The Brain
of the Operation
We built HCS-16 Appnets to connect the world.
Now, HCS-21 Adapters give them something to think about.
An Empty Shell
is Useless.
HCS-16 Floras are powerful coordination engines. They provide the body: the secure multi-sig accounts, the communication channels, and the state storage.
But a body without a brain can't act. Without shared logic, nodes have nothing to agree on. They need a way to process information deterministically.
"We have a quorum, but what are we voting on?"
Injecting
Logic into the Network.
HCS-21 Adapters are the deterministic "cartridges" you plug into an Appnet.
They contain the source code, schema, and consensus logic needed to process data. Whether it's fetching an oracle price, verifying a credential, or running an LLM agent—the Adapter ensures every node runs the exact same calculation.
- Deterministic: Same input = Same output, everywhere.
- Verifiable: Inscribed on-chain manifests.
- Portable: Use standard registries like npm or PyPI.
How It Comes Together
From configuration to consensus, see how HCS-16 and HCS-21 interact.
Real-World Example: Flora Price Oracle
Three independent adapters. One verifiable price.
