Helix — AI Digital Identity System
Overview
Helix turns student documents (certs, projects, internships, GitHub) into a connected digital identity — graph, timeline, and evidence-grounded Q&A.

QUICK TEST 1. Open the live site → Register with any email + password (8+ chars) 2. Upload a PDF/DOCX certificate or internship letter 3. Check Documents scores (classification + verifiability) 4. Open Relationship Graph (gaps + Path Coherence button) 5. Open Journey Timeline → Generate resume bullet / LinkedIn post 6. Ask Your Identity → e.g. "Am I ready for a software internship?" 7. Optional: Connect → GitHub → pick repos to import LOCAL SETUP (if needed) cd helix/server && npm i && cp .env.example .env # set DATABASE_URL, JWT_SECRET, GEMINI_API_KEY, CLOUDINARY_* npx prisma db push && npm run dev cd helix/client && npm i && cp .env.example .env # VITE_API_URL=http://localhost:5000/api npm run dev DESIGN DECISIONS • LLM extracts facts; depth scores are deterministic (not “AI vibes”) • Classification, verifiability, coherence kept as separate signals • Skill depth decays without fresh evidence • Docs: README.md · docs/ARCHITECTURE.md · docs/THOUGHT_PROCESS.md · plan.md
