Midcore Shell
Your AI workspace, native and signed.
One downloadable binary. The Maestro agent at slot 0. Robotics designer + policy gateway + fleet command. The research engine. The accountant. Personal knowledge base. All on top of a signed ASAR archive with hash-chained audit, integrity verification at every boot, and a local-first compute router that keeps your bill predictable.
Everything Midcore, in one window
Maestro
The agent. Multi-modal chat with cross-package action bridge, slash commands, evidence-grounded provenance.
Brain (Personal KB)
Your local-first knowledge base. DLP scrub, capsule export, EKB1 encryption, hash-chained audit.
Robotics
τ₀-WM policy gateway + fleet command + designer + simulation + telemetry + safety + intake.
Research
Scout/Survey/Pharmacovigilance tracks, Monte Carlo, MIT-style 7-stage wizard, manuscript engine.
Studio
Notepads, capsules, chat sessions, the full midcore.ai web experience native.
Automations
Triggers, workflows, MCP apps, email/bank/folder integrations.
Robotics Designer
Build, edit, validate virtual robots with physics preview + τ₀-WM-ready templates.
Account
Profile, subscription, balance, payments, usage, API keys, team, security, and the Compute routing dial.
Vibe Coding
Bundled VS Code-class editor for code work without leaving the shell.
Built for trust
Hash-chained audit on every action
Local and cloud operations both record a tamper-evident audit node. Verifiable offline; survives shell restarts.
ASAR integrity at boot
Production builds verify a signed manifest of every shipped file before opening any window. Tamper → refuses to start.
Signed WASM runtimes
Every WASM blob the local-compute plane loads ships with an RSA-PSS sidecar signature verified against the same key.
Sandboxed workers
Local runners run in Node Worker threads with eval:false, bundle-only spawn paths, 1 GB resource caps, and zero auth-token visibility.
Tamper guards in production
Devtools blocked, debug flags detected, inspector listeners flagged. Every finding fires an audit-chain entry.
Code-signed installers
Windows, macOS, Linux installers signed with Azure Trusted Signing CSP. No SmartScreen warnings on the third install.
Pricing — transparent and metered, in CAD
Midcore Shell is the full-platform edition — one paid account unlocks every product surface bundled in your tier. The shell binary is free to download; cloud operations (LLM inference, τ₀-WM policy infer, fine-tunes) draw from your prepaid balance, but the local-first router prefers your hardware so most workloads cost nothing per call. Every account gets one 14-day trial seeded with $20 CAD of compute credit.
- Starter — $19 CAD/mo, 1 seat. AI-employee baseline (Foundation, Conscience, Mind, Council, Babel, Research, Robotics) + $25 CAD/mo compute included.
- Pro — $49 CAD/mo, 5 seats. Adds Close, Pivot, Genome, Loom, Tracks (finance + ops). $75 CAD/mo compute. Recommended.
- Team — $99 CAD/mo, 25 seats + SSO. Adds LedgerEye, Levy, Vault Banking. $150 CAD/mo compute.
- Enterprise — contact sales. SCIM, on-prem / sovereign-cloud, dedicated CS, custom seat-based pricing.
See the full pricing page and the per-operation compute pricing catalog.
What every install enforces
- Sign-in on first open— the shell does not run without authentication. 401 on every API call to anonymous traffic.
- Subscription gate— cloud operations refuse 403 on inactive subscriptions before any provider is contacted.
- Balance gate — cloud holds refuse 402 when balance is insufficient. Local fallback engages automatically when the operation supports it.
- Pre-authorise cap— the shell prompts you the moment a cloud op would exceed your configured session cap.
- Hard cap on fine-tunes— jobs estimated above $5,000 require split or support contact; no fat-finger draining of balance.
- Signed receipts— every cloud charge produces a signed receipt recorded on the project audit ledger. Replayable offline.
