Blueprint: a constitution for machine-held knowledge

An open draft specification for locally owned, policy-governed, append-only folders of plain-text knowledge.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-31 issue.

Field notes

The specification separates knowledge governance into seven documents, including DEFER for delegated authority, CONFIDE for model inference, and TRACE for tooling residue. Its proposed brain is a ten-layer folder of plain text with identity, records, policy, and ledger components. The page identifies three crossings—SPEAK between brains, CONFIDE to a model, and TRACE into tooling—and says draft conformance claims are premature.
