tegwick 4543f5dc43 research: Wiki.js deep dive (storage-module engine, DB<->Git Markdown, GraphQL); UC-68/69
The closest existing engine to shard-wiki's own design: DB-canonical
(Postgres/MySQL/SQLite) but with a pluggable storage-module abstraction
that bidirectionally syncs clean Markdown (+ YAML frontmatter) to Git
(also FS/S3/Azure), each provider acting as backup or source of truth.
Two big findings: (1) the storage-module interface is concrete
adapter-contract prior art alongside Foswiki::Store, and the closer one
(medium = Markdown in Git); (2) the engine-maintained bidirectional Git
mirror is the ideal file-store attach (clean MD + git history) and, being
bidirectional, makes git commit a write path (overlay/patch as a commit,
no API). Also GraphQL API (introspection = capability discovery;
selective fields = efficient projection) and authn-delegated auth modules
+ path-based rule ACL. Added UC-68 (engine-maintained bidirectional Git
mirror, write-by-commit), UC-69 (typed/introspectable API for schema
discovery + selective projection); enriched UC-06/36/38/40/42/57. Catalog
now 69 UCs. Architecture for SHARD-WP-0002 T11/T14: storage-module
abstraction as 2nd adapter-contract prior art, engine-maintained Git
mirror as attach+write surface, GraphQL introspection for capability
discovery.

# SCOPE
## One-Liner
Git-based Markdown wiki orchestrator and federation layer — early-stage scaffold
with intent, research, and specification groundwork; domain model not yet
implemented.
## Mode Of Operation
Close the gap between this file and `INTENT.md` by exploring the problem space
(`research/`), reviewing inbound demand (`demand/`), refining specifications
(`spec/`), and implementing through registered workplans (`workplans/`).
Learnings update both SCOPE and INTENT where necessary.
## Current Status
| Layer | State |
|-------|-------|
| Code | Python package scaffold (`src/shard_wiki/`, smoke tests only) |
| Intent | `INTENT.md` established; authorization-in-core amendments drafted |
| Research | yawex prior art; c2 origins; federation concepts; wikiengines overview (`research/260608-*/`); XWiki/TWiki/Foswiki deep dives (`research/260613-*/`); Xanadu + ZigZag + Roam + Obsidian + Notion + Joplin + Logseq + local-first workspaces (Anytype/AFFiNE/AppFlowy) + Trilium + Wiki.js deep dives & shard-spectrum synthesis (`research/260614-*/`) |
| Demand | NetKingdom integration asks captured, not yet negotiated |
| Spec | Architecture blueprint drafted; UseCaseCatalog 69 UCs from research; PRD/TSD scaffolds |
| Work | `SHARD-WP-0001` active (6 tasks); `SHARD-WP-0002` active (16 tasks: T1T10 federation + T11T16 adapter contract) |
## In Scope (today)
- Establishing repository documentation structure and specification groundwork.
- Federation design informed by yawex prior art (page resolution, namespaces,
derived views, provenance, overlays).
- Authorization model design (delegated authentication, core authorization).
- Shard adapter contract and wiki page model (to be specified, then implemented).
- Git-backed coordination journal for information spaces.
- State Hub workplan registration and consistency sync.
## Out Of Scope (today)
- A standalone wiki engine UI or rendering pipeline.
- Authentication, credential storage, or user directory implementation.
- Hard-coded editorial, sync, or conflict-resolution policy.
- Generic file mirroring independent of wiki-page semantics.
- Production deployment, multi-tenant operations, or enterprise IAM rollout.
## Boundary Rule
`shard-wiki` orchestrates wiki-shaped content across heterogeneous shards. It
provides mechanisms (federation, projection, overlay, patching, reconciliation);
policy (canonical source, conflict preference, access rules) remains explicit and
configurable. Identity comes from pluggable providers; authorization decisions
live in core.
## Current Planning
Design work is tracked in `workplans/SHARD-WP-0001-yawex-requirements.md`
(yawex-derived resolution, namespaces, overlays) and
`workplans/SHARD-WP-0002-federation-architecture.md` (federation architecture,
decisions, tradeoffs). Specification outputs land in `spec/`. Inbound
integration asks remain in `demand/` until reviewed and promoted into spec or
workplans.
