7 +**Consistent Node Structure**:
8 +Each node (A, B, C) has identical components:
9 +
10 +* **Database**: Local storage for claims, scenarios, evidence, verdicts
11 +* **AKEL Instance**: AI processing specific to that node
12 +* **Users**: Local community (Contributors, Reviewers, Experts, Moderators)
13 +
14 +**Federation Sync Layer**:
15 +
16 +* Coordinates data exchange between nodes
17 +* Handles version bundles with cryptographic signatures
18 +* Enforces trust model (Trusted/Neutral/Untrusted)
19 +* Manages conflict resolution and branching
20 +
21 +**AKEL Knowledge Exchange** (dotted lines):
22 +
23 +* Direct peer-to-peer between AKEL instances
24 +* Shares embeddings and contradiction alerts
25 +* Independent from content synchronization
26 +* Never shares model weights or training data
27 +
28 +**Optional Storage** (IPFS/S3):
29 +
30 +* Distributed storage for large evidence files
31 +* Content-addressed for integrity
32 +* Reduces duplication across nodes
33 +
34 +**Data Flow**:
35 +
36 +1. Node creates new version
37 +2. Sync Layer packages as signed bundle
38 +3. Pushed to trusted nodes
39 +4. Remote validation and import
40 +5. AKEL instances exchange knowledge
41 +6. Large files via shared storage
