ATT&CK is the versioning gold standard — STIX 2.1 JSON with revoked-by deprecation chains. The EvolutionPattern: biannual, rare breaking, evolving IDs, structured_complete changelog.

F3 recommends the bundled linked recipe (mitre-f3-technique-linked), with parent links and tactic hub notes; mitre-f3-technique-flat remains available as the previous default. It shares technique ids with ATT&CK, so a vault holding both can contain two notes for one id string; see the 2026-10-27 log.
