Your machine.
Your intelligence.
Reiva is a user-first, system-level adaptive awareness — a context memory manager that runs entirely on your hardware. No cloud. No subscription. No vendor watching over your shoulder. Three intelligences. Your machine, your way.

From the top down.
Every layer is real, every layer is yours to inspect. This is the full stack — nothing hidden, nothing assumed.
The source of all authorization. Every boundary Reiva holds is one you set. The system serves your intent — it does not manipulate it.
The central awareness layer. Receives every request, holds the trust boundary, and carries no authority of her own. The line she holds is the one you drew. Nothing moves through Reiva without your explicit say-so.
Reads the intent of every request and routes it to the correct pipeline. No intelligence is reached without passing through here. Routing is deterministic — not guessed, not assumed.
Three dedicated channels — each named, each scoped to its intelligence. Calder carries Forge's continuity thread. Axiom holds the structural path to Arch. Plumb keeps Solen's invariant line true. Nothing crosses pipeline boundaries. Each is independently authorized before it handles a single request. Each connects to the model you choose — Forge, Arch, and Solen don't have to run on the same backend.
Synthesis, structure, and reasoning from the full system state. Arch maps what's happening and builds understanding from it. Route with "ask arch."
Named for what he does. A forge takes raw material — ideas, problems, questions without answers — and works them into something real. Sustained effort until something emerges that wasn't there before. Not maintenance. Making. Route with "ask forge."
Pressure-testing and analysis. Solen checks what holds against what's established and finds where things don't add up. Route with "ask solen."
Ember handles the background operational layer — staging, cleanup, and the work that keeps the system running cleanly so the intelligences don't have to. Ember earned the name.
Built differently.
Reiva separates compatibility substrate, operational governance, and trust authority into independently inspectable layers. Nothing activates without your explicit say-so.
Reiva is built around your sovereignty. Nothing activates without your explicit say-so. The installer asks first. The app asks first. You hold the authorization layer — not the system, not the vendor.
Reiva runs on local models — via Ollama or your choice of local backend. Sessions, memory, and intelligence logs are stored on your hardware. Nothing leaves through Reiva without your explicit authorization. (External options available.)
Varyn — Reiva's memory integrity gate — stages what's worth keeping and verifies it before anything commits to long-term memory. Context builds as you use it. Nothing commits without passing through Varyn.
Reiva never impersonates a vendor or substitutes authority silently. Provenance is mandatory — not original, truthful.
The architecture has a paper trail.
The Automated Intelligence class definition, The Missing Layer whitepaper, and The Continuity Layer are formally filed with the U.S. Copyright Office. The architecture was derived and documented before it was built.
