Compatibility
.knowledge is Node-based, repo-local, and designed to stay useful across multiple coding agents without requiring cloud sync.
// runtime
Core runtime expectations
.knowledge tools run as local Node scripts inside the target repository. Optional memory live checks may use Python only when explicitly requested by the memory adapter.
The release package does not install Python, Mem0, Pinecone dependencies, or remote services.
- Node-based CLI tools
- Local repository files as the primary state
- Windows launcher scripts for Inspector convenience
- No telemetry requirement for free/core local operation
// agents
Agent support model
Supported integrations are installed through explicit runtime choices. Unknown agents can still use the generic bridge by reading Quick-Start.md and following the same trust rules.
That keeps .knowledge compatible without inventing undocumented vendor folders.
