+Config-driven, pipeline-oriented DNS resolver that allows complex
+workflows to be defined simply. Built using the Darvaza sidecar
+engine and :go-pkg{mod="darvaza.org/resolver"}.
+
+## Architecture
+
+Penne uses a pipeline/middleware design with three resolver modes:
+
+- **Iterative** — performs iterative DNS resolution from root servers.
+- **Forwarder** — forwards queries to upstream resolvers.
+- **Chained** — chains multiple resolver strategies together.
+
+## Key features
+
+- **Horizons** — named CIDR sets that route, annotate, or filter DNS
+  requests based on the client's IP address, enabling split-horizon DNS.
+- **Pattern matching** — uses globbing (via
+  :go-pkg{mod="github.com/gobwas/glob"}) instead of regex for suffix
+  matching and name rewrites, with capture group replacements
+  (`${n}`).
+- **Capabilities** — domain-specific resolver restriction, record
+  filtering (e.g., dropping `AAAA` records), and request/response
+  rewriting.
+
+## Configuration
+
+Penne is designed to be config-driven, with YAML or JSON
+configuration files defining resolver pipelines, horizons,
+and transformation rules. This allows complex DNS workflows to
+be declared without writing code.
+
+## Planned features
+
+Future versions of Penne will adopt a plugin architecture — each
+capability below is planned as a standalone plugin, so you only
+install the pieces you need. The planned plugins are:
+
+- **Authoritative DNS** — host your own DNS zones with persistent
+  storage, turning Penne into a full network DNS server.
+- **DHCP server** — integrated DHCP lease management alongside DNS,
+  keeping address assignment and name resolution under one roof.
+- **IPAM server** — IP Address Management for tracking address
+  usage, planning subnets, and managing allocations across the
+  network.
+- **Security licence (Protective DNS)** — threat protection at the
+  DNS layer, blocking known malicious domains, phishing sites, and
+  malware command-and-control servers.
+- **Enhanced reporting** — richer analytics and reporting on DNS
+  activity across the network.
+- **Blocklists** — network-wide domain blocking, similar to ad-blockers
+  but applied at the server level for all clients.
+- **HA clustering** — high-availability mode with multiple Penne nodes
+  staying in sync to provide failover if one node goes down.
