- Aug 9, 2026Hermes Atlas v0.1: A Local-First, Incrementally-Compiled, Falsifiable Knowledge SystemHermes Atlas v0.1 is a local-first, incrementally-compiled, falsifiable knowledge system. This is a full replication guide: every command was run for real, and the failure modes are the findings.sovereign-ailocal-aiknowledge-graphgraphragfalsifiabilitylocal-first
- Aug 9, 2026Hermes Atlas v0.2: Claim-Level Coverage, a Determinism Gate, and a Knowledge-Mutation CanaryHermes Atlas v0.2 is a benchmark-and-fix release: claim-level coverage localisation, a determinism gate that proves compile reproducibility, and a knowledge-mutation canary. Every number below was measured, not asserted.sovereign-ailocal-aiknowledge-graphgraphragfalsifiabilitylocal-first
- Aug 9, 2026Hermes Atlas v0.3: An Evidence Ledger, a Provable Claim Lifecycle, and an Explain CommandHermes Atlas v0.3 adds an evidence ledger to every claim, a provable claim lifecycle (including DELETE-driven invalidation that retains history), and an `atlas explain` command. Every number below was measured, not asserted.sovereign-ailocal-aiknowledge-graphgraphragfalsifiabilitylocal-first
- Aug 9, 2026Hermes Atlas v0.4: Proving the Evidence Ledger & Claim Lifecycle with a Gold-Labeled BenchmarkHermes Atlas v0.4 proves the v0.3 evidence ledger and provable claim lifecycle with a gold-labeled benchmark. Every number was measured on a fixed, model-free corpus; two real bugs were found and fixed in the process. Everything below is reproducible.sovereign-ailocal-aiknowledge-graphgraphragfalsifiabilitylocal-first
- Jul 11, 2026Knowledge Compiler: Why I'm Building a Compiler for Human Knowledge Instead of Another RAG SystemKnowledge Compiler transforms collections of Markdown documents into statically-deployable semantic artifacts — knowledge graphs, concept hierarchies, vector embeddings, and cluster maps — using a multi-pass compilation pipeline. No runtime LLM inference required.knowledge-compilerknowledge-graphsRAGGraphRAGAI-infrastructurelocal-ai
- Jul 6, 2026The Sovereign Loop: Why Model-Local AI Is the Missing Operating System LayerGLM-5.2 runs locally on four workstation GPUs. Context engineering has become agent-harness engineering. Here's why sovereignty isn't a niche interest — it's the missing operating system layer, and the argument I make at length in Sovereign AI.sovereign-ailocal-aiai-agentsmoecontext-engineeringsovereignty

Ollama setup, model selection, hardware requirements from $2K to $50K, and wiring local inference into a sovereign pipeline.local-aisovereign-aiollamacontext-engineeringlocal-firstprivacy
- Jul 3, 2026The Model Is Not the Product: Residual State, Compiled Agents, and Optimization LoopsThree converging research threads — Apple's Residual Context Diffusion, LMSYS/SGLang agentic execution graphs, and constrained optimization for agent loops — collapse into a single architectural claim: the model is no longer the product. The loop is.

- Jul 3, 2026The Loop Is the Product: Inside the Sovereign Intelligence ObservatoryA technical deep dive into the Sovereign Intelligence Observatory: a six-component, local-first pipeline that turns every agent run into a versioned recipe, routes evaluation by confidence tier, detects capability drift with KS and PSI statistics, extracts tacit expert judgment into decision trees, and manages the supervised-to-autonomous transition. With architecture diagrams, code from the actual repo, and the case for why observability -- not the model -- is the real product.sovereign-intelligence-observatoryagent-recipesdrift-detectionexpert-signal-routingtacit-knowledge-extractionautonomy-ladders
