Answer

Agent Memory Hub is a hub-and-spoke memory manager for AI coding agents. A central hub holds your canonical memory, then compiles and delivers it into each AI harness's native memory files — so Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini, and 10+ tools read the same context on every machine, with no plugin or runtime lookup. It is non-destructive by design: the hub holds the encryption key, previews every change before writing, backs up whatever it replaces, and keeps a reason-coded audit ledger. Built by Gregory Dugger in Go.

Question 5

Who is Gregory Dugger?

Accepted Answer

Gregory Dugger is a full-stack software architect and consulting engineer based in Houston, Texas, with a decade in enterprise software from .NET 3.5 through .NET 10.

Question 6

What consulting services does Gregory Dugger offer?

Accepted Answer

Full-stack web application architecture, WordPress and Django platforms, Flutter mobile development, AWS/Azure cloud infrastructure, data and search systems, API integrations, AI coding harnesses, agentic systems, RAG and LLM integration, and fractional technical leadership.
