UNSC protocol demands that prototypes such as Kalmiya must be destroyed promptly after their material goes into general use. Dr. Halsey intentionally disobeyed this order, however. She kept Kalmiya around, likely because her previous AIs, [[Déjà]] and Cortana, had been reassigned—to an unknown position in Déjà's case; and as [[John-117]]'s attaché and the shipboard AI of the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} in Cortana's.{{Ref/Reuse|FSP126}} | UNSC protocol demands that prototypes such as Kalmiya must be destroyed promptly after their material goes into general use.

Kalmiya resided in Halsey's office in [[ONI]]'s [[CASTLE Base]]. She was left there with Dr. Halsey during the [[Fall of Reach]], and proved very useful in helping Halsey and her [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartans]] escape the facility. Kalmiya was a potential alternative vessel for the Forerunner data found at the [[Babd Catha Forerunner complex]]. However, Halsey wasn't confident trusting humanity's only hope for salvation to an obsolete AI, and instead opted to split Cortana for the task.{{Ref/Reuse|journal}} | Kalmiya resided in Halsey's office in [[ONI]]'s [[CASTLE Base]].

Kalmiya was somewhat disturbed when Dr. Halsey used a hidden fail-safe to destroy [[Colonel]] [[James Ackerson]]'s personal AI, [[Araqiel]], and asked if such a fail-safe was included in her own code. Dr. Halsey carefully told her—as Kalmiya would possibly stress-analyze her voice to verify that she wasn't lying—that not every AI had the fail-safe, which was the truth, just not the whole truth. Kalmiya had to be destroyed as part of [[Operation: WHITE GLOVE]] to prevent the Covenant from collecting any information in the base. Dr. Halsey activated the fail-safe in her [[Riemann matrix]], revealing to her that not every AI has such a fail-safe: It is a protocol implemented only in the ones that matter. Before ending service, she told Halsey it was an honor to work with her.{{Ref/Reuse|FSP135}} Despite her destruction, some of Kalmiya's subroutines and independent processes remained active in CASTLE Base's surviving data cores for years to come | Kalmiya was somewhat disturbed when Dr. Halsey used a hidden fail-safe to destroy [[Colonel]] [[James Ackerson]]'s personal AI, [[Araqiel]], and asked if such a fail-safe was included in her own code.
