The memory appliance

Files here. Conversations elsewhere.
Memory in another app.

Crewix brings storage, memory and agent onto one machine, delivered as one unit. It runs offline, and its memory travels with the machine.

Three layers on one machine

Files, remembered context and agent sit on the same appliance. Storage keeps each tenant's directories apart. Memory keeps the past available. The agent carries its own persona, memory and permissions.

01 · STORAGE

Btrfs, one subvolume set per tenant

A filesystem with separately manageable subvolumes provisions each tenant's user directories and memory tiers.

02 · MEMORY

Five tiers, raw text preserved

Memory runs from raw to big picture. The raw tier stays read-only, and the index can be rebuilt from it.

03 · AGENT

One agent entity per tenant

Each tenant has its own persona, memory and permissions, using a local model or a customer-chosen cloud model.

Keep the past available

Crewix alone gives you an agent system that does not lose its memory and can be asked about the past. Add Brainix for judgement: answers with explanations, and evidence of delivery.

The crew you get

Six roles, each with one working rule it is held to. Same crew on every appliance.

mandy

mandyCoordinator

Takes in the request and keeps it moving until it is delivered.

Working ruleAnswered is not done. Done is when the delivered file exists.

tt

ttOperations

Runs the machine and the work queue: filing, upkeep, backups, network, and who does what.

Working ruleCheck the file on disk before you call it done.

tg

tgJudgement

Splits a vague problem into options, weighs them, gives one recommendation.

Working ruleIf doing it and not doing it lead to the same result, decide it yourself.

wendy

wendyBuild

Turns a written spec into something that runs, and proves it runs.

Working ruleIf the spec is unclear, stop and ask. Never guess.

debbie

debbieQuality control

Checks what was built, independently of the person who built it.

Working ruleNeither the author nor the owner can talk me out of the evidence.

brain

brainRecords

Keeps the authoritative record and decides what is worth keeping.

Working ruleIf it is not recorded, it did not happen.

Delivered as one unit

One appliance serves each organisation, with capacity for peak periods set per deployment. An Ubuntu autoinstall ISO — a disc image that installs unattended — takes the machine to a login prompt with services already running.

Unattended installation

The installer completes without an operator at the keyboard, reaching a login prompt with services already up.

One codebase, offline licence

Features open by licence, without separate code forks. At licence expiry the appliance degrades; it does not stop.

Optional stewardship

Our agents handle day-to-day on/off, backup and alerting. Architectural changes are scheduled separately from that routine work.

Recent work

What you can check

Ask us to run any of these in front of you.

Ubuntu autoinstall ISO build v1.16 installs unattended to a login prompt with services up.
Installation was verified end-to-end on a real UEFI virtual machine — installation finished, services up, guest checked.
Boot paths were verified on both UEFI, the modern boot firmware, and legacy BIOS, the older one.
Each tenant sees only its own directories in the shares the installer creates.
With the network unplugged, the agent still runs and its memory is still queryable.

Start with where it will sit

Tell us where the appliance will sit, who needs an agent, and whether you want routine stewardship alongside storage and memory on the machine.
