Start

The fastest way into the network, and where each step actually lives today:

Step Where
Quick start guide See docs.digitalworld.earth
Run locally See the ClearOS reference installations in the Knowledge Base §35
Create an identity See Digital Identity
Issue a test credential Not yet published as a standalone developer flow
Present and verify See Verification and Credentials
Integrate messaging See the Messaging SDK
Connect a service Not yet published as a standalone guide

Specifications

What's formally specified today, and what is still a named gap:

Profile Status
LIFE Protocol Published - see Declaration of Unity and the Engineering Specification
Identity and credential profile Published - see Identity Spine
Recovery profile Published - see Onboarding: Words, Wallet, Go
Wallet profile Not yet published as a standalone profile
Issuer profile Not yet published as a standalone profile
Verifier profile Not yet published as a standalone profile
Privacy profile Not yet published as a standalone profile
Provider profile Not yet published as a standalone profile
Jurisdiction profile Partially published - see Identity in Law and the SEDI reference

Interoperability

Open standards this network implements today, in testing, or not yet integrated - see Compatible Technologies and Integration Targets for the full picture. For the specific protocols named in developer requests:

Standard Status
W3C Verifiable Credentials (VC) Supported today
OpenID4VCI / OpenID4VP Supported today via OpenID4VC / OIDC (see Knowledge Base §34.2)
SD-JWT VC In testing (selective disclosure)
ISO mdoc Not yet published
Digital Credentials API Not yet published
KERI/ACDC adapters Not yet published

Implementations

Real, published repositories versus named implementations that don't exist as standalone deliverables yet:

Implementation Status
Finance SDK Published - JavaScript and Python
Communication SDK Published - JavaScript
Reference wallet Not yet published as a standalone reference implementation
Reference issuer Not yet published as a standalone reference implementation
Reference verifier Not yet published as a standalone reference implementation
Provider node Not yet published as a standalone reference implementation
Member vault Not yet published as a standalone reference implementation

Evidence

Item Status
Conformance results Not yet published - tracked as Planned on the Trust Center roadmap
Test vectors Not yet published
Interoperability events Not yet published
Security advisories Not yet published - see Responsible Disclosure
Release notes Not yet published centrally - each repository carries its own commit history on GitLab
Known limitations See Trust Center and Open-Source Licensing for what's currently unreleased
