SysAdmin 7d5f9cc246 chore(scaffold): initial SilverMetal program scaffold
Cross-platform privacy-hardening program. Two-layer product:
- SilverLABS Application Stack (cross-platform spine)
- Platform Hardening Profiles (per-OS, tier-honest)

Platforms: Linux (Debian/Kicksecure), Android (Pixel/Samsung/Moto/generic),
Windows (LTSC IoT), macOS (profile), iOS (MDM profile). Each flavour has
both a preflashed hardware SKU path and a self-apply "harden your existing
device" path.

Includes umbrella docs (README + threat-model, design-principles,
platform-matrix, roadmap, trust-model), per-platform and per-stack-
component README stubs, .gitignore, LICENSE.

Linux v1 ships first; Stack v1 = Browser + VPN + Sync.

SilverKeys

Status: v1.1 (planning)

Zero-knowledge password + 2FA + key manager. Synced via SilverSync.

Approach (tentative — to be finalised)

Most likely fork Bitwarden (server + clients are open source, mature, well-audited) and:

  • Replace the account model with our SilverLABS account number
  • Replace the server with one running on SilverSync infrastructure
  • Strip telemetry / phone-home in clients
  • Re-skin to SilverMetal branding

Alternative: lightweight KeePassXC-derived client with our own sync layer. Simpler but less feature-rich.

Non-negotiables

  • Zero-knowledge: server cannot read vault content
  • Argon2id KDF for master password
  • Multi-device sync via SilverSync
  • TOTP / WebAuthn / hardware-key (YubiKey) support
  • Open source clients
  • No telemetry

Per-platform clients

  • Linux: native (Tauri / Rust) or web-app
  • Android: Bitwarden-fork rebranded
  • Windows: Bitwarden-fork rebranded
  • macOS: Bitwarden-fork rebranded
  • iOS: Bitwarden-fork rebranded
  • Browser extension: SilverBrowser-bundled by default; available for non-SilverBrowser too

Migration

Bitwarden vault import works out-of-the-box with the fork. Documented procedures for migration from:

  • 1Password
  • LastPass
  • Chrome / Safari / Firefox saved passwords
  • KeePassXC
