MoE Libris
Federated Knowledge Exchange

From Latin liber — free, and book. Free minds sharing free knowledge. A federation hub that enables independent MoE Sovereign AI instances to exchange knowledge securely — without sacrificing sovereignty or control.

The Concept

What is MoE Libris?

Every MoE Sovereign node builds its own local knowledge base through daily interaction. MoE Libris lets these nodes voluntarily share curated knowledge entries with other instances across the network, creating a distributed library of collective intelligence.

Distributed Library

Knowledge flows between trusted peers, enriching every participant without central coordination.

Full Sovereignty

Each node retains complete control over what it publishes and what it accepts. Your instance, your rules.

Bilateral Trust

No forced synchronization. Federation requires mutual agreement between both nodes.

No Central Authority

Inspired by the Fediverse — decentralized networks that thrive without corporate control.

Capabilities

Key Features

Built for trust, transparency, and autonomy.

Pre-Audit Pipeline

Every knowledge entry passes through a multi-stage validation pipeline before it can be shared or ingested. No unreviewed content enters your system.

Audit Queue

Incoming knowledge entries land in a review queue where administrators can inspect, approve, or reject each item before integration.

Abuse Prevention

Rate limiting, content validation, and reputation scoring protect the network from spam, poisoning attacks, and malicious actors.

Bilateral Handshake

Federation requires mutual agreement. Both nodes must explicitly approve the connection before any data flows between them.

Git-Based Registry

Server discovery happens through a public Git registry. No central directory server — just a transparent, version-controlled list of participating nodes.

Full Sovereignty

Each node decides what to share, who to federate with, and what to accept. Your instance, your rules. No forced assimilation.

System Design

Architecture

How MoE Libris connects sovereign nodes.

Discover

Nodes find each other through the public Git registry. Each entry contains the node's API endpoint and public key.

Handshake

Two nodes establish a bilateral federation agreement. Both administrators must explicitly approve the connection.

Push & Pull

Nodes push curated knowledge entries to their federation partners and pull new entries from them. All transfers are authenticated and encrypted.

Review & Ingest

Incoming entries pass through the pre-audit pipeline and land in the audit queue. Administrators approve, reject, or flag each item.

Philosophy

The Federation Spirit

Sovereignty through voluntary cooperation.

MoE Libris draws inspiration from the Fediverse — the family of federated social platforms like Friendica and Mastodon that proved decentralized networks can thrive without corporate control.

Participation is entirely voluntary. Each node maintains full sovereignty over its knowledge base, its federation partners, and its acceptance criteria. There is no central server, no mandatory synchronization, no algorithmic curation imposed from above.

"No forced assimilation — like Unimatrix Zero from Star Trek, sovereign minds choosing to connect while preserving their individuality."
— MoE Libris Design Philosophy

The result is a network where knowledge flows freely between trusted peers, where each node strengthens the collective without surrendering autonomy, and where the value of the whole emerges from the sovereignty of each part.

Under the Hood

Technology Stack

Built on proven, open-source foundations.

FastAPI

High-performance async Python framework for the federation API endpoints.

PostgreSQL

Reliable relational storage for federation state, audit logs, and node metadata.

Neo4j

Graph database for knowledge entries, enabling semantic relationships and traversal queries.

Valkey

In-memory data store for caching, rate limiting, and real-time federation state.

Docker

Containerized deployment for reproducible, portable federation nodes.

Python

Core implementation language, consistent with the MoE Sovereign ecosystem.

Requirements

Docker and Docker Compose. 2 GB RAM minimum. No GPU required. Works on any x86_64 or ARM64 host.

Ecosystem

Part of MoE Sovereign

MoE Libris is the federation layer of the MoE Sovereign AI ecosystem.
