A New Class of Language Model
Chronos-1 is built to debug code at scale.
It moves beyond token prediction to perform structured reasoning across entire codebases.
By tracing logic paths, identifying failure causes, and generating test-passing fixes, Chronos-1 redefines how developers interact with bugs.
Private research is ongoing. Launching in Q4 2025 with Kodezi OS.

[ LLM SYSTEM DESIGN ]
LLM Autonomic Debugging Stack
Chronos operates as a self-healing substrate across source, test, and infrastructure layers, enabling token-efficient, memory-driven software repair at scale.
Memory-Guided Code Retrieval
Chronos traverses a graph-indexed memory of code, tests, logs, and history to extract bug-relevant context.

Comparative Performance and Capabilities of Code Intelligence Tools
This table compares Chronos with other code tools across context, memory, debugging support, and success rate. Chronos is the only system with persistent memory, full CI/CD integration, and a validated debugging loop. It achieves a 65.3 percent success rate, significantly higher than all others.
Model Comparison:
Average Debugging CyclesChronos significantly reduces the number of cycles needed to fix bugs compared to leading language models. While GPT-4, Claude, and CodeT5+ require 5 to 7 iterations on average, Chronos resolves issues in just 2.2 cycles, showcasing its efficiency in debugging workflows.
Debugging Accuracy
by Bug TypeThis chart compares success rates across bug types for Chronos, GPT-4, Claude-3, and Gemini-1.5. Chronos consistently outperforms all others across syntax, logic, memory, concurrency, and integration bugs, achieving over 85 percent in each category while others remain below 25 percent.
Scalability of Debugging
Performance by Codebase SizeThis chart compares how models perform as repository size increases. Chronos maintains high accuracy across all scales, from small to million-line codebases, while other models drop sharply beyond 100K lines of code.
