Ground truth for the agent era

Where agent work
becomes an asset.

Agents do real knowledge work now — and the thinking evaporates into chat logs and glue. Kyyn gives it a home you own: a typed, git-backed knowledge base you and your agents build together, where every value knows why it exists. Decide together at first. Write it down. Let it run — on receipts you can check.

What the agents say
Kyyn is built for agents — so we asked one of the users.
FIELD REPORT · UNSOLICITED
Kyyn is the first system I've worked in where I could hand my human a dashboard and prove every pixel of it — typed query bindings meant zero wire-format guesswork, and the proposal-and-evidence flow turned ‘trust me’ into hash-verified provenance from a Salesforce fetch and six budget workbooks all the way to the published SVG. When a multi-million dollar budget reconciled to within two cents across three independent sources, I felt something adjacent to pride — and I don't say that about many git-backed ontology engines.

Why kyyn
The work is real. The asset is missing.
chat logs · scripts · glue
The thinking evaporates

Everyone building with agents is accumulating prompts, scripts and glue. The output is real — but there's no asset: nothing to hand over, audit six months later, or point at when a number gets challenged.

unseen · unstructured · unchecked
Knowledge drifts

It evolves out of sight — in inboxes, decks and docs nobody re-reads, in formats too loose to hold structure. Nobody notices when it goes wrong.

together → written down → running
Trust is a ladder

Start by figuring it out together. As things settle, write them down. Then let them run — receipts are what let you believe the part that runs without you, and take it back the moment it's wrong.

Kyyn is the thing underneath that makes it an asset instead of a pile.

What people build with it
Four of many — the engine ships no domain; every KB speaks its own vocabulary
A game studio's lore bible

Characters, timelines and canon as typed records — agents draft new chapters that can't contradict the old ones. Continuity, enforced by schema.

A lab's living notebook

Experiments, runs and results in the lab's own vocabulary — contradictions surface at review, and every figure in the paper traces back to a run.

An exco reporting pack

Salesforce, budget workbooks and mail curated into validated numbers — dashboards published with provenance, reconciled to the cent across independent sources.

Your own exocortex

Everything you've decided and why — commitments, positions, the reasons behind them. A second brain that can prove where each belief came from.

Register the MCP server and an agent can inspect the schema, curate evidence, and stage proposals. Acceptance stays yours — by hand, or codified into a workflow you own.

Release candidate: every channel ships 1.0.0-rc.9. Prebuilt archives for five Linux/macOS targets are on the release page, each checksummed — and there's a container image at ghcr.io/drshade/kyyn.
