SPEC-01
ENGINEERING
Apple Silicon performance
MLX, Metal, and Accelerate. Compute-bound workloads tuned to the
unified memory architecture and core topology of the device.
- MLX inference graphs · custom Metal kernels
- P/E core scheduling · Neural Engine handoff
- Quantization-aware ML pipelines
SPEC-02
PRODUCTION
Native macOS applications
Swift, SwiftUI, and AppKit. Apps that feel like the operating system
they ship on — menu bar to background service.
- SwiftUI · AppKit interop · async/await
- XPC services · LaunchAgents · LSUIElement
- Codesigning · notarization · sparkle updates
SPEC-03
HARDENED
Security architecture
Secure Enclave attestation, Hardened Runtime, code signing, and
SIP-aware deployment — anchored to public-blockchain commitments so
trust is verifiable end-to-end without a central authority.
- P-256 attestation · DeviceCheck integration
- Public-chain anchored attestations · on-chain Merkle roots
- Keychain · cryptographic envelope formats
- Sandbox · entitlements · TCC review
SPEC-04
PROTOCOL
Distributed systems
Coordination, cryptographic verification, and protocol design for
peer-to-peer networks of Apple Silicon nodes.
- libp2p · QUIC transport · NAT traversal
- Transparency logs · Merkle commitments
- Reputation graphs · slashing economics
