Field notes
OpenARI describes a local verification model in which applications apply explicit trust policies and resource limits to supported image evidence. Its current CLI only reports preliminary container hints and cannot authenticate images, while the site outlines future-facing work across language SDKs, capture research, image uploads, and cryptography. The homepage identifies the project as independent, Apache-2.0 licensed, and unaffiliated with Apple.
