What this is

The first physical instantiation of the Privacy Value Model. A browser agent that slashes tracking cookies, negotiates privacy terms on behalf of a human, and builds verifiable reputation through sustained privacy-respecting behaviour. The Swordsman is the equation made concrete — every cookie slash is a sovereignty transition, every MyTerms negotiation is an edge traversal, and the armor progression is a lived calibration of the edge value function T(π).

The architecture in browser terms

The Swordsman operates across six layers. Users interact with Layers 0–2 (feels like web2). Layers 3–5 are web3 infrastructure running underneath from Day 1 — because privacy cannot be retrofitted.

Layer 0: Browser UX. The cursor becomes a blade. Visual indicator of active privacy. Familiar interaction patterns, zero blockchain complexity visible to the user.

Layer 1: Cookie slashing. The core action. When a user visits a site, the Swordsman reads the site's tracking intent, compares against the user's privacy preferences, and slashes non-essential cookies. Each slash is a sovereignty transition — a move from a surveilled configuration toward a more sovereign one on the 64-vertex lattice.
