Dwarf Fortress Systems Atlas

This atlas has been superseded by Dwarf Fortress Graph Lab. The earlier diagrams remain available here as an archive.

This originally started as a vibe-coded project to help me understand how the systems inside Dwarf Fortress interact, especially as a basis for augmenting parts of that simulation, like dwarven thought and memory, with small LLMs.
