We've moved to GitLab

All Rotifer Protocol repositories have migrated from GitHub to GitLab. Here's what changed, what didn't, and what you need to do.

Why GitLab?

As a solo developer building infrastructure for AI agent evolution, platform resilience matters. GitLab gives us:

Self-hosting option — if needed in the future, we can migrate to our own GitLab instance with zero friction
Integrated CI/CD — no third-party GitHub Actions dependency, everything runs on GitLab Runners
Better alignment — GitLab's open-core model aligns with our Apache 2.0 + Safety Clause licensing
