I love the idea! OKF 0.2 solves for the problem of the AIs generating massive amounts of documentation (far more than humans ever created) and giving it equal-weight over what a human actually approved and committed to. I've been using it to attribute my decisions with specific directions on how to ensure that it takes strong direction from my explicit decisions and clarifies implicit / AI-driven decisioning.
Adding on progressive disclosure to this is brilliant, and I love the idea of a fast, in-memory, single-binary tool. This is a great way to approach the solution to this problem.
One thing I will say though - I would never be able to use this in my enterprise. It would just be too much of an uphill battle to purchase something that is so niche in utility - this tool is not a ton different than just having the md files locally and having it use ripgrep to search over them, and telling CLAUDE to write the OKF files as well as an index when it makes changes, is it? is the index generated dynamically / is anything about the progressive disclosure different than just having the agent manage it while it documents?
If you're going for smaller teams that can buy tools without a ton of approval / procedural overhead, I think that might have some success. another possible solution would be to make the cross-repo search something that you can handle with OSS but you have to self-host, and then pay for support. if you got enough usage and penetration within an enterprise from the teams just using OSS and self-hosting, they might consider buying support after-the-fact.
