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.

editorial(infrastructure): fix totebox-archive's GeoParquet mischaracterization, de-narrate standing correction (Track-B) — GeoParquet was claimed as an internal Totebox WORM storage format for site boundaries/location records; it's actually the format Overture Maps Foundation publishes its own external open dataset in (app-orchestration-gis/ingest-overture.py), ingested separately for GIS analysis, not an internal storage format at all — removed from the storage-format table, added a clarifying line; applied the rest of the already-resolved correction (os-orchestration placeholder framing, pairings.yaml genuinely read by app-orchestration-command) directly rather than narrating it; register-clean EN+ES; ES pair never had the GeoParquet fix, now matches

**Correction revised, 2026-08-02** (an earlier pass in this session checked a stale local branch; re-checked against canonical `origin/main`): (1) `os-orchestration` is a real registered crate, but its own `src/lib.rs` is a 4-line placeholder scaffold with no aggregation logic — the described functionality still isn't built, but "not a built crate" was the wrong framing; the "PSP" protocol claim was confirmed fabricated (zero code footprint even on canonical) and has been removed below (2026-08-06) — the query/access-path description is now hedged as planned/intended with no invented protocol name. (2) The GeoParquet claim needs softening, not full retraction: GeoParquet is real in the codebase (`app-orchestration-gis/ingest-overture.py`), but as the format Overture Maps Foundation publishes its open *external* dataset in, ingested for GIS analysis — not as this article claims, an internal Totebox WORM storage format for site boundaries/location records. (3) The `pairings.yaml` correction needs reversing: it's real and, per canonical `orchestration-command-server`'s own `main.rs` (`COMMAND_PAIRINGS_PATH`, default `/srv/foundry/pairings.yaml`), it genuinely is read by real `app-orchestration-command` runtime code — the claim that "no os-orchestration/os-totebox runtime code queries it" was itself wrong. **Flagged, not resolved** — still needs correcting the GeoParquet row's actual use case; the pairings.yaml claim can likely stand closer to as originally written.

A Totebox Archive is a sovereign data vault assigned to a single entity — a building, a company, a person, or any other unit the operator defines. It is the fundamental storage and identity unit of the PointSav stack. The archive is packaged as a bootable disk image and runs as a virtual machine on the PPN hypervisor layer. It is released under Apache 2.0 and available free of charge: one operator, one archive, is a free deployment.

| Format | Content |

| Markdown | Human-readable documents (memos, notes, reports) |

GeoParquet is not one of the archive's own storage formats — it's the format Overture Maps Foundation publishes its open external dataset in, ingested separately for GIS analysis.

Every write appends; no record is ever modified or deleted. This is a Write Once, Read Many (WORM) ledger. The archive accumulates a complete, tamper-evident history of every entry ever recorded. There is no `DELETE` operation and no `UPDATE` operation — only append. An entry that must be superseded is followed by a correction entry; the original entry remains permanently visible in the log.

This design is intentional: the archive is a legal-grade record of what an entity knew and when it knew it. The immutability guarantee is structural, not a configuration option.
