OKF: Open Knowledge Format Notes

Status: Accepted Owner: HotMem maintainers Last updated: 2026-07-06 Scope: OKF note index

1. Purpose

This section collects living development knowledge for HotMem. These documents are intentionally practical and iterative. They capture current decisions, heuristics, open questions, and compatibility practices before those ideas harden into final API or format specifications.

2. Current Notes

• Format and Maintenance
• File-Aware Architecture
• File-Native Memory Epic
• File-Native Memory Practices
• Portable Company Brain and Ecosystem Strategy

3. Compatibility Rule

OKF docs may evolve quickly, but they should not erase useful prior thinking. When a decision changes, update the document with the new decision and preserve important rationale or superseded context where it helps future maintainers.
