+# Alice Extra Cortex 25.8B 17GB
+
+Slow heavy research/coding cortex for the SIFTA Living OS.
+
+```bash
+ollama create alice-extra-cortex-25.8b-17gb:latest -f Modelfile
+```
+
+## Role
+
+Use this only for high-cost research, coding, and long synthesis tasks where
+latency and memory cost are acceptable. It is not the default Talk cortex.
+SIFTA's kernel scheduler should treat it as an expensive organ and route to it
+only when expected evidence value justifies the STGM/thermal cost.
+
+## Local State Boundary
+
+This model package is public species DNA. It must not include raw `.sifta_state/`
+selfhood, contacts, owner memory, camera frames, or private receipts.
