Documentation
Everything a lab engineer or compliance architect needs to evaluate, integrate, and verify the Akaeon Registry.
The open format
ADP-1 — the vendor-independent declaration format. Anyone verifies any declaration without trusting Akaeon. Ships with a reference verifier and real test vectors.
Read ADP-1 →For labs
One HTTPS GET per domain at training-data ingestion. Standard-library Node.js to verify — three checks, no SDK. One to three engineer-days.
Read the lab runbook →For publishers
One POST, one DNS record, half a day. An Arweave-anchored record of your opt-out, plus in-band signals crawlers already parse.

Specifications
Technical specification
Cryptographic primitives, message schemas, audit-defensibility properties, and governance for the Akaeon Registry.
ADP-1 — the Akaeon Declaration Protocol
The open, vendor-independent format for a machine-readable rights reservation: a declaration anyone can verify without trusting Akaeon. Three layers — declaration, anchor, discovery — plus a reference verifier and conformance vectors that ship with the spec.
State commitment addendum
The daily anchored state commitment: a sparse Merkle tree over the registry's per-domain state, root signed and anchored every midnight UTC. Publicly verifiable proofs of membership and absence for any specific domain — without the registry ever publishing its contents.
For labs
For publishers
Publisher integration runbook
Step-by-step guide for a publisher registering a domain opt-out. One ops engineer, half a day. DNS-based proof of authority, no new infrastructure.
Partnership integration ladder
For platforms with creators: the integration trajectory beyond Phase 1. Per-work provenance and enforcement.
Reference
Concrete example: a publisher opt-out, end to end
Walk one specific scenario from submission to lab-side acknowledgment, demonstrating to a technical evaluator exactly what code paths run, what artifacts each step produces, and what's verifiable independently.
Architecture
How Stelais, the Akaeon Registry, the core packages, and Arweave fit together — and what to omit from the diagram on purpose.
