sovereign computing — your hardware, your files, no accounts
built in Rust — driving toward pure-Rust releases of the whole suite
LOCAL-FIRST
Every tool runs on hardware you own. Nothing phones home, nothing
needs a login, nothing stops working when a company changes its mind.
FAIL-LOUD
No silent fallbacks, no degraded modes. When something breaks it says
so, plainly, so you can fix it — not discover it weeks later.
YOUR DISK
Files, not clouds. Plain formats you can read in twenty years. Your
work survives any vendor, any subscription, any deletion policy.
IN CONCERT
Not one app — a system. Notebook, CAD, image forge, print
pipeline: modules built to work together on your own machines.
THE LIVYATAN DESIGN SUITE
design → toolpath → machine — every module named from myth and antiquity
STRUCTOR
CAD, sovereign. Solids in, drawings out.
PHANTASOS
Image generation on your own iron. No queue, no account.
GILGAMESH
Image to mesh. A photo becomes a printable solid.
> three modules ready — free for individuals and small shops, PolyForm Small Business 1.0.0_
> binaries first, source when the full suite ships_
STILL IN THE DEEP
coming soon — surfacing free as each one clears the bench
TIAMAT soon
The host. Every tool on one board — putting chaos to work.
JOVE soon
Resin print prep. Supports, drains, slice to the vat. Held for more testing.
LABYRINTH soon
The viewer. Walk the maze before the machine does. Held for more testing.
NAZCA soon
Laser & plasma prep — lines with meaning and matter.
OURANOS soon
Geodesic dome design. Cut lists, hub schedules, FEA — tape-measure ready.
KISH soon
The library. Notebooks and reports, grounded in your own sources, or fantastical stories. Your choice, your voice.
CHIMAERA soon
The hands and the helm. Camera, puck, and pointer — every window steers by one shared feel.
STYX soon
The oath. One job crosses the GPU at a time.
DIDO soon
The boundary. Offsets and windings — the most land one hide can hold.
HADES soon
The keeper. Giants sleep in the vault; one wakes when called.
ONEIRA soon
The mind-space. Glide through your thoughts and dreams.
GORGON soon
A handheld 3D scanner — point it at a part, get a mesh back. Still being refined on the bench.
DEEPER INTO THE ABYSS
the heavy modules — longest on the bench, last to surface
ANTIKYTHERA soon
Describe a mechanism, get a placed multi-part assembly. The anchor of the suite — still being proven out.
OANNES soon
The shop advisor. Grounded answers, honest G-code post.
HEPHAESTUS soon
CAM. Profiles, pockets, drills, 3D roughing — straight to G-code. Held for more testing.
THE HERALD
the build log — what cleared the bench, as it happens
- 2026-09-06 — The first three modules leave the wall. Structor, Phantasos and GilgaMESH ship as Debian packages, free, downloadable by anyone.
- 2026-09-06 — The Obelisk takes its place across the suite: built in Structor, its glyphs carved from a thirty-year-old pencil drawing, welded watertight by GilgaMESH, printed and standing on the bench.
- 2026-09-06 — Structor's plate stands in a real room: SHOP 3D, a modelled thirty-metre bay with a granite inspection bench and a bridge crane overhead, plus HILLS 3D and SPACE 3D. Save, open, recent files and autosave arrive with it.
- 2026-09-06 — Phantasos renders against an hourglass whose sand is paced to the time your own machine takes, and will hand the work to a GPU box across the LAN at the press of one button.
- 2026-09-06 — GilgaMESH ships as a working test prototype, rough edges declared in its release notes rather than hidden.
- 2026-09-01 — First bench walk: every module opened one at a time, notes taken on each. Twenty-one findings, all closed the same night.
- 2026-09-01 — The NAV panel reaches every module: mouse feel tuned in one is honoured suite-wide, and Structor's panel gains mouse and keyboard sections of its own.
- 2026-09-01 — Structor grows PARTS and PRO-TAG menus — merge, weld and process tags step out of the keyboard and onto buttons.
- 2026-09-01 — Hephaestus watches itself work: live sim progress, and stacked toolpaths split into passes you can step through one at a time.
- 2026-09-01 — Phantasos learns to start from a picture, not just a prompt.
- 2026-09-01 — The build grid turns to glass, the art stops stretching, and every window opens on its own splash.
- 2026-09-01 — Ten modules packaged, ten man pages written, one metapackage:
apt install and the whole bench is on the machine.
- 2026-08-30 — Structor splash lands: the blank obelisk awaits the designer's decision.
- 2026-08-30 — The Obelisk printed: the suite's benchy exists in matter. First print passed.
- 2026-08-30 — Gorgon splash lands: Medusa and the rune obelisk.
- 2026-08-30 — LIVYATAN raised: the umbrella renamed, new masthead. Phantasos joins the available trio.
- 2026-08-29 — Iris merges into Nazca; Ziz becomes Oneira.
- 2026-08-28 — The wall reopens: the first free modules land; others hold for more testing.
