• haven-player (Gold Standard)
• haven-dapp

• lit_encryption_metadata - JSON string of Lit encryption metadata
• segment_metadata - Multi-segment recording info

Attributes Fields (Public):

• title - Video title
• is_encrypted - Integer 0 or 1
• cid_hash - SHA256 hash of CID
• created_at - ISO8601 timestamp

Pipeline Overview

The Haven pipeline processes videos through these steps:

┌─────────┐   ┌─────────┐   ┌─────────┐   ┌────────┐   ┌──────┐
│ Ingest  │──▶│ Analyze │──▶│ Encrypt │──▶│ Upload │──▶│ Sync │
└─────────┘   └─────────┘   └─────────┘   └────────┘   └──────┘

1. Ingest: Extract metadata, calculate pHash, check duplicates
2. Analyze: Run VLM to generate timestamps and tags (optional)
3. Encrypt: Encrypt with Lit Protocol (optional)
4. Upload: Store on Filecoin via Synapse (optional)
5. Sync: Record metadata on Arkiv blockchain (optional)

Configuration

Configuration is stored in ~/.config/haven/config.toml:

[pipeline]
vlm_enabled = true
encryption_enabled = true
upload_enabled = true
sync_enabled = true

[scheduler]
enabled = true

[js_runtime]
runtime = "deno"

See Configuration Reference for all options.

Environment Variables

All configuration can be overridden via environment variables:

export HAVEN_VLM_ENABLED=true
export HAVEN_SYNAPSE_API_KEY=your-key
export HAVEN_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG

Development

# Install dev dependencies
pip install -e ".[dev]"

# Run tests
pytest

# Type checking
