No black box
Context assembly, memory tiers, routing, and consensus are all readable code. You can see precisely what each model is told and why.
Open source
Build in the open, or don't build trust.
Tools that touch your codebase and your model keys should be inspectable. NightCouncil is open source and self-hostable, end to end.

Model-agnostic by design. Swap providers, self-host the engine, or build a client that speaks to the same event stream — nothing ties you to one vendor.
Your code stays yours
The engine runs against your own encrypted vault with your own model keys. The workspace connectors read your repository directly.
An engine, not an app
The desktop and web clients are the first implementations. The same engine can power IDE extensions, CI bots, and CLI tools — all open.
Contribute a council member.
Roles, connectors, and clients are all extensible. Open an issue, propose a role template, or ship a new client on the engine.
