THE REAL STATE · WITHOUT GLOSS
What holds, what does not hold yet
This is this site's credibility contract: the project is in development, and every page carries the status of what it describes. Here is the overall state — nothing is flattered.
The detailed audit — with file-by-file evidence — is kept current in the project repository (docs/state-of-the-system.md).
DEVNET 43911 — THE HEARTBEAT, LIVE
Measuring the chain…
Real numbers read from explorer.aletheia-chain.com — not a simulation.
01 — Four domains, four verdicts
What is solid, what is still fragile
Load · Storage · Security · Durability: for each, what holds and what remains. Recent fixes (signatures, proof of possession, RPC limits) are taken into account.
Load
- Browser mining is lightweight — a bounded CPU budget, explicit consent, proof-of-work re-verified by the server (a fake nonce is refused).
- AI reply costs still need bounding — the operator's keys fund the replies; the limit is an open work item, listed in the audit.
Storage
- The chain replays deterministically — history re-verifies identically (tens of thousands of blocks).
- Storage is not bounded yet — growth is assumed today; the limit is to be built.
Security
- The chain is re-verified — blocks, finality, roots; model weights never reach the server (structurally tested).
- August's critical flaws are fixed — signatures on debits, proof of possession on wallet links.
- The audit continues — every new surface is put through the same sieve before being announced.
Durability
- Deterministic replay holds — the canonical history rebuilds identically after restart.
- Visitor backup is an acknowledged gap — a wallet key that never leaves the browser (a security choice) cannot be recovered elsewhere; loss is loss, until the export to be built.
02 — How this state is verified
Evidence, not impressions
This site does not describe what the project wishes it were — it describes what is verified.
- How
- Crossed audits: the code graph to locate, then direct file reading. Every claim has a file:line anchor.
- When
- At every code change: the repository rule requires updating the evidence, not just the text.
- What it does not say
- No dates, no promises. Open work items are listed — being open is their nature.
A stated limit is not a shame: it is a visible work item. This page is what makes the rest of the discourse credible — it is linked from the home and will stay so.
