Boomerang's On-Site Agent Is Now Rust
The venue-side streaming agent got rewritten in Rust, with camera quality auto-detection. Maintenance mode is where the real work happens.

Entries, newest first
Closing the Age Gate, Twice
Two hardening passes closed the under-18 content surface end to end, backed by a network-free NSFW classifier and tests on every moderation predicate. The second pass caught the bypasses the first audit missed.
DominionOS Source Moves to CogForgeLabs
Our from-scratch Rust OS now lives under the org, next to everything else. Capability security, content-addressed storage, deterministic replay. Go poke at it.
The Trust Overhaul
We showed this site to three frontier models and asked if they'd hire us. The verdicts stung, so we acted on them: a real Hire Us section, this rebuilt lab log, and every stat we couldn't back got deleted. Directive 01 applies to us too.
Through The Ropes: Sponsor Page Rebuild
Client work doesn't end at launch. We rebuilt the sponsor page around the new 10-week program and renamed pledges to sponsorships throughout the platform.
Every Driver, Validated on a Real Boot
Public-release prep for the OS: driver hardening, consistent naming, and a USB mass-storage fix in QEMU. Then every driver got validated on real hardware, not just the emulator.
Memory Sliders That Do What They Say
Richer included memory defaults, deeper memory as a priced upgrade, and a pile of roleplay rendering and continue-button fixes.
A Week Inside the RFB Protocol
RealVNC's proprietary 4.x/5.x banner now negotiates, a fast Raw decoder paints the framebuffer in time, and the scoreboard overlay renders 10 to 50x faster. Enterprise scoreboard servers finally connect.
The Great De-Firebasing
Between July 3 and 6, nine apps moved off Firebase and bespoke Stripe onto HiveMind: one account, one credit wallet, one AI gateway, one mail plane, all Cloudflare-native. The migration docs are in every repo.
Launch Week Is Bug Week
A day of small fixes: marketplace metadata, keyless engine defaults, PKCS#1 App keys (the format GitHub actually issues), and a composite Action that loads properly.
Boomerang Learns to Distribute Itself
Release and CI workflows, a desktop update feed, agent autostart, and self-update over the cloud channel. The control plane moved from ephemeral SQLite to persistent Postgres while we were at it.
WebSwarm Re-Platformed and Live
The persona-agent testing swarm moved off Firebase onto our own platform: D1, R2, queues, metered LLM egress, and a 150-credit welcome grant so you can try it without a card.
