# The Blind Machine

> Governed, content-addressed computation on encrypted data, with local encryption and decryption, signed applications, and offline-verifiable results.

Use this index to discover public documentation and read-only resources. Read
the OpenAPI safety notes and authentication guide before attempting a mutation.
Private keys, secret contexts, raw data, and encoded data are LOCAL ONLY and
must never be uploaded or pasted into an agent prompt.

- [Allele Frequency with Variance](https://blindmachine.org/applications/allele_frequency_with_variance.md): Allele counts plus server-derived variance (multiplicative BFV, depth 1).
- [Carrier Count](https://blindmachine.org/applications/carrier_count.md): Per-variant carrier counts over a sealed cohort (additive BFV).
- [Cohort Histogram](https://blindmachine.org/applications/cohort_histogram.md): Bucketed one-hot counts over any cohort (additive BFV, generic).

## Published Agent Skills

- [Replicate The Blind Machine experiments](https://blindmachine.org/skills/replicate.md): Independently verify the open Blind CLI and reproduce the public replication checks that are currently runnable from the CLI-only repository.
- [Independently review The Blind Machine paper](https://blindmachine.org/skills/review.md): Independently review The Blind Machine paper the way a careful, skeptical referee would — verifying every claim against evidence rather than accepting it.

## Published papers

- [The Blind Machine](https://blindmachine.org/papers/the-blind-machine.json): Compute shared results over encrypted data that remains with its owners, with governance and verifiable receipts. Archival DOI: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.21421426.
