Binius.xyz Documentation Access

The canonical Binius64 protocol documentation is in a sibling repository at ../binius.xyz/docs/pages/.

Prerequisites

Before reading documentation, verify the repo exists by attempting to read a file (e.g., ../binius.xyz/docs/pages/blueprint/overview.mdx). If the read fails, the repo is not available - see AGENTS.md for setup instructions or use the online docs at https://www.binius.xyz/blueprint.

File Format Notes

•Files use .mdx format (Markdown with JSX components)
•Math is written in LaTeX: $inline$ and $$display$$
•Some files import React components - ignore import statements and focus on markdown content
