Naming Convention (T01, T07) | Aspect | Decision | |--------|----------| | Canonical paths | Single-character: `e/`, `r/`, `t/`, `s/`, `p/`, `q/` | | Human aliases | Symlinks: `entities/`, `relations/`, `timeline/`, `state/`, `procedures/`, `queries/` | | Discovery | `.aliases/` directory + MANIFEST.md per root | | Documentation | Long-form canonical, short-form parenthetical | | Error messages | Long-form primary, short-form hint | ### 2. Relation Storage (T02, T04, T06, T12) | Aspect | Decision | |--------|----------| | Binary relations | Files: `{subject}--{object}.rel` | | N-ary relations | Directories with role-labeled symlinks | | Delimiter | `--` (not `+`) | | Symmetric relations | Canonical hash of lexicographically sorted participants | | Attributes | `meta.yaml` within relation directory | | Query cost | O(n) scan accepted for attribute queries | ### 3. Entity Extensibility (T05, T13) | Aspect | Decision | |--------|----------| | Core types | person, org, place, concept, project, asset, task, word, event | | Extension mechanism | X-prefix registration (X01, X02...) | | Overflow notation | Length-prefix: `2AB` for 2-char code "AB" | ### 4. Determinism Model (T03, T08, T09) | Aspect | Decision | |--------|----------| | Scope | Deterministic within schema epoch | | Ambiguity handling | Mandatory semantic qualifiers | | State boundary | State-as-property (not entity) | | Version pinning | Agents MUST pin to commit or version tag | ### 5. Scalability (T10) | Aspect | Decision | |--------|----------| | Entity sharding | Hash-prefix: `e/person/a8/alice/` | | Secondary indexes | Optional `.idx/` directory | | Relation queries | O(n) scan accepted as tradeoff | ### 6. Git Conventions (T15, T16, T17) | Aspect | Decision | |--------|----------| | Concurrency | Pessimistic file lock (`.blue/LOCK`) | | Merge strategy | .gitattributes with `merge=union` for state files | | Destructive ops | Soft-delete to `.archived/` with MANIFEST.log | | Retention | 90 days before `gc` eligible | ### 7. Spec Rigor (T18, T19, T20) | Aspect | Decision | |--------|----------| | Normative language | RFC 2119 keywords (MUST, SHOULD, MAY) | | Conformance classes | Reader-Core, Writer-Core, Agent-Complete | | Error taxonomy | FATAL, WARNING, INFO with `UKFS-{SEV}-{NUM}` codes | ### 8. Validation (T14) | Aspect | Decision | |--------|----------| | Scope | 27 docs, 50 questions, UKFS vs RAG comparison | | Timeline | 11 engineering days | | Success metrics | Precision@3, determinism, staleness resilience, token efficiency | ## Deferred to v1.1 | Topic | Reason | |-------|--------| | Security/Access Control (T11) | Requires separate RFC for classification metadata and encryption | | Validation-Complete conformance class | Needs schema validation tooling | | Full error code registry | Needs implementation experience | | Multi-writer CRDT merge | Complexity beyond v1.0 scope | ## Expert Roster ### Round 0 (12 experts) | Name | Role | Tier | Top Contribution | |------|------|------|------------------| | Muffin | Filesystem Architect | Core | Hash-prefix sharding | | Cupcake | Knowledge Engineer | Core | Reification pattern | | Scone | AI Agent Specialist | Core | Cache check step 0 | | Eclair | DevEx Lead | Core | Symlink aliases | | Donut | API Designer | Core | `--` delimiter | | Brioche | Systems Architect | Core | Relation index manifests | | Croissant | Database Architect | Adjacent | Secondary indexes | | Macaron | Security Engineer | Adjacent | Classification metadata | | Cannoli | Graph Theorist | Adjacent | Canonical ordering | | Strudel | Cognitive Scientist | Adjacent | Expert-novice asymmetry | | Beignet | Library Scientist | Wildcard | Faceted classification | | Churro | Contrarian | Wildcard | "Prove it first" challenge | ### Round 1 (9 experts) | Name | Role | Source | Top Contribution | |------|------|--------|------------------| | Brioche | Systems Architect | Retained | Epoch-scoped determinism | | Beignet | Library Scientist | Retained | X-prefix extensions | | Muffin | Filesystem Architect | Retained | Locked naming decision | | Cannoli | Graph Theorist | Retained | Directory-per-relation consensus | | Eclair | DevEx Lead | Retained | Progressive disclosure | | Strudel | Cognitive Scientist | Retained | Conditional converge | | Tartlet | Git/VCS Expert | Pool | Concurrency model | | Galette | Standards Expert | Pool | RFC 2119 adoption | | Palmier | Implementation Pragmatist | Created | Validation plan | ### Round 2 (5 experts) | Name | Role | Source | Top Contribution | |------|------|--------|------------------| | Galette | Standards Expert | Retained | Conformance classes | | Tartlet | Git/VCS Expert | Retained | .gitattributes + soft-delete | | Eclair | DevEx Lead | Retained | Documentation policy | | Strudel | Cognitive Scientist | Retained | T07 sign-off | | Brioche | Systems Architect | Retained | Architectural integration | ## Resolved Tensions Summary | ID | Tension | Resolution | |----|---------|------------| | T01 | Path brevity vs self-documentation | Symlink aliases | | T02 | Filesystem vs graph semantics | Hybrid file/directory model | | T03 | Determinism vs schema evolution | Epoch-scoped determinism | | T04 | Binary relations insufficient | Directory-per-relation + symlinks | | T05 | Closed entity types | X-prefix extension | | T06 | Relation symmetry ambiguity | Canonical hash ordering | | T07 | Expert-novice asymmetry | Long-form docs, error hints | | T08 | Determinism vs semantic ambiguity | Mandatory qualifiers | | T09 | State/entity boundary | State-as-property | | T10 | Relation query performance | O(n) accepted | | T12 | Traversal vs modeling fidelity | Modeling wins | | T13 | Notational hospitality | Length-prefix overflow | | T14 | No implementation evidence | 11-day validation plan | | T15 | Concurrent write model | Pessimistic file lock | | T16 | No .gitattributes | 8-line standard file | | T17 | Destructive ops unguarded | .archived/ soft-delete | | T18 | No RFC 2119 language | Boilerplate adopted | | T19 | No conformance classes | 3-tier model | | T20 | No error model | FATAL/WARNING/INFO | --- **All experts signaled [MOVE:CONVERGE].
