Knowledge Contracts in DocsFab

Use these references when you need an exact local DocsFab knowledge command, evidence lineage record, or immutable synthesized model package. Executable schemas and validators remain authoritative when they differ from the prose. For more information, refer to DocsFab Knowledge and Delivery Reference.

Reference Topics

Topic	Use it to	Canonical artifact
DocsFab Knowledge CLI	Operate the local, single-process control plane.	Event-store state and deterministic Markdown exports.
Source-Thread Registry in DocsFab	Preserve one origin’s items, representations, lineage, and event history.	Versioned JSON records plus an append-only JSON Lines ledger.
Reference-Model Package in DocsFab	Inspect one synthesis result and its decision history.	Immutable version directory plus append-only `history.md`.

Use the source-thread registry before synthesis. A generated source-thread view is not a reference-model version, and neither artifact grants release approval.
