Cortex v0.1

Lightweight Python pub/sub over ZeroMQ IPC. Typed messages, automatic topic discovery, zero-copy frames for NumPy and PyTorch.

What you get

• PUB/SUB over ZeroMQ IPC.
• A discovery daemon for topic → endpoint resolution.
• 64-bit message fingerprints; strict type matching.
• Zero-copy out-of-band frames for NumPy arrays and PyTorch tensors.
• Async (asyncio + uvloop) and synchronous subscriber modes.

C++ implementation

A standalone C++ port of the wire format (header, msgpack metadata, OOB buffers, discovery client, pub/sub) lives in cortex_wire_cpp/. It's pure CMake, no ROS dependency, and exists for native consumers that want sub-millisecond latency without Python in the loop. See the README for the layout and DOCS.md for the API.
