Alelyon
What’s new

Always improving.

Every update to the Alelyon app, newest first.

13 changes

The sign-in screen's gold, on every page

  • Panels, menus and cards are edged with a fine gold line, and a primary button is a bar of polished gold, as on the sign-in screen.
  • Buttons and tabs are dark behind a gold edge that brightens under the pointer; the chosen tab is washed gold, and text boxes turn gold when you type in them.
  • Each page's title is set larger over a short gold rule, and the names of its parts are in small, spaced gold capitals.

Background commands

  • Lattice's agent can start a command that keeps running, such as a dev server or a watcher, and check on it later. You approve it as any command; the card says it keeps running.
  • Its card shows "background" and a Stop button while it runs. Closing Lattice or archiving the chat ends it.

Hosted open models

  • Models… now lists services that run open models for you: OpenRouter, Hugging Face, Together, Groq, Fireworks, DeepInfra and Cerebras.
  • Sign in with OpenRouter in your browser, or paste a key for the others (Get a key opens the right page). Then browse their open models and choose one for Lattice's chat or Sinai.

Settings over any page

  • Settings now open as a panel over the page you are on, like Claude Code's, so everything behind it stays in view. Open them from the account menu.
  • Search finds a setting by what it does. Esc or a click outside closes the panel.

Bring your own model

  • Models… on the Sinai page lists the models this PC can use: GGUF files in your models folder and the OpenAI-compatible endpoints you set up, each saying whether it is ready.
  • Add a GGUF file… links a model you already have into the models folder (nothing is copied or downloaded). Add an endpoint… takes an address, a model name and, if it needs one, a key, which goes to Windows Credential Manager and is not shown again.
  • One click makes a model the one Sinai's page or Lattice's chat uses. Without Sinai's mind installed, Sinai's page talks to your model, its face speaking the answer, and says which model is answering.

Claude Code and Codex in Lattice

  • Lattice's chat can now use Claude Code and Codex on your own accounts: your Claude subscription and your ChatGPT plan. Install them on the Tools page, then pick one in the model list.
  • They work in the chat's folder with their own tools. Whatever they ask to do, Lattice asks you first.

Research: sharper subjects

  • In a large subject, papers that only a couple of others cite, and that talk about something else, are kept "on the edge": they stay in the subject under their own filter, and no longer crowd its map, threads and ideas.
  • The same paper listed twice with a tag such as "(Abstract Only)" is now one paper.

Mention files with @

  • Type @ in the box you type in to pick a file of the open folder. Lattice's agent is given the files you mention along with your message, and a note says which ones it got.

Images in your messages

  • Attach a screenshot or another picture to a message for Lattice's agent: press Image beside the box you type in, or drop a PNG or JPEG file on Lattice. Up to four, each up to 5 MB.
  • The agent's model sees them with your words. When the model runs off this computer, Lattice asks each time before sending images, since it cannot check a picture for passwords or keys.

Plan first

  • In Ask mode, Lattice's agent can look around and then propose a plan for the change you asked for. Nothing changes until you approve it.
  • Approve carries the plan out in the same chat, in Agent mode. Keep planning sets it aside so you can ask for changes.

The agent's to-do list

  • On longer work, Lattice's agent keeps a list of its steps above the box you type in, so you can see what it has done and what it is doing now.

Artifacts

  • Lattice's agent can save a document beside the chat, such as a plan, a report or a page, and update it as it works. Each one shows as a card in the chat with its version.
  • Open shows it in a tab of its own: Markdown formatted (or as its source), every version it has had, and Copy.
  • Preview opens a page or a picture the agent made in a separate browser that has no internet access and none of your sign-ins.

The official build

  • Alelyon comes in two builds. The official one also replays a receipt's number, width and budget on the project's own engine; the open one checks the signature, the data and the records, says plainly that the replay engine is not in it, and never marks a receipt verified.
  • In the open build, Sinai's face and page are there but its mind is not: the page says so instead of waiting for it. The speech engine is read when it is running, and voice enrolment is in the official build.

Research keeps up

  • Gathering papers runs in the background on its own and saves after every round: closing Alelyon, or Alelyon closing unexpectedly, no longer loses a run, and reopening the Research page shows it still going.
  • The Research page no longer keeps redrawing while a run goes, which could make Alelyon freeze or close on some graphics drivers.
  • Watch a subject daily or weekly: while Alelyon is open, it adds what is new to the subject on its own, using only a few hundred OpenAlex credits each time. Watching is off until you switch it on.
  • Update now brings a subject up to date at once.
  • Your hub shows what the updates brought: new papers first, then a count of older papers they found for the first time.

Live data

  • Pages update themselves when what they show changes: the services, the fleet, the databases, the transcript library, the voiceprint, the sign-in service and the kit's records. The Check again, Refresh, Look again and Read now buttons are gone.
  • A small mark on each says it is live and when it last changed, or why its source cannot be read.

Plugins

  • Add a plugin from its folder on the Tools page: a folder in Claude Code's plugin layout, such as Alelyon's own. While it is on, its commands (/plugin:name) and skills join yours in every chat.
  • A plugin's MCP servers start only if you copy them into your settings, and each asks you first. Its hooks never run.
  • Switch a plugin off, or take it off the list; its folder is never deleted.

A quieter window

  • A page that is not changing is no longer drawn again and again: the Overview's service check no longer flickers its button every ten seconds, and spinners turn only where you can see them.
  • Long lists in the Lattice IDE (the Explorer and search results) build only the rows on screen, so a large folder scrolls smoothly.

Suggested tasks

  • While it works, Lattice's agent can suggest a separate task it noticed on the way, such as a stale README or a missing test. It shows as a card in the chat, and nothing happens until you choose.
  • Start opens a new chat in the same folder that begins with the task's prompt; Show prompt lets you read it first. Dismiss sets the task aside.

Web pages in Lattice's browser

  • The account menu's and Settings' web pages (your account details and security, creating an account, help signing in, the Terms and the Privacy Notice) now open in Lattice's own browser, each in a new tab, and the agent keeps its own page.
  • Prefer your own browser? Choose it in Settings, under This PC, or use the small arrow beside any link to open that page there once.
  • Signing in with Google, GitHub or another provider still uses your own browser.

Research hub, maps and gaps

  • The Research page now opens on your hub: ideas to pursue, papers to read next, the newest work, and subjects you could start, ranked toward what you search, open and save. What it learns from stays on this PC.
  • Each subject has a map of how its papers connect: threads of related work in colour, the most influential papers larger. Click a paper to see what it cites, what cites it, and its closest neighbours.
  • A Gaps tab shows where a subject may have open questions: lines of work that rarely cite each other, older ideas recent work stopped citing, combinations nobody has tried, and important papers the subject is missing. Finding gaps uses no OpenAlex credits.
  • AI models and agents can use the same archive: copy the MCP setup from the Research page into Lattice's Tools page or another MCP client.

Research

  • A Research page gathers every paper on a subject: it searches OpenAlex and arXiv, then follows citations backward and forward until nothing new turns up, so older papers that use different words are found too.
  • Each paper shows why it is included: it matches your concepts, or the subject's own papers cite it. A filter shows the papers found only through citations.
  • OpenAlex needs a free key for real use. The page has a button that opens OpenAlex's key page; paste the key in, and Alelyon keeps it in Windows Credential Manager and shows how much of today's budget is left.
  • A run shows its progress and can be stopped. When it finishes, the page says whether it was complete and estimates how many relevant papers may still be missing.

Commands and skills

  • Type / at the start of the chat's composer to run a command: a saved prompt from your own commands folder, or from a trusted folder's .claude/commands, .cursor/commands or .lattice/commands. Its text goes into the composer, ready for you to read and send.
  • Skills are folders with a SKILL.md that tell the agent how to do a kind of task. The agent sees their names in every chat and reads one when a task calls for it. Yours go in your skills folder; a trusted folder's .claude/skills and .lattice/skills count too.
  • The Tools page lists your skills and commands, and where to add them.

Projects

  • Projects group your chats in the Lattice IDE. Pick one in Chats to see its chats; a new chat then joins it, and the open chat can be added to it.
  • A project's page holds instructions for the agent and reference files (text files on this PC) that go with every turn of its chats, a folder it can open, and the model a new chat in it starts with.
  • A project is archived, never deleted, and keeps its chats.

Auto mode

  • Auto mode lets the agent use your whole desktop in Agent mode: it sees your screen and uses your mouse and keyboard in any program. Switch it on in the Tools page; Alelyon asks you to confirm first.
  • It posts, sends, edits and deletes without asking. A purchase, a payment, and a sign-in, security or account change still ask you.
  • Ctrl+Alt+End stops the agent at once, from any program.
  • It never acts on Alelyon itself, a password manager or Windows' sign-in prompts, and never types a password.

Connections

  • A Connections page in the Lattice IDE lists Google, Amazon, Amazon Web Services, Instagram, X, Facebook, LinkedIn, GitHub, Outlook and Reddit. Sign in opens the agent's browser at the service's sign-in page, and you sign in yourself.
  • A chat with no folder can now use them: in Agent mode the agent uses its browser and your own MCP servers, and it never touches files or runs commands there.
  • As everywhere, posting, messaging, buying, deleting and account changes ask you first.

Local models get tools

  • The local model (Auto and Local) is checked once, at its first Agent-mode turn, for whether it calls tools well. If it does, it gets the agent's tools, the browser included when it can see; if not, it answers in plain text, and the chat says so.

The agent's browser

  • The agent has a web browser of its own (Microsoft Edge, with its own profile). Switch it on in the Tools page; until then nothing starts it.
  • In Agent mode, with a model that can see images, the agent opens websites, looks at them, and clicks, types and scrolls as a person does.
  • Posting, messaging, buying, deleting and account or consent changes ask you first: a card in the chat, then a confirmation. A click that looks like one of them but was called harmless is refused until the agent says what it is.
  • It never types a password or card details: open its window with Show and sign in to a site yourself. Your sign-ins stay in its profile on this PC.
  • Its screenshots go to the model you chose; with a model off this PC, they leave it.

Tools and MCP servers

  • A Tools page in the Lattice IDE lists the agent's own tools and the MCP servers it can use.
  • Add an MCP server by pasting the entry its instructions give; a server that is a web address is not supported, because it would send your data off this PC.
  • A server runs only after you enable it, and its tools join only Agent mode in a folder you trust. Each call asks you first, unless you choose to always allow that tool.
  • Start, stop or switch off a server, switch single tools on or off, and see its last log lines.
  • Projects can bring their own servers in .lattice/mcp.json, .mcp.json or .cursor/mcp.json; each still waits for you to enable it.
  • The sign-in screen's moving background uses far less of your graphics card: it slows down when nothing stirs it, stops while Alelyon is not the focused window, and a Motion button in its corner (or Settings, Appearance) switches it to a still picture that costs nothing; Alelyon remembers your choice.

Friends

  • Friends: the smiley in the rail opens your friends list — who is online, requests to accept, and one-to-one chat.
  • Add a friend by their exact username. Choose your own username the first time you open Friends.
  • The sign-in screen is a living scene: a carbon-fibre plain under rolling gold fog, which your cursor stirs. Without a graphics card it shows a still gradient instead.
  • The window has no Windows frame any more: its title bar, buttons and edges are Alelyon's own, and the sign-in form sits on the background.

Lattice IDE

  • The Lattice page's Chat is now a Chat and IDE: open a folder, browse and search its files, edit and save them, with the agent beside your code.
  • Your own edits are saved with Ctrl+S, and never over a file that changed on disk since you opened it; files that change what tools and builds do ask first.
  • The agent's changes wait for your review: keep or undo each part, each file, or all of them.
  • A terminal in the bottom panel (Ctrl+J): your own PowerShell, in the folder you have open. Only what you type or paste runs there; the agent cannot type into it.
  • Find and replace in a file (Ctrl+F, Ctrl+H), go to a line (Ctrl+G), and search the whole folder (Ctrl+Shift+F).
  • Ctrl+K: select some lines and say what should change; the agent proposes the edit for you to review.
  • Enter keeps your indentation, Tab indents the way the file already does, Ctrl+/ comments lines out and back in, and Alt+Up and Alt+Down move lines.

Accounts

  • Sign in to your Alelyon account, or keep using Alelyon offline. Google, Hugging Face and LinkedIn sign-in open in your browser.
  • Sign in on this PC by scanning a QR code with a phone that is already signed in.
  • "Stay signed in" keeps your session sealed to your Windows user on this PC.
  • A banner at the top tells you about scheduled maintenance before it happens.
  • The account menu has your account pages, settings, this list, sign out and exit.
  • Settings (Account in the rail) shows who is signed in, whether this PC keeps your session (and forgets it on request), and the sign-in service's state, ways to sign in and notices.
  • A new account made through Google, Hugging Face or LinkedIn asks you to agree to the Terms and the Privacy Notice first.

Sinai

  • Voice enrolment in the Machine: see the voice Sinai knows as yours, record it again, or erase it.
  • Sinai's eyes have their own place in the Machine.
  • The Machine has a memory map and an observatory.
  • The appearance creator turns Sinai's model only while you hold the mouse button down.
  • Alelyon opens without a separate console window.
Choose your beta

One build. Two tiers.

The Windows build downloads with no sign-in, no LinkedIn and no key. Which tier you are in is decided when the app signs in: without a beta key you run everything locally, and a key — issued automatically to a signed-in, LinkedIn-verified account — is what adds Alelyon’s hosted DQC-OS.

Open beta

Run the app without a beta key.

There is one build, and this is the same one the closed beta uses — the tiers differ at sign-in, not at download. Sign in without a beta key and you get the local tier: Terminal UI, Lattice workspace, local calculator, and visible tool traces. A beta key is what adds hosted DQC-OS issuance.

  • Local-first Windows interface
  • Open Alelyon toolkit and source
  • No hosted backend entitlement
The build is not being served yetOpen source toolkit
Closed beta

Verify identity with LinkedIn to unlock hosted DQC-OS.

LinkedIn OpenID Connect verifies control of the LinkedIn account; Alelyon does not scrape your profile. It records a verified access request, and when you verify from your signed-in account page, your hosted DQC-OS key is issued automatically — no review, no queue, nobody to wait for. It does not create or sign you into an Alelyon account, and an anonymous verification issues no key: the key needs a signed-in account to attach to.

  • Everything in the open beta
  • Hosted deterministic DQC-OS calculations, unlocked by your key
  • Signed envelopes and certified answer paths
Sign upLog in

Signing up uses Alelyon’s own email-and-password account flow, which is separate from LinkedIn verification below. One Alelyon account signs you in to every Alelyon application, and it keeps working until you delete it. Verifying with LinkedIn comes next and links that identity to this account.

Verify with LinkedIn

Verify from your signed-in account page and your hosted DQC-OS key is issued automatically — it appears on that page the moment verification completes. Copy it into a password manager and enter it when Alelyon Terminal asks during sign-in; if it expires, opening your account page issues a fresh one.

Available now

Ask, and a person reads it.

Prefer to talk to someone first, or need access sooner than the self-serve paths allow? Ask directly.

Nothing about access waits on a person. The build downloads with no sign-in and no key; a hosted DQC-OS key is issued automatically when a signed-in account verifies with LinkedIn, and it appears on that account’s page. This address is for everything else — questions, problems, deletion requests, and anything a page cannot answer. It is read by a person, so no response time is promised.
