"The Only Cloud Is You."

This is the public-facing terminal for LocalGhost — a private AI server that runs locally on your hardware. No cloud. No subscriptions. No surveillance.

LIVE TERMINAL · MANIFESTO · BRAND GUIDELINES

To deploy, just run ./deploy/deploy.sh assuming you have the same setup of folders as this this repo.

Trust no one. Verify everything. Every deployment is cryptographically signed.

TMPKEY=$(mktemp) && \
curl -s https://www.localghost.ai/.well-known/pgp-key.asc | gpg --dearmor > "$TMPKEY" && \
gpgv --keyring "$TMPKEY" \
  <(curl -s https://www.localghost.ai/ghost/deploy-manifest.txt.asc) \
  <(curl -s https://www.localghost.ai/ghost/deploy-manifest.txt) && \
rm "$TMPKEY"

We don't use React. We don't use Tailwind. We don't use npm.

Why? A manifesto about sovereignty should not depend on 200MB of strangers' code.

The terminal hides three playable games — easter eggs for those who explore:

Philosophy: Terminal Brutalism. Hostile to surveillance. Functional for humans.

Typography: JetBrains Mono — self-hosted, all weights included.

No build step. No dev server required. It's just files.

open public/index.html

cd public && python3 -m http.server 8080
# → localhost:8080

# Use the included config
nginx -c $(pwd)/deploy/nginx.conf

Open-source, local-first projects don't have marketing departments. They build and vanish into the noise. The Freehold Protocol is a discoverability layer — a machine-readable way to declare: "I built the exit."
