HOM3 is local-first AI infrastructure: run capable AI on hardware you own, where your data and the record of what the system did stay yours -- verifiably, and without trusting a central authority.

Three layers, one project:
- Desktop app (shipping): the command center, source-viewable
- Custom OS: lean Buildroot system on a mainline kernel, own init/boot core (~2,660 lines), first boot achieved on RK3588 (OrangePi 5 Plus)
- Handheld: a carrier-free sovereign device -- RK3588 prototype, Radxa CM5-class module as production candidate, 7" DSI touch panel

Why it exists: provenance should be a property of the system, not a sticker on a file. The record lives on hardware the operator holds, chained and tamper-evident, checkable by anyone without a central referee.

Follow the build: bring-up logs, the boot and the road to CS hopefully.
