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.

Platform ServicesIndex

PointSav's three-ring architecture assigns every service to a layer with defined authority and dependencies. Ring 1 services handle per-tenant boundary ingest — each accepts raw data from one external source and writes it to a durable ledger. Ring 2 services provide deterministic knowledge and processing: they read from Ring 1 and produce structured records, knowledge graphs, and search indexes. Ring 3 is a single service, service-slm, which reads from Ring 2 and never writes to it.

The platform functions fully across Rings 1 and 2 without AI compute — a deployment can exclude Ring 3 entirely, shrinking the attack surface and satisfying network-isolation requirements. Where Ring 3 is included, the compliance question of whether AI has touched the authoritative record is answered architecturally, not procedurally: Ring 2 services may call Ring 3 for extraction or classification proposals (service-extraction's corpus hand-off to service-content, which calls the Doorman for grammar-constrained entity extraction into the DataGraph, is one such path), but Ring 3 never writes to the knowledge graph, the ledger, or any structured record store. Every accepted proposal enters the record only through a Ring 2 write path with a human approval checkpoint.

Start here: service-fs — the WORM ledger backbone — the filesystem service every other Ring 1 service writes to, and the foundation of the WORM audit posture the rest of this category assumes.

Ring 1 — Boundary ingest

Per-tenant boundary services. Each runs as a separate process per tenant and exposes a Model Context Protocol server interface.

  • service-fs — the WORM ledger backbone — The per-tenant Write-Once-Read-Many immutable ledger that backs every record written to the platform — a real, implemented HTTP and MCP interface over a hash-chained append log, with monthly external anchoring to a public transparency log.
  • Email ingest — service-email pulls mail out of a Microsoft Exchange mailbox over EWS, writes the raw message to local storage, and deletes it from the source mailbox immediately after extraction — the cloud mailbox is a transit point, not a copy of record.
  • service-people — the identity ledger service — service-people is the F2 surface in os-console — an MCP server over an append-only, WORM-backed identity ledger with three tools: append, lookup, and regex-based email scanning.
  • service-input — reference-archive migration and calibration — service-input batch-migrates markdown reference material from a source archive into the platform's ingest pipeline, deduplicating by content hash and validating against each file's own ledger record — with a companion tool that scores how well downstream extraction matches that ledger.

Ring 2 — Knowledge and processing

Deterministic processing services. Each reads from Ring 1 and produces structured records — no AI variance enters the authoritative record.

  • service-extraction — the DataGraph ingestion pipeline — service-extraction watches a directory for incoming JSON payloads carrying edge-classified entities, writes a per-payload ledger record for the target service, and can bridge the same text into the DataGraph ingestion pipeline.
  • service-content — entity extraction and knowledge-graph host — service-content extracts named entities from raw payloads through a tiered model pipeline, writes them into the knowledge graph under a human-review checkpoint, and hosts the platform's reference taxonomies.
  • Full-text search — service-search is a designed but unbuilt Ring 2 full-text search service — a README describes a Tantivy-based inverted index, but no source code exists yet.
  • Egress service — service-egress compresses and chunks local mail data for outbound transfer, and only deletes the local source once an external counterpart confirms receipt with a cryptographic proof — an outbound release valve, not a cloud-to-local import.
  • Archetypes and chart of accounts — The Chart of Accounts and eleven archetypes are two reference taxonomies service-content loads into the knowledge graph, giving every classified entity a structural category and a functional signature.

Ring 3 — AI gateway

One service spans Ring 3. It reads from Ring 2 and produces proposals a human reviews; it never writes to the knowledge graph or the ledger.

  • AI inference service — service-slm is the platform's AI inference gateway — every request, local or remote, transits the Doorman's audit boundary and one of three compute tiers before a response returns.
  • SLM and Yo-Yo operational state — How service-slm's three-tier inference router and the Yo-Yo GPU burst VM operate: the Doorman boundary, the local and burst tiers, the apprenticeship queue, and the idle-shutdown cost ceiling.
  • SLM as Totebox sysadmin — the plan — A planned direction for service-slm: using its real, already-operational capture-then-verdict training pipeline to build a Totebox sysadmin assistant — the specific task taxonomy and tooling described here are not yet built.
  • service-slm graph store rebuild — service-slm's graph store runs a nightly rebuild — entity extraction via the Doorman writes directly to the graph on completion, with no human review step in the rebuild script itself.
  • Yo-Yo daily enrichment cycle — The nightly two-phase GPU batch window that rebuilds the DataGraph and, once fully enabled, trains adapter weights for the local language model — currently running in DataGraph-only mode.

Specialist and domain services

Services built for specific platform capabilities.

  • Business clustering — A parent-child spatial pattern that turns raw retail points into one commercial entity per physical site, so the GIS pipeline reasons about a location once instead of once per co-located tenant.
  • Places filtering — A filtering step that keeps only regional-grade institutions from raw civic data, so GIS tier rankings reflect institutional concentration rather than every clinic and community facility.
  • Wallet settlement — the design — service-wallet is a planned per-tenant accounting ledger for reverse-flow marketplace revenue — no code exists yet; the design calls for a non-custodial, signed-entry ledger rather than a payment rail.
  • Message courier service — A deliberately thin engine that dynamically loads a customer's private adapter script and hands it execution control — keeping every operational detail of a client's web-automation logic out of the open-source codebase entirely.
  • FS anchor emitter — A one-shot binary that fetches a signed WORM-ledger checkpoint from service-fs, anchors it to the public Sigstore Rekor transparency log, and writes the resulting log entry back — making ledger state auditable from outside the platform.
  • GIS data lake — The GIS pipeline's data lake is its foundational storage layer — a flat-file store holding raw geospatial points, available to every downstream step in the same pipeline. Distinct from service-fs, the platform's separate WORM ledger.
  • Template ledger — Distribution mechanism in service-email-template that syncs one authoritative copy of every approved template to the operator's mail environment, eliminating version drift.
  • The proofreading pipeline's wire contract — The real client-confirmed contract for the platform's proofreading pipeline: a fixed set of language protocols, a response that reports which compute tier ran and what degraded, and a binary human verdict that feeds the training corpus.
  • Private binary download endpoint for paying customers — The binary release server behind software.pointsav.com verifies Ed25519 license tokens and streams compiled binaries — stateless, holding no payment records or keys, with some products served openly and no license check at all.
  • service-pointsav-link — planned PointSav fleet adapter — service-pointsav-link is a named but unbuilt adapter concept for connecting an os-* node to a PointSav fleet — no corresponding package exists in the monorepo today.
  • service-vm-fleet — the PPN VM fleet controller — The fleet controller maintains a global view of node capacity across the PPN WireGuard mesh and handles placement decisions for virtual machine spawns.
  • POI data schema — The record structures for location data ingested from OpenStreetMap and Overture Maps Foundation, normalised into a unified JSONL schema before cluster analysis. Wikidata QIDs are the primary chain identifier, and a parent-child sub-location model handles co-branded ancillary services.
  • Regional name resolution architecture — The layered offline reverse-geocoding engine that turns a cluster's coordinates into a human-readable regional name — its boundary datasets, its country-specific routing order, and the post-processing that makes source-language names readable — with no external API calls.
  • service-vm-tenant — the PPN VM tenant proxy — The tenant proxy enforces authentication, namespace isolation, quota limits, and an immutable audit trail at the customer boundary of the PPN VM resource pool.
