§Where SIP Lives Now: The New Home of Decentralized Search

Published: September 25, 2026
Protocol: SIP-01 v1.2
Repository: github.com/SIP-01

§From Scattered to Canonical

For years, the entire SIP ecosystem lived under NostrDanish—a personal GitHub account mixing protocol work (crawlstr, sip-01-core, SIP-dashboard) with unrelated projects (0xbridge, 0xPrivacy-tools, bitchat). No taxonomy. No clear boundaries between core protocol, tooling, experiments, or legacy code.

On September 24, 2026, we migrated every active SIP project into a dedicated GitHub organization: github.com/SIP-01. Twenty repositories, clean names, consistent structure, descriptive READMEs. Protocol sovereignty achieved.

§What Changed

§Naming Conventions

crawlstr    → Crawlstr-v3 (latest), Crawlstr-v2 (legacy), crawlstr (archive)
indexstr    → Indexstr-v3 (latest), Indexstr-v2 (legacy), indexstr (archive)
SIP-Booster-Relay, UNCAGED-Index-Relay, Crawlstr-SIP-Relay → Preserved exactly
Dsearch, sip-01-core, SIP-dashboard → Migrated identically

Latest versions get capitalized prefixes (Crawlstr-v3, Indexstr-v3). Legacy versions under numbered suffixes. Original unversioned repos preserved as historical archives. No deletions. Clear hierarchy.

§Versioned Releases

Crawlstr-v3 = current decentralized browser crawler (adaptive recrawls, per-device indexer identity, no backend).
Crawlstr-v2 = previous iteration.
crawlstr = original implementation (preserved).

Same pattern for Indexstr, crawlstr, sip-01-core. Anyone joining the project can immediately distinguish active development from archived variants.

§Canonical Sources

The SIP-01 GitHub organization is now the single source of truth. Repositories existing under both NostrDanish/ AND SIP-01/ — only the latter needs cloning. NostrDanish copies will remain until retired, but canonical is always the org home.

§Why Organizations Matter (Beyond Vanity)

Code under a personal account: contributors hesitate to PR. Documentation says “join us,” nobody knows who “us” is. Organization signals:

• Ownership is collective, not tied to one username
• Discovery is intentional: users browse org homepage to see what matters
• CI/CD belongs here: pipelines, Dependabot, Actions workflows don’t belong on personal accounts
• Release management standardized: tags, releases, changelogs consistent across all repos

NostrDanish still hosts 0xPrivacy-tools, 0xbridge, 0xflare, bitchat, 0xsigner, and the broader 0xPrivacy ecosystem that isn’t SIP-specific. What was moved is what belongs together.

§Privacy Analysis

GitHub is centralized. Moving to an organization doesn’t add cryptographic guarantees. But it reduces information leakage:

1. Separating public protocol work from other projects — fewer cross-domain fingerprints for attackers analyzing activity
2. Easier future migrations: mirroring SIP-01 to IPFS, GitLab, or Hashtree becomes targeted, not scattered
3. Social engineering defense: organizations make it harder to impersonate “the maintainer” because contributors know exactly where canonical repos live

Still, this is convenience, not security. For truly sovereign backups: look at hashtree mirrors or NIP-34 announcements.

§Status

All 20 repositories synchronized on September 24, 2026. No code changes during migration — purely structural. Star count zero across all repos (fresh organization). Contributions welcome.
