Consolidate 22 sibling repos into layered organism structure
Place useful parts of the surrounding repos into sica-fondt by layer, per the
body model (Ada = membrane; brain/endocrine/capabilities/knowledge non-Ada):

- brain/        LLM reasoning + providers (dapr, hermes, MoMoA)
- capabilities/ REPRAG sidecars: hermes tools/skills, dapr tools, parallel
                dispatch, A51 channels, and the OSINT cluster
- knowledge/    LORAG corpus: 754 cyber-skills, agency personas, secure-coding,
                MITRE ATT&CK data
- reference/    defensive threat-reference (C3, shhbruh doc) + AdaYaml parser

License handling: AGPL sources (worldosint, advanced_evolution, mercury,
Reticulum) and GPL DeTTECT are SPEC-only clean-room/port descriptions — no
copyleft code copied. MIT/Apache/data parts copied as working trees.

Safety: shhbruh escape/persistence material and C3 covert-C2 kept as reference
only, not wired into the running organism. See CONSOLIDATION.md.

Standards and References - DNS Tunneling Detection

MITRE ATT&CK References

Technique Name Description
T1071.004 Application Layer Protocol: DNS DNS-based C2 communication
T1048.003 Exfiltration Over Unencrypted Non-C2 Protocol Data theft via DNS
T1572 Protocol Tunneling IP-over-DNS tunneling
T1568.002 Domain Generation Algorithms Algorithmically generated domains
T1132.001 Data Encoding: Standard Encoding Base32/64 in DNS queries

DNS Tunneling Detection Thresholds

Indicator Threshold Rationale
Query length > 50 characters Normal queries average 20-30 chars
Subdomain label length > 30 characters Max label is 63; tunneling uses near-max
Subdomain entropy > 3.5 bits/char Base32/64 encoding produces high entropy
Unique subdomains per domain > 100/hour Legitimate domains have few unique subs
Query volume to single domain > 100/hour Sustained high volume indicates tunneling
TXT record query ratio > 50% to domain TXT queries carry more data
NULL record queries Any volume Rarely used legitimately
