AT Protocol Implementation (Rust)

---

Warning

This library is a work in progress. Things will change. Things are incomplete. Things will break. Until the project reaches version 1.0.0, stability will not be guaranteed.

rsky (/ˈrɪski/) is intended to be a full implementation of AT Protocol in the Rust language. Most of the code here are general purpose implementations while some (like rsky-feedgen) are specific to the use cases of the Blacksky community.

What is in here?

Rust Crates:

Crate	Docs	crates.io
rsky-crypto: cryptographic signing and key serialization	README
rsky-identity: DID and handle resolution	README
rsky-lexicon: schema definition language	README
rsky-syntax: string parsers for identifiers	README

Rust Services:

• rsky-pds: "Personal Data Server", hosting repo content for atproto accounts.
• rsky-feedgen: Bluesky feed generator that closely follows the use cases of the Blacksky community.
• rsky-firehose: Firehose consumer.
