PointSav Documentation

The engineering library for the PointSav platform — operating systems and services for regulated businesses that own their data, their AI, and their record-keeping outright. Where the monorepo holds the code, this wiki holds the reasoning: architecture, services, security, and the governance commitments that bind future development.

## PPN application

The PointSav Private Network is planned/intended to use seL4 as the hypervisor layer on AArch64 nodes. In that configuration, the seL4 capability topology governs what components can communicate across the mesh. The WireGuard mesh interface, the pairing ceremony server, and the fleet management service each occupy distinct seL4 protection domains with explicitly granted capability channels. A component without a capability to the WireGuard protection domain cannot modify peer tables — regardless of whether it is compromised.

This is the formal basis for the PPN security model at the hypervisor layer.
The PointSav Private Network is planned/intended to use seL4 as the hypervisor layer on AArch64 nodes. In that configuration, the seL4 capability topology would govern what components can communicate across the mesh.

**Scoped correction (2026-07-30):** the paragraph originally here stated, in present
tense, that "the WireGuard mesh interface, the pairing ceremony server, and the fleet
management service each occupy distinct seL4 protection domains" — inconsistent with
this section's own opening hedge ("planned/intended"). Verified against the real PPN
VM crates: `service-vm-fleet`, `service-vm-host`, and `service-vm-tenant` (the actual
fleet/host/tenant services running today, per `.agent/rules/project-registry.md`) carry
zero seL4 dependency anywhere in source — plain Rust/`axum` services, not seL4
protection domains. `moonshot-hypervisor` (the crate that would host any real seL4
hypervisor layer) has an empty `Cargo.toml` dependency list. Rephrased to the
conditional to match the section's own stated hedge, rather than describing a
protection-domain assignment that does not exist in the running system today. This is
a scoped, single-paragraph fix — the rest of this article (seL4's own external,
published formal-verification properties) is unaffected and was not re-verified beyond
this paragraph.

This would be the formal basis for the PPN security model at the hypervisor layer, once that layer is built.
