Browser
Start with a Thing in the tab.
CyOS begins where the user already is: a browser session that can hold local state, ask reBe, and move toward stronger identity only when the user chooses.
CyOS operating surface
Start in the browser. Pair a trusted node. Connect Corpus at source. Run capabilities where the boundary permits. Govern it through Console.
A Thing can sign in, continue, and act across surfaces.
Source data stays where it belongs; projections move by grant.
reBe, apps, nodes, and realms meet in one owner-governed surface.
Current state
Browser
CyOS begins where the user already is: a browser session that can hold local state, ask reBe, and move toward stronger identity only when the user chooses.
Node
A cyos-node can run on a desktop, laptop, mini PC, home server, or office device. It adds durable local work without making a cloud account the default owner.
Corpus
Corpus keeps source systems authoritative. CyOS can read projections, source references, freshness, and evidence while the real data remains with the device, file share, app, or store that owns it.
Capability
A capability can be a UI panel, workflow, model route, local function, agent action, or machine-callable operation. CyOS gives it a place to appear and a grant model for what it may touch.
Console
The public page explains the shell. The Console is where an authorized Thing inspects sessions, readiness, projections, grants, activation, access networks, and operational evidence.
Operator
Operator lets websites and apps carry page, section, session, invite, and continuity context into CyOS without exposing owner telemetry on the public page.
Operators and realms
SafeHarbour is the running proof. The practical path begins with homes, labs, and small businesses, then grows toward managed realms, enterprise departments, operator edge, and future fabric.
Ways in
Trust boundary
CyOS does not make owner intelligence public to prove that the system works. The public page explains the shell. The Console governs detailed reads. Operator writes are narrow and contract validated.
