Local first
Homes retain local file access and compatible local services during an outside-network outage, subject to power, LAN and installed software.
The Library / System Design
Local by design. Connected by permission.
The Library is designed as a household-owned computing node on the home's local network. It can provide storage, coordination, instruction and services to compatible connected devices.

Permission boundaries
Residents authorize device connections and data sharing. Manual controls and critical local safety behaviors remain available.
Recoverability
Documented backups, versioned configurations, spare parts and standard connectors reduce single-point failure risk.
Data stewardship
We envision household ownership and practical exportability, with clear consent, access controls and an offline-capable design. Remote AI is an optional service path—not a substitute for an installed local model or local backups.
