The product problem
A fully local, private research setup: SearXNG + Tor + Ahmia for search (clearnet and onion), a llama.cpp model for reasoning, wired into a search-grounded chat plus a deep-research pipeline. Nothing leaves your box except Tor-routed searches; the model never executes code. The engineering challenge is to turn that scope into a legible system with explicit inputs, dependable workflow boundaries, and an outcome that can be inspected and maintained.
