SHARD-WP-0003 T1. Federation model (not a shard candidate): per-page append-only semantic-action journal with story as derived replay, fork-with-site-provenance, neighborhood/roster discovery + chorus of forks. Prior art for shard-wiki's own pillars: coordination journal (UC-71), overlay-before-mutation (UC-26 fork), union-without-erasure (UC-72). Attach as REST/file-store hybrid (page JSON + CORS, UC-70). Feeds SHARD-WP-0002 T1-T5, T11, T13, T16. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

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 deep dives & shard-spectrum synthesis (research/260614-*/) |
| Demand | NetKingdom integration asks captured, not yet negotiated |
| Spec | Architecture blueprint drafted; UseCaseCatalog 72 UCs from research; PRD/TSD scaffolds |
| Work | SHARD-WP-0001 active (6 tasks); SHARD-WP-0002 active (16 tasks: T1–T10 federation + T11–T16 adapter contract); SHARD-WP-0003 active (9 engine dives); 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.
