The Connectivity & Branding Sync (Orythix001 Edition)
This release focuses on stabilizing the connection between the VIKI Core and the Hologram Dashboard while standardizing the project's identity under the Orythix001 brand.
🔧 Core Connectivity & Security
- Enforced CORS Governance: Implemented a robust manual CORS header system as an
after_requestfilter to ensure reliable browser-to-server connectivity regardless of the UI port (5173/5174). - Unified Authentication: Synchronized shared
VIKI_API_KEYacross both backend and frontend environments to eliminate 401/403 errors. - Robust Auth Validation: Added hidden character stripping (
.strip()) to API key comparisons to prevent environment-specific newline issues. - Process Management: Optimized server startup logic to prevent port-clash and background process leakage.
🧠 Cognitive & Branding Refactor
- Brand Alignment: Successfully migrated all project contributors and designer references to Orythix001.
- Self-Reflection Update: Updated internal "Curiosity" and "Recall" themes to match the new organizational identity.
- Memory Search Overhaul: Corrected memory search example strings to ensure accurate retrieval patterns for the new brand.
📈 SEO & Discoverability
- Search Engine Optimization: Injected high-value keywords (Cognitive Architecture, Sovereign Intelligence, Orythix) into README and UI metadata.
- Social Preview Ready: Standardized OpenGraph and Twitter card metadata for professional project sharing.
📁 Project Structure
- Worktree Consolidation: Merged all development worktrees (
jih,khb,kqo,rnt) into the main branch and decommissioned secondary worktrees for a cleaner repository structure.
