Config schema design (historical proposal)
1Original FrameworkConfig and LinkConfig proposals from April 2026. Superseded by the unified v0.1 schema spec (which renames FrameworkConfig → ImportRecipe).
Constraint enforcement strategies
2Eager, lazy, and compensating approaches to data integrity in file-based systems — from scripts to plugins.
Key decisions
3Technical decisions made during development and their rationale.
Helper function specifications
4Reusable data transformation functions — matching, path building, normalization, and hierarchical forward-fill.
Link metadata syntax specification
5Complete specification of the typed-link syntax — wrapping styles, link types, regex patterns, and the two-tier priority system.
Open questions
6Unresolved design questions for future development.
Prior art
7Existing tools, research, and the history of the Crosswalker project.
Tradeoffs
8Known tradeoffs in the current design and their justifications.
v0.1 schema spec — governing contracts and representations
9Unified v0.1 design reference for the Tier 1 and Recipe Schema Contracts, Tier 1 record shapes, and the derived Tier 2 sidecar representation.
Vision
10Crosswalker's product identity, operating model, machine-actionability, implementation horizon, and design principles.
Research challenges
11One-off research briefs for agents to critically assess the project. Each challenge is a focused assignment that stress-tests an assumption, explores a blind spot, or finds new paths.
Challenge 02: Architecture stress test at scale
12What breaks when Crosswalker handles 50 frameworks, 100K notes, 500K crosswalk edges, and 50 concurrent users?
