• Recurring problem in my own AI-supported projects: requirements analysis, use cases, and architecture decisions can be created quickly with AI support, but they remain hard to trace and are scattered across markdown files – knowledge is lost as soon as it is no longer in the context window. arknet turns requirements engineering and architecture knowledge into structured, testable data instead of plain text: requirements, use cases, and architecture decisions as a consistently linked knowledge graph, traceable from the requirement to the architecture decision – queryable for humans and AI agents alike. Built technically on RDF/OWL and its own MCP server.

• Result: MCP daemon running, Docker image automatically published on GHCR, nine hexagonal modules, eleven ADRs (including an open-core license model). Requirements engineering and ubiquitous language hexagon active. Publicly available as a Community Edition under Apache-2.0 since 07/2026 (github.com/kogn-io/arknet), together with the Claude Code plugin and the GHCR image; open-core model.
