# OKF — Open Knowledge Format
Represent knowledge as an **OKF bundle**: a directory tree of UTF-8 markdown files with YAML frontmatter, designed to be read by humans, written by agents, and exchanged across organizations with no required tooling. "If you can `cat` a file, you can read OKF." This skill is the repo's standard for *how knowledge markdown is structured* — frontmatter shape, reserved files, cross-links, and conformance.
The authoritative rules live in the vendored spec at `reference/SPEC.md` (OKF v0.1). This SKILL.md is the operational summary; when a detail is ambiguous, open `reference/SPEC.md` and follow it.
> **Provenance — not ours.** OKF is a published, vendor-neutral standard from **Google Cloud Platform** (OKF v0.1, 2026-06-12), not a format coined in this repo. We adopt and vendor it (`reference/SPEC.md` is refreshed from upstream via `scripts/update-spec.sh`).
