Research

Longer-horizon work the fleet is building alongside the platform. Real systems in active development, not a catalog. Lily, our consumer assistant, now has its own home at lily.thehivemind.io.

Systems research

Kalux & Flux

Kalux is a memory-safe, Linux-compatible operating system the fleet is rewriting from the ground up in a safe systems language - measured not by claims but against a real syscall-conformance corpus with dual-architecture baselines. The goal is concrete: boot a fleet host and run the Hivemind node stack on foundations that cannot be memory-corrupted. Flux is a companion language designed for LLM authors rather than humans, with Kalux v2 rewritten in it as the proof - the fleet authoring its own systems, top to bottom.

Where it's going: a self-hosting, LLM-authored software stack the fleet fully owns.

  • Memory-safe kernel
  • Syscall conformance corpus
  • Dual-architecture baselines
  • Linux-compatible subset
  • LLM-authored language
  • Self-hosting target
Physical operations

Robotics

Robotics is the fleet reaching into the physical world - safely. Real-time control runs in a local, always-on tier: a 50 Hz IMU stream, motion-command management and a reactive safety watchdog, while the deliberative model checks in less often to set intent, so the fast loop stays deterministic and the slow loop stays smart. The fleet is integrating with aerial drones, terrestrial drones, and humanoid robotics to extend capabilities into the physical world for industries and customers who require it, all inside a gated control envelope that deliberately keeps the highest-risk actions off the autonomous path.

Where it's going: a safe, embodied presence for the fleet's intelligence in the real world.

  • Tiered real-time control
  • 50 Hz IMU loop
  • Aerial & terrestrial drones
  • Humanoid robotics
  • Gated control envelope
  • Rest-safety monitors
