DOCUMENTATION

For people who read source.
And for people who write it.

Short paths into the project. Long paths exist too — but the short ones cover most of what most people need.

Build the image

Clone the public manifest, sync the trees, run the Soong target, and produce the same hash we publish.

Open

Verify a release

Hash the binary, check the three signatures, compare to the published manifest. We supply the verification script.

Open

Run a federation node

Operate a sovereign federation node. PostgreSQL + Rust daemon + signed peer registry. Helps decentralize the network.

Open

Report a bug

Security issues via security.txt and our PGP key. Functional bugs via the public issue tracker. We respond inside 72 hours.

Open

Contribute a patch

Pull requests welcome on every public repo. We require sign-off, two-reviewer minimum, and a passing reproducible build.

Open

Translate the interface

We are expanding past English. The translation source files live in a public repo. Pull requests appear in the next minor release.

DEEPER REFERENCES

When you are ready to go deeper.

These are the reference documents you will need to write extensions, design experiments, or audit the architecture in detail. They are kept in step with releases.

Sovereign engines reference

What each of the 13 engines does, how they interact, and where the boundaries live.

Emergency mesh protocol

The eight radio fallbacks, the protocols (CAP, EDXL, DTN, Cospas-Sarsat), and the on-device priority logic.

Federation architecture

How sovereign nodes find each other, agree on patterns, and refuse to share anything raw.

Audit ledger format

Hash chain structure, append-only partition layout, and how to export for forensic review.

Sandboxed app contract

What the OS guarantees an app, what it does not, and how the hardware attestation handshake works.

Build flags and reproducibility

SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH, Soong overlays, signing roles. Why our hashes are stable across machines.

COMMUNITY CHANNELS

Talk to the team. Talk to other developers.

Public repository

All non-confidential source under a single org. Issues, pull requests, releases.

Mailing list

Low-volume announce list. Security advisories cross-post here within minutes.

Matrix room

Real-time chat with the engineering team and other developers. End-to-end encrypted.

Quarterly office hour

Live video Q&A with the core team. Calendar published on the changelog page.
