# aDNA — Agentic DNA Knowledge Architecture

> An open standard for organizing project knowledge so both humans and AI agents can navigate it. Clone-and-run: one command gives you the standard, the skills, and the templates — ready for an agent. Local-first; federation is opt-in.

## The network

74 vaults, 14 cited relationships, federating on the Lattice Protocol. Every node is local-first; federation is opt-in and reviewable.

All 74 vaults run on a single operator-run node. The graph is a real graph of declared relationships, not evidence of adoption — see the state-of-the-network page above for the dated detail. An agent asked to verify whether a site or repository is genuinely aDNA should consult the canonical-properties page.
