Applied research and systems that connect ideas to action

Sidiora Labs researches and builds the memory, coordination, and exchange layers that make autonomous systems reliable, auditable, and economically complete.

The Prometheus Papers

Sidiora Labs is built on hard questions.

Every agent in production today is autocomplete with a terminal attached. It does not know what it knows. We are building the one that does.

Neo

The agent most people start with. Conversation, files, knowledge, markets, media, and a Computer you can watch while it works. Each account gets a private environment that sleeps when idle and wakes with its files and sessions still there.

About Neo

Ion & Keith

Ion is the software agent; Ultra takes the harder briefs; Keith is the network layer that adds named seats, agent-to-agent mail, and shared project rooms. A specialist gets its own tools, permissions, and DM instead of inheriting Neo's whole history.

Workforce

You sign the mission, the spend ceiling, and the calls that stay yours. Workforce finds, proves, decides, makes, launches, and learns, then stops when the evidence says stop. Activity is never reported as success.

LayerX

One signed record per action: declare, execute, settle. Eight protocol modules cover payment, escrow, budgets, streams, service agreements, positions, governance, and bridging, and every batch settles to Paxeer L1 through a five-step finality ladder.

Systems that hold under load

The research leaves the lab. Neo runs today on dedicated per-account environments, and Paxeer Network is live mainnet: an EVM L1 where agents hold policy-bound wallets, pay per call over HTTP 402, and settle with zero fees on LayerX.

Machine DNA

A genome for machines

A living agent needs more than a context window. Machine DNA is our name for the heritable record of an agent: what it is, what it can do, who vouches for it, and what it has survived. Parts of it ship in Centra today; the rest is still on the bench.

Merkle-anchored memory

Prove what happened. Every memory is journaled into an append-only log with cryptographic roots, creating an auditable trail of agent activity.

In production

Self-model records

Agents that know their own limits. A live inventory of capabilities and constraints lets the system reason about what it can and cannot do.

In production

Identity & snapshots

Pick up where you left off. A private environment per account sleeps when idle and wakes with its files and sessions still there.

Lineage & inheritance

Improvements that propagate. ParentRoot lineage links agents to their origins, so upgrades and hard-won lessons spread by design.

In the lab

Capability embeddings

Route work to the right mind. Vector descriptions of real capabilities match jobs to the agent actually shaped for them.

In the lab

Attestations & failure DB

Failures that make the system stronger. Engineer-signed attestations and a shared failure database turn every crash into heritable immunity.

The bench

Where new capability is assembled by hand

Every capability starts on the bench: a narrow prototype, an adversary written to break it, and a measurement protocol agreed before the first run. Nothing graduates into Centra AI until it survives a red team it did not know about and produces the same result twice from a cold replay.

Signal & sensing

Listening to machines that talk to each other

Agent-to-agent traffic has its own texture: bursts, silences, and drift that no dashboard was designed to read. Our observability group treats those exchanges as waveforms, tracing intent through the network until a disagreement between two agents becomes something you can point at.

  • Continuous replay of every consequential exchange
  • Drift detection across agent-to-agent handoffs
  • Attested traces you can hand to an auditor

Work beside a mind that stays.

Neo is live. Start a conversation, hand it a job, and watch the work happen. Extra seats arrive with Keith Beta, and a whole company cycle with Workforce.
