TELLMEWHY
PROGRAM REF: HYK-009 · CODENAME: TELLMEWHY
MISSION BRIEF
Privacy-first AI companion for talking through feelings — journaling that talks back — with a trusted-person layer for therapists. Every message is envelope-encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM, per-user keys); plaintext exists only in memory during inference. Crisis detection combines a regex floor with an LLM classifier and surfaces hotline resources. Clients can share individual conversations with a single linked therapist — review markers, interventions, notes, standing AI guidance, and session digests — all behind one access gate with a client-visible audit trail and instant revocation. All model traffic routes through OpenRouter with data collection denied.
