Daily AI research briefs (models, methods, harness, tooling) plus an open-weight model reserve on lab backup storage — Coulomb/NetKingdom intelligence lab.
---
## Core Idea
Freedom Intelligence is a **sensing and reserve** repository:
1. Curated **daily research briefs** across axes A–D (frontier, edge/local, training, harness/fleet).
2.**Inventory + collection policy** for open-weight models retained on backup-class storage for possible later local training or operations.
Git holds briefs, schemas, policies, and catalog metadata. Model weight blobs stay off hot cluster disks on designated backup storage.

## In Scope
### Research brief
- Daily brief production using `briefs/_template.md`
- Layout under `briefs/YYYY/MM/YYYY-MM-DD.md`
- Standing coverage of axes A–D when there is signal
- Collection-candidate flagging for the model reserve
- Source citation and durable archive of briefs in-repo
### Model reserve
- Inventory schema and catalog entries (`inventory/`)
- Collection approval policy and license gate
- Backup storage target and capacity policy (`docs/backup-storage-policy.md`)
- Metadata required to rehydrate a revision (source, hash, license, size, hardware class)
- Companion artifacts when justified (tokenizers, adapters, small eval fixtures)
### Lab documentation
- INTENT / SCOPE / history
- Optional delivery notes for State Hub / operator inbox (`docs/state-hub-delivery.md`)
- Hardware envelope notes as they become known

## Out of Scope
| Concern | Belongs elsewhere |
| ------- | ----------------- |
| Public model mirror / CDN | Not this lab |
| 24/7 inference serving of the full reserve | Future ops facility / runtime repos |
| Frontier-scale pre-training from scratch | Hyperscale; not homelab commitment |
| Closed-weight collection or ToS-violating scrapes | Forbidden |
