Mālama Docs · docs.malamalabs.com

The standalone documentation site for the Mālama Labs network. This repo is independent of malamalabs.com and launch.malamalabs.com. It deploys on its own Vercel project to its own subdomain. The only contact point with the other two sites is a single outbound nav link they each add, pointing here.

Stack

A single static index.html. No build step, no framework, no dependencies. Routing is client-side and hash-based. Fonts load from Google Fonts. The whole site is one file plus three static companions (vercel.json, llms.txt, robots.txt).

This is intentional for V1: it ships in minutes, it cannot break the other two sites, and it is trivial to host. The tradeoffs and the Phase 2 path (per-path routing, SEO, the full Markdown agent layer) are in the runbook.

Local preview

No tooling required. Open index.html in a browser, or serve the folder:

npx serve .

How the site is organized

• The navigation model is the NAV array near the bottom of index.html. Each entry is a group with items, each item a {t: title, r: route} pair.
• Each page is an <article data-route="..." data-title="..."> block in index.html.
• The router shows the article whose data-route matches the URL hash, builds the right-rail "on this page" list from that article's h2 and h3 headings, and sets the active nav state.

To add a page

1. Add an <article data-route="my-route" data-title="My title"> block with the content.
2. Add {t:"My title", r:"my-route"} to the right group in the NAV array.
3. Link to it anywhere with href="#/my-route".

Content rule

The V1 canonical document set is the only source of content: Whitepaper, Tokenomics, Genesis Pricing, Data Demand Score, Validator Fees. Do not invent numbers. Do not copy figures from the other repos. Specific invariants:

• MLMA is a digital tool under the SEC-CFTC Joint Interpretation S7-2026-09. Never "utility token."
• 500M hard cap. Allocation 45/20/20/15. Emissions 60M over an eight-year taper (12/14/12/9/6/4/2/1M).
• Genesis reward is the Genesis Pricing v1.0 formula, normalized to the 25M pool. No 0.5 to 3.0x model.
• Two chains: Cardano (archival proof) and Base (market layer). Not bridged at TGE.
• No earnings, token-price, or payback projections. Revenue figures are modeled and labeled.
• Indigenous or Native stewardship content requires Jeffrey Wise FPIC review before publication.

Voice

Founder-operator, dense, stage-honest. No em dashes. No hype words. Headings in sentence case. Audience addressed by role, not "you." Numbers carry their own evidence.
