CIVIC SUITE · BUNDLE 14 + PRO PACK V2
A civic suite that respects you.
Fifteen civic surfaces inside HYVE Ether OS, designed for the citizen and the civil servant alike. Login.gov SSO, DD-214 vault, tax organizer, federal compliance hooks — all running on a sovereignty-default architecture where the relay endpoint is empty until you point it somewhere yourself.
SOVEREIGNTY DEFAULT · OPERATOR-CONTROLLED RELAY
HYVE_RELAY_URL is operator-controlled and defaults to empty. The OS will not reach any relay endpoint — civic, federal, marketplace, or otherwise — unless you point it at one. Civic and federal adopters can route relay traffic at customer-owned infrastructure, with customer-managed encryption keys.
Five things shipping in the current build.
Each landed in Bundle 14 + Pro Pack v2 (2026-05-08).
Login.gov OIDC + PKCE
Native federal SSO. The standard authentication flow for U.S. federal civic services, integrated end-to-end without a third-party broker.
DD-214 Vault
Veteran service records stored locally, encrypted with vault-derived keys. Pair with the Veteran surface for benefits navigation.
Tax Organizer (1099 / W-2)
Encrypted local organizer for tax documents. Never uploaded to a third-party tax service unless you export explicitly.
Federal Compliance Installer
Phased installer at /opt/hyve/fed-compliance/ for civic and federal adopters — opt-in audit forwarding, SBOM attestation, agency registration.
Operator-Controlled Relay
HYVE_RELAY_URL defaults to empty. The OS reaches a relay only when you point it at one. Civic deployments can target customer-owned infrastructure.
META SURFACE · UMBRELLA
Civic
The umbrella surface that ties the fourteen civic sub-surfaces together. One nav, one identity, one vault — every civic interaction lives in one place on your machine.
Fourteen sub-surfaces.
Each surface is a first-class part of the OS — its own iconography, its own keyboard shortcut, its own slot in the universal search.
Tax
Local-first organizer for W-2, 1099, and other tax documents. Encrypted with vault-derived keys; never auto-uploaded to a tax service unless you export explicitly.
Veteran
Benefits navigation, claim filing, and the DD-214 records vault. Login.gov SSO into VA services where supported.
Identity (Civil)
Civic identity layer for verified citizen interactions — Login.gov OIDC plus credit-bureau freeze workflow plus IRS identity verification path.
Records
Vital records, deeds, court filings — search, request, and archive with citation trails.
Civil Servant
Federal-employee tooling: TSP, OPM, ethics filings, and case-management primitives that respect the same sovereignty model citizens get.
Compliance Helper
FedRAMP / CMMC / NIST audit-evidence collection. Read-only mappings of HYVE controls to compliance requirements; never makes claims on your behalf.
Community
Town halls, local elections, volunteer coordination. Pulls from open civic data where published.
Emergency
FEMA alerts, 72-hour kit checklist, hazard maps, evacuation routes. Works offline.
Health
Medicare/Medicaid, ACA enrollment, vaccine records, MyChart-style aggregation. Encrypted; you decide what gets exported.
Legal
Pro-se court forms, USC + CFR navigation, legal-aid referrals. Not a substitute for counsel, but a real tool for navigating without it.
Discover
Federal benefits and grants discovery by jurisdiction. No tracking, no profile sold.
Translate
Multi-language UI translation, civic-form translation, and Section 508 accessibility audit. On-device where models fit.
Small Biz
SBA, SAM.gov, IRS EIN, USPTO trademark — full compliance organizer for licenses, registrations, sales tax, and employee documentation.
Student
FAFSA, StudentAid, Pell, 529, PSLF, IEP/504. Designed for the student doing this for themselves, not for an institution.
PROFESSIONAL LIGHT · PROFESSIONAL DARK
Themed for the room.
Government desks and enterprise security operations centers do not look like a hacker's basement. The Professional Light and Professional Dark themes ship as part of Pro Pack v2 — sixty-six unique surface icons each, full glyph-on-tile coverage, slate accents on white-ish or near-black backgrounds. The shell is the same; the dress is different. Themed screenshots will appear here once the OS team sends the asset slice.
Built on the same patent-pending substrate.
The Civic Suite inherits everything that makes HYVE Ether OS different: post-quantum encryption on the bus, deterministic decision orchestration via Omega, hardware kill switches at the kernel module level, Reed-Solomon shard recovery for archives, and the same 48 patent-pending technologies behind the stack. Civic buyers get the same sovereignty story consumer buyers get — with the additional civic-specific features above.
See /security for the full security posture and /patents for the complete patent-pending list.
FOUNDING ACCESS · CLOSES OCTOBER 1, 2026
Civic adoption starts with founding access.
Civic-specific Wave 3 endpoints (agency self-registration, audit forwarding, multi-tenant isolation) ship between July and August 2026. Founding-access purchase today secures the same locked $499 price for life, plus first-look builds during the Bundle 14+ release cadence.
