DOTTIE-OS is a local-first System One sidecar from ARXIVIQ for tools and pair-programming. It takes state and typed questions and returns Choice, Score, or Noul outputs, with the probability named as a probability. It runs on the user's GPU with Laya as the local System One champion. The site states it is not a chat bot.

The product exposes three primitives. Choice returns one closed action for a pair-programmer step: execute, escalate, halt, or other. Score returns an ordered severity level for the step in front of the user. Noul returns P(safe), the probability the next action is safe to take. The sidecar picks a label instead of drafting a paragraph to parse.

Data handling is described as HF → factory → stamp. Inputs are public Hugging Face plus observed pair-programming traces, with no synthetic champion rows. The Choice/Score/Noul factory curates honest HELPER rows and Nimble contrastive flips (≤8 words) into staging JSONL. A fine-tune is followed by a held-out bench, and Cam stamps before anything is champion; nothing auto-promotes.

The site says this is not a chat model or a chat train control plane; the verb is decide, using calibrated probabilities rather than a transcript. It also lists refusals: synthetic rows do not train a champion, checkpoints do not auto-promote, and bots do not approve merge or ship. DOTTIE is on GitHub, and the starter is a solo personal project with no connection to employer, built with public/free-tier only, hosted on Vercel Hobby, and MIT licensed.
