Vortex Alpha v0.2 - The UI/Design Overhaul

Vortex Alpha v0.2 - The UI/Design Overhaul

Vortex Alpha v0.2 is the first release where the simulator stops looking like a collection of governance screens and starts feeling like one designed civic system. This update is a full UI and design overhaul across the Vortex app surface. It rebuilds navigation, visual hierarchy, theme identity, proposal cards,

Vortex Dev Log #16 - The biggest update so far

Vortex Dev Log #16 - The biggest update so far

The biggest update so far but unseen to users! This week we concentrated on refactoring Vortex. Actually the refactor was going on for a month Vortex has moved through a lot of product surface quickly: proposals, chambers, vetoes, delegation, factions, CM, active-governor status, feed, profiles, and era transitions. That

Validator Fee Structure Update and Vortex Governance Rewards

Validator Fee Structure Update and Vortex Governance Rewards

Dear Human Nodes, With the launch of the Vortex Simulator (or proto-Vortex) and the invitation for Human Nodes to begin their journey toward participating as governors of Humanode - holding voting power in Humanode’s decisions and gaining a real voice in its future - we will be implementing several changes

Vortex Dev Log #11 — Delegation, Final Proposal Outcomes, and Release Hardening

Vortex Dev Log #11 — Delegation, Final Proposal Outcomes, and Release Hardening

TL;DR This update turns several important parts of Vortex Simulator from “working in principle” into something that feels much closer to a real product.

Vortex-simulator (Proto-Vortex) Alpha v0.2 is live

Vortex Sim Dev Log #4 — Cognitocratic Measure + Governing Tiers

Vortex Sim Dev Log #4 — Cognitocratic Measure + Governing Tiers

TL;DR We added Cognitocratic Measure scoring (CM/LCM/MCM/ACM) with chamber‑multiplier voting and implemented governing tier progression + proposal type gating across the API and UI. My Governance + Profile now surface tier progress, chamber rosters show tiers, and proposal creation is blocked with clear, tier‑aware reasons when

Vortex Sim Dev Log #3 - Refactor Stabilization + Chamber Threads/Chat

Vortex Sim Dev Log #3 - Refactor Stabilization + Chamber Threads/Chat

TL;DR Chamber internals are canonical (roster/pipeline/metadata), membership gating is enforced, and chambers now ship threads + WebRTC chat with member‑only writes. The server codebase is cleaner and more predictable, the test suite runs under rstest, and the web client is aligned with the Hono API (pool/vote/

Proto-Vortex Update Jan 14

# Dev Log #2 — Repo Split (Web / Server / Docs) Date: 2026-01-14 TL;DR This update turns the simulator from a “single repo that contains everything” into three focused repos: * humanode-network/vortex-simulator-web — UI only * humanode-network/vortex-simulator-server — backend only (API + DB + tests) * humanode-network/vortex-

Updates to the proto-Vortex flow

Each day, we learn something new, especially during the proof-of-concept phase of a project. After the first two rounds of proto-Vortex, the co-founders of Humanode got together to review the process and map out the changes needed to better reflect the actual flow of how Vortex
