Use the Repo Atlas for the full public ecosystem.
Public-facing surfaces for understanding FMI, finding support, checking app-store releases, and choosing a path into the broader repository ecosystem.
Examples: FMI Pages Site, Public Record, Whatisthisgithub, Easy Start Guide, FMI Research Papers, Google Play releases
Projects focused on offline-capable assistants, small-phone Android chat, local media generation, local LLM build and training workflows, and practical software for everyday use. The stance is local first, cloud optional: cloud when it helps, local when it fits.
Examples: Chatty-Cog, Chatty-mini, Chatty-Pet, Chatty-Art, Chatty-Art Windows install, Chatty-Lora, Nanochat LLM Tweaker, Chatty-Factory, ChattyFactory Rebuild, Chatty-Quest
Projects focused on accessible, local-first educational software for students, teachers, parents, and self-directed learners who need practical tools without accounts or tracking. Local-first here means user control first, with hosted services kept as deliberate choices rather than hidden dependencies.
Examples: Chatty-EDU, Chatty-EDU Windows install, Chatty-EDU User
Reusable guidance for higher-quality human-AI collaboration, session recovery, drift reduction, and explicit operating constraints across local models, hosted models, tools, and providers.
Examples: AI Teaming Framework, Model Behaviour Toolkit
Research into host-side memory, relational reasoning, earned abstraction, failure-aware routing, reducer-governed persistence, semantic sorting, behavioural suitability profiling, and compact continuity for legible local AI systems. Project Leviathan also develops an exploratory cognitive-cartography method: controlled withheld-conclusion tests and cross-domain mapping intended to measure reachable reasoning structure rather than assign a single reasoning score.
Examples: Project Leviathan, EF Engine, RD Engine, LLM Semantic Dataset Sorter, Cognition Mesh Test Chamber, LLM-Defined Persistent Memory, Semantic Signal Alphabet
Work examining alignment incentives, epistemic governance, safety theater, and the practical consequences of suppressing user or operator agency.
Examples: Governance by Design Report, Safety Theatre
A public policy companion for model choice, local/cloud hybrid control, proportionate restraint, broad national capability, and grassroots participation in Australian AI sovereignty.
Examples: AI Fair-Go page, Australian AI Fair-Go repo, Chatty-EDU, Chatty-Cog
Long-cycle conceptual work on cognition, entropy-handling, model behavior, and associated theoretical scaffolds intended for public scrutiny rather than institutional gatekeeping.
Examples: Relational Curriculum Geometry, Entropy Folding hypothesis, cross-domain signal atlas, Project Leviathan, foundational frameworks
