SymID

User-owned portable cognitive identity and permission routing.

PROTOTYPEIdentity / permissions

The Problem

AI systems lack portable, user-controlled identity that carries operating principles, communication preferences, active projects, permission rules, memory-store pointers, and activation profiles across sessions and platforms.

The Approach

SymID acts as a keychain and routing map—carrying user identity, operating principles, communication preferences, active projects, permission rules, memory-store pointers, and activation profile. A local-first companion extension stores identity packets and performs handshake/disclosure with compatibility evaluation. SessionGlyph carries the work; SymID carries the identity.

What Exists Today

✓Protocol specification complete (v0.1 / v0.3.2)
✓Local-first companion extension prototype stores identity packets
✓Handshake and disclosure protocol defined
✓Compatibility evaluation and scope clarification specified
✓Automation plan documented

//What It Does Not Prove

What this project does not prove.

✗Local-first prototype only
✗Client-side encrypted synchronization not built
✗No deployment or independent audit
✗Cross-platform integration not demonstrated

PROTOTYPE

Artifact: symid-companion-extension

Version: v0.1

Environment: Local development (unpacked extension)

Date: 2026-08

Result:

Protocol specified (v0.1 / v0.3.2). Companion extension prototype stores identity packets locally and implements handshake/disclosure with compatibility evaluation.

//Verification Boundary

Local-first prototype only. Client-side encrypted synchronization not built. No deployment or independent audit. Cross-platform integration not demonstrated.
