The Kasbah Charter

⚖️ Principles

• Authority precedes autonomy – No AI action without explicit human delegation.
• Revocation is absolute – Any delegated authority can be reclaimed instantly.
• Auditability by design – Every decision is cryptographically signed and immutable.
• Local‑first – No data leaves your device unless you explicitly approve the action.
• Open source – The core enforcement engine is fully auditable on GitHub.

📜 Human authority boundary

Kasbah never rewrites, sanitizes, or judges the content of AI interactions. It only enforces the boundaries you set – before any data reaches the AI.

🛡️ Non‑negotiable

We will never:
– Introduce cloud‑only features
– Remove the kill switch
– Log sensitive content
– Allow the system to be weaponized for surveillance.
