ORYN develops in the open. Each primitive has a home in source control, and the documentation that explains it lives alongside the code. Reputation here is earned the same way it is everywhere in ORYN — through contribution.
oryn-docs
The canonical documentation and research repository. It holds the manifesto, the concept reference, the primitive deep-dives, and the open research tracks. If you want to understand ORYN, start here.
| Purpose | Documentation, research notes, and specifications. |
|---|---|
| Phase | 0 — Genesis (active). |
| Read alongside | Documentation · Manifesto |
oryn-registry
The identity registry — the onchain home for participant identities and profiles on Base. The registry is where an identity is created, a profile is attached, and an address is resolved to a participant. It is the foundation the other primitives build on.
| Purpose | Onchain identity creation, profiles, and resolution. |
|---|---|
| Phase | 1 — Identity. |
| Implements | Identity · Research #001 |
oryn-graph
The relationship graph — typed, directional edges between identities, plus the queries that make discovery possible: neighbors, paths, clusters, and bridges. This is where reputation propagation and discovery come to life.
| Purpose | The shared coordination graph and discovery queries. |
|---|---|
| Phase | 3 — Graph. |
| Implements | Graph · Research #003 |
oryn-sdk
The developer toolkit — the libraries and APIs that let any application read identity, query reputation, and walk the graph. The SDK is how the coordination layer reaches the applications that will use it.
| Purpose | Client libraries and developer APIs for integrators. |
|---|---|
| Phase | 4 — Protocol. |
| Surfaces | Identity · Reputation · Graph |
ORYN is at Phase 0. The registry, graph, and SDK describe planned work; oryn-docs is where the current, public output lives. Links to live source will be published as each repository opens.
How to participate
Read
Begin with the documentation and the manifesto.
Study the research
The three tracks define the open problems ORYN is working through.
Contribute
Open infrastructure means anyone can build on it and help shape it. Contribution is how reputation is earned.
