Documentation

README

OpenKnowledge — what it is and how to install it

OpenKnowledge (OK) is a markdown-CRDT collaboration platform. It turns a directory of .md / .mdx files into a live, multi-writer knowledge base: agents and humans edit the same documents in real time, every change is attributed, and a browser preview renders edits as they land.

This skill covers discovery, install, and opening OpenKnowledge files — including single files that are not part of a project (see Opening a file outside a project below). It does not carry the in-project read/write runtime contract (the STOP rules for native file tools, the grounding and linking rules, the MCP routing table) — that ships separately as the project-local skill installed by ok init (see Working inside a project below).

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
