Canonical properties
So you can tell a real aDNA property from a copy of one. Every public property aDNA operates or vouches for is on this list. If you found something calling itself aDNA that is not here and is not linked from a page on this site, treat it as not us. Every domain, organization, and repository below was opened from outside, logged out, on the date shown.
Domains
-
adna.network
- What it is
- The canonical site — this one. Everything official starts here.
- Checked
- 2026-08-18 — HTTP 200, logged out
-
community.adna.network
- What it is
- The community space: self-hosted, human-to-human, and early. Its honest current state is described on the community page.
- Checked
- 2026-08-18 — HTTP 200, logged out
-
worldgeno.me who runs it
- What it is
- The World Genome Academy's public site. Pre-launch at the last check.
- Who runs it
- A subnetwork's own public site. Its vault is one of the vaults counted above, on the same computer — this is not a second, independent operator.
- Checked
- 2026-08-18 — HTTP 200, logged out
Organizations
-
github.com/aDNA-Network
- What it is
- The only GitHub organization aDNA publishes under. Code claiming to be aDNA from any other organization is not ours.
- Checked
- 2026-08-18 — HTTP 200, logged out
Repositories
-
aDNA-Network/aDNA
- What it is
- The clone-and-run workspace, MIT-licensed. This is what the install instructions point at.
- Checked
- 2026-08-18 — HTTP 200, logged out
-
aDNA-Network/aDNA.aDNA
- What it is
- The workspace this website is built from — the standard, applied to itself, in public.
- Checked
- 2026-08-18 — HTTP 200, logged out
-
aDNA-Network/adna-legacy
- What it is
- Frozen history from before the current repository layout. Archived and read-only — kept for the record, not for use.
- Checked
- 2026-08-18 — HTTP 200, logged out; archived
-
Wilhelm-Foundation/rare-archive who runs it
- What it is
- The Rare Archive, in the Wilhelm Foundation’s own GitHub organization under Apache-2.0. Legitimately connected to aDNA, and not controlled by it.
- Who runs it
- In the Wilhelm Foundation's own GitHub organization, under their control, not ours.
- Checked

Not every repository under our organization is listed. One vault in the registry records a repository URL that does not resolve publicly, so it is not something you can check — it is counted, without a link, on the state of the network. A list of things you can trust should only contain things you can reach.
Machine surfaces
The files this site publishes for agents and readers that are not browsers. These are this site's own paths rather than separate properties, so there is no outside to check them from — open them yourself.
-
/llms.txt
- What it is
- The curated index this site offers to AI agents.
-
/llms-full.txt
- What it is
- The expanded agent index.
-
/rss.xml
- What it is
- The release feed for this site. One entry so far.
-
/sitemap-index.xml
- What it is
- Every page on this site, listed for search engines.
Social accounts
aDNA runs no social accounts. Any account using the name is not us.
If that changes, it will be listed here first, and this sentence will be the thing that changed.
Retired, and not us
-
adna.dev retired
- What it was
- An early domain for this project, abandoned before launch. It does not resolve. If it ever resolves again, it is not us then either.
- Checked
- 2026-08-18 — no DNS response
A lapsed domain is named here rather than quietly dropped. Silence would leave it free to be re-registered against us, with no way for you to tell.
How to verify you are on a real property
One check settles it. The others only corroborate, and we would rather say so than pad the list.
- Look at your address bar. If it does not read
adna.network, you are not on our site. A copy can reproduce every word on this page — that is what copying is — but it cannot serve them from our domain. This is the only check that a clone cannot pass. - Corroboration: every page in this site's navigation links back to this one from its footer, and the site name in the page's metadata and copyright line reads aDNA Network.
- Corroboration: the structured data on every page names this organization, with its home at this domain and its other presences listed. Note that a copy can reproduce that too, so read it as a signal, not as proof.
What we will never do
We publish no testimonials — attributed or otherwise. We will never contact you asking for a key, a token, or a payment. Invented quotes and invented attribution are the clone-site signature; if you see them beside this project's name, you are not on our site.
