We present a numerical analysis of local community assembly through weak migration from a regional species pool. At equilibrium, the local community consists of a subset ("clique") of species from the regional community. Our analysis reveals that the interaction networks of these cliques exhibit nontrivial architectures. Specifically, we demonstrate the pronounced nested structure of the clique interaction matrix in the case of symmetric interactions and the hyperuniform structure seen in asymmetric communities.
