Own your dev stack. Your models, your servers, your domains, your data — no rented lanes, no silent fallbacks, no subscription you can't audit.
Local inference on your own iron. Hermes-class models served from your VDS, not someone else's rate limit.
VDS, tailnet, DNS, certs — sovereign stack, single operator, verifiable state on disk.
Encrypted mail, own-drive backups, evidence-gated task records. Chat is a window; disk is the brain.
