**An intelligence substrate for working with AI.**

loci is the plain-text firmware for a persistent, private cognitive system: the templates and processes that decide how memory, context, and trust work, regardless of which AI runs them or how. One blueprint, many expressions. Local-first. No cloud, no accounts, no lock-in.

The desktop app and the CLI in this repo are two expressions built on top of the substrate, released together as the 0.6 open beta. They are not the substrate. You do not need either to start.

Start in plain markdown (the door)

loci is plain text first. No build.

git clone https://github.com/huximaxi/loci

Copy the [`templates/`](templates/) kit into a folder of your own, open [FIRST-SESSION.md](FIRST-SESSION.md), and point any file-aware AI at your palace `CLAUDE.md`. That is the setup. Not sure where to begin? Run the [feature helper](templates/feature-helper.md) and it points you. The full walkthrough is in [SETUP-GUIDE.md](SETUP-GUIDE.md); if an agent is doing the setup for you, see [AGENT-SETUP.md](AGENT-SETUP.md).

What it gives you

Seven feature sets, all shipped as plain-text firmware.

Persistent Memory. Your AI remembers, on your terms. Tiered crystals (◇ ◈ ◆) you can promote, expire, pin, and compost.
Context Architecture. The right context loads at the right time. Rooms, an L0-L3 retrieval hierarchy, a local map.
Identity & Personas. A companion that is someone, who knows who you are. A soul file, a peer card, named personas.
The Garden. Ideas cultivated, not just stored. One file per idea, a health pass, seed-to-crystal graduation.
*Continuity & Synthesis.
