# Waku foundation

Historical evidence from [egoist/waku](https://github.com/egoist/waku) at
`1114d4c5bdd3baf1454667bd7dd73ddd767a4767`. License: GPL-3.0-only; architecture-only study, no implementation copying.
Local convenience checkout: `<local-checkouts>/waku`.

Current project source, tests, requirements, and runtime behavior outrank this
projection. This is source evidence, not a procedure or an exhaustive repository study.

Open [the index](references/index.md), then load only
[signed archive staging, extraction validation order and cleanup ownership](references/archive-validation-order.md) when it answers the active question.
For Update handoff and readiness, load [the lifecycle capsule](references/update-handoff-readiness.md).
Revalidate the pinned implementation and direct tests before reuse.
