Active Build

JARVIS is an agentic harness that keeps identity, memory, context, permissions, tools, and device handoff independent from any one model. Its Tauri desktop host, Python core, React interface, local retrieval, speech pipeline, and deterministic policy layer are implemented and verified. Further daily-use qualification is paused until the local-model workload moves to hardware with sufficient memory headroom.

Stack, status, evidence, and public actions are rendered from the typed project record.

What this project is

JARVIS is an agentic harness that keeps identity, memory, context, permissions, tools, and device handoff independent from any one model. Its Tauri desktop host, Python core, React interface, local retrieval, speech pipeline, and deterministic policy layer are implemented and verified. Further daily-use qualification is paused until the local-model workload moves to hardware with sufficient memory headroom.

Problem

Why it matters

Most assistants lose context between tools and devices, tie their memory to one provider, and blur the boundary between a model proposing an action and software authorizing it.

Solution

Approach

An owned personal-intelligence runtime that connects models to durable memory, voice, perception, and typed tools while deterministic policy keeps execution under the user's control.

Architecture

System shape and stack

Control Plane

Models reason; policy controls execution

Models can propose work, but typed capabilities, exact approvals, cancellation, provenance, audit records, and undo determine what the system may actually do.

Current Boundary

Software foundation complete, hardware gate visible

The runtime and verification infrastructure are implemented. Daily use remains paused because the current 16 GB host cannot safely keep the minimum capable local model resident beside the full desktop workload.
