Coregit is a serverless Git API built for AI agent infrastructure, offering atomic multi-file commits, semantic code search, and Git hosting through a REST API that runs on Cloudflare Workers.1 The company launched on April 10, 20262 and open-sourced the codebase under AGPL-3.0 four days later.9 Coregit is part of the Founders Inc. Canopy accelerator batch.8

Founding

Alemzhan Jakipov, 18 years old and based in Semey, Kazakhstan, co-founded Coregit with a developer known publicly as "auraml." The founding blog post describes the team as "two developers from Kazakhstan."2 Jakipov previously operated under the entity name Strayl AI; the Coregit blog footer reads "© 2026 Coregit, Inc."2

The founding blog post identifies GitHub's API rate limits as the impetus for building a new Git hosting product.2 GitHub's API allows 500 write operations per hour, and committing 10 files requires 13 sequential API calls — capping any AI agent at 38 ten-file commits per hour.5

Architecture

Coregit reimplemented Git's entire object model (blobs, trees, commits, tags, packfiles, and refs) from scratch in TypeScript to run on Cloudflare Workers.7 Cloudflare Workers are V8 isolates with no filesystem access, no native bindings, and no subprocess calls, making it impossible to wrap the standard git binary or libgit2.2

The storage stack uses four Cloudflare services and two external databases. Cloudflare R2 stores git objects in a content-addressed layout mirroring Git's on-disk format, with zero egress fees. Cloudflare KV caches trees, auth tokens, metadata, and commit lists at 5–15ms latency. Cloudflare Durable Objects handle per-repo hot state and rate limiting at approximately 2ms. Neon PostgreSQL, connected via Cloudflare Hyperdrive, stores repository metadata, the code graph, and usage data.7 Pinecone provides the vector store for semantic search, using Voyage AI's voyage-code-3 model at 1,024 dimensions and rerank-2.5 for result reranking.7

The commit endpoint accepts 1 to 1,000 file changes in a single POST request. It resolves the branch ref, flattens the current tree to an in-memory map keyed by file path, applies all changes, builds new tree objects bottom-up with parallel subtree construction, creates the commit, and updates the ref atomically via compare-and-swap.2 An "edit" action supports surgical line-range replacement or old/new string substitution so agents do not retransmit entire files.7

A six-layer cache hierarchy minimizes read latency: in-memory Map (0ms, 32MB cap), Durable Object (approximately 2ms), KV (5–15ms), Edge Cache API (under 5ms for immutable SHA objects with a 1-year TTL), Hyperdrive (0–5ms), and R2 (50–200ms).7 Commit endpoints return a 201 response with the new SHA in approximately 2ms after a Durable Object acknowledgment; the R2 durability write fires in parallel and completes 200–500ms later.2 The web framework is Hono v4.7, handling 40+ API routes across Git Smart HTTP and REST endpoints.7

Benchmarks

Benchmarks run in April 2026 between Kazakhstan and the US-East region show a direct tradeoff: GitHub wins on single-file operations and Coregit wins as file count grows.5 Committing a single file takes 1,195ms on Coregit versus 610ms on GitHub. Committing 100 files takes 19,769ms on Coregit versus 72,064ms on GitHub — a 3.6x speed advantage — using one API call versus GitHub's 105 sequential calls.5

The write throughput gap is larger than the latency gap. GitHub's effective write ceiling for a 10-file commit is 38 commits per hour (500 write ops ÷ 13 calls per commit). Coregit's limit is 15,000 requests per hour per API key, and each commit of any size uses one request, giving a ceiling of 15,000 commits per hour — 394 times GitHub's limit.5 GitHub also beats Coregit on branch creation (832ms vs. 1,562ms) and branch listing (420ms vs. 758ms), because GitHub's servers colocate operations that Coregit distributes across Workers.5 The benchmark documentation presents these tradeoffs explicitly.5

The ROI documentation calculates that a team doing 5,000 ten-file commits per day would wait 11.7 compute hours on GitHub versus 5.8 hours on Coregit, saving approximately $266 per month at $1.50/hr compute cost.4 Cloudflare R2's zero egress pricing means a team mirroring 3TB per month would pay approximately $270 in AWS S3 egress fees and $0 on Coregit.4

LLM Wiki

On April 11, 2026, one day after the main launch, Coregit shipped LLM Wiki, a Git-backed knowledge base system for AI agents.3 Each wiki is a Git repository with a raw/ directory for immutable source documents, a wiki/ directory for LLM-generated pages with YAML frontmatter including related, sources, and confidence fields, and an auto-generated [[llms-txt|llms.txt]] file — a format for machine-readable site content.3 The knowledge graph is built from related frontmatter parsed into PostgreSQL. Semantic search works across both directories via the same Voyage AI and Pinecone pipeline used for code search.7

Security

API keys are stored only as SHA-256 hashes; plaintext is never stored or logged, and timing-safe comparison is used on each request.6 Two credential types exist: master API keys (org-scoped, prefixed cgk_live_) and scoped tokens (repo-scoped, prefixed cgt_, valid for 1 hour to 30 days).6 All writes produce an immutable audit log entry including actor ID, action, resource, IP address, request ID, and timestamp.6 Per-commit payload limits are 1,000 files, 10MB per file, and a 5MB REST body; pushes via Git Smart HTTP are capped at 32MB.6

Pricing

The free tier includes 5 repositories, 1GB storage, 10,000 API calls per month, and 5GB Git transfer per month.1 The pay-as-you-go tier charges $0.10 per GB of storage per month, $0.50 per 1,000 API calls, and $0.10 per GB of Git transfer, with a $49 per month custom domain add-on.1 Enterprise pricing is custom, with volume discounts, SSO/SAML, and dedicated SLAs.1

Traction

Prettiflow, an AI code formatting and workflow company, was Coregit's first paying customer and hit 30,000 API requests within days of launch.9 Coregit's homepage features testimonials from three Prettiflow employees, including CEO Amit Dey.1 The Hacker News submission, posted under the username AlenzhanJ, had 1 point at the time of research.10 The LinkedIn post announcing the open-source release received 216 reactions and 32 comments.9
