Git based markdown wiki orchestrator
Deep dive into TWiki as the file-based Perl counterpoint to XWiki: flat-file + RCS store (data/<Web>/<Topic>.txt), Webs/Topics, TWiki Forms storing fields as %META% in the topic text, TWikiML/variables, TWiki::Func API; the plugin handler callback surface (initPlugin, commonTagsHandler, before/afterSaveHandler, afterRenameHandler, REST handlers) and package types (Plugin/Skin/AddOn/Contrib); per-topic ALLOW/DENY access control (origin of yawex's model); Foswiki fork. Catalog (now 41 UCs): - UC-40 attach a file-backed engine's on-disk store directly (dual-path attach) - UC-41 import an engine's native file history (RCS .txt,v) into the journal - enrich UC-06 (TWiki per-topic ACL lineage), UC-34 (file-embedded %META%), UC-36 (RCS-import vs DB-supplement), UC-38 (TWiki handlers as adapter host) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

shard-wiki
Git-based Markdown wiki orchestrator and federation layer.
shard-wiki joins heterogeneous wiki-shaped page stores (shards) into a
coherent information space while preserving provenance, capabilities, and
history. It is an orchestration layer, not a wiki engine.
Status
Early-stage: Python scaffold, intent and specification groundwork, active design
workplan. See SCOPE.md for current maturity.
