tegwick 8941e131e8 research: UseModWiki deep dive (flat-file ancestor); SHARD-WP-0003 done
SHARD-WP-0003 T9 (final). Lineage dive: the flat-file ancestor (Clifford Adams
c.2000, from AtisWiki/CvWiki) that early Wikipedia ran on (MediaWiki Phase I).
No new capability -- reinforces the minimal flat-file floor (UC-82) and
CamelCase linking (UC-25); historical grounding that the file-store floor is
the field's common root. Enrichment-only: UC-01/40/25/36/41. Marks T9 done and
SHARD-WP-0003 complete (9/9). Feeds SHARD-WP-0002 T11.

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 + Federated Wiki + Wikibase + git-forge wikis + TiddlyWiki + ikiwiki + Quip + MojoMojo + Oddmuse + UseModWiki deep dives & shard-spectrum synthesis (research/260614-*/)

Work SHARD-WP-0001 active (6 tasks); SHARD-WP-0002 active (16 tasks: T1T10 federation + T11T16 adapter contract); SHARD-WP-0003 done (9 engine dives complete); SHARD-WP-0004 active (8 computational-knowledge dives)

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). Research continues under workplans/SHARD-WP-0003-engine-dives-batch.md (remaining new-insight wiki engines + git-forge wikis + classic engines) and workplans/SHARD-WP-0004-computational-knowledge-systems.md (literate programming, computational notebooks, live-coding REPLs, image-based/moldable environments — the executable/computational page-model thread). Specification outputs land in spec/. Inbound integration asks remain in demand/ until reviewed and promoted into spec or workplans.
