Atlas

Point

The reference validator is the executable baseline

The reference validator implements the standard profiles, diagnostics, output states, fixture runner, and normalized model for release 0.8.0.

The repository’s reference validator discovers local Atlas structures, parses the strict text and JSON profile, applies authored-data schemas, resolves cross-record constraints, emits deterministic diagnostics, and produces normalized output only for complete valid resolved input. Its command-line and fixture modes use the versioned public output contracts.

The implementation is a reference point for observable behavior, not the source of semantic authority. Normative prose has precedence, packaged schemas must remain byte-identical with specification schemas, and fixtures expose behavior that another processor can reproduce without importing this code.

Reference validatorThis is the shipped executable that defines standard profile behavior, diagnostics, fixture execution, and normalized output.

Reading this Atlas

Atlas connects project documents to the claims, decisions, and perspectives they inform. It helps readers find relevant material and understand why it matters.

  1. Start with a Map, then narrow the view through its Areas.
  2. Search for a phrase, title, or Point identity. Filter results by type.
  3. Open a Point for its explanations, related Points, and sources. Follow source links for the underlying material.

Quick reference

Map
A durable project perspective organized around one central question.
Area
A concern within a Map. Areas can overlap; memberships explain why a Point belongs.
Point
One claim, decision, constraint, question, or other coherent item with its own identity.
Context
An explanation of how the same Point matters in another Map.
Relation
A directed link between Points with an explanation, such as support, dependency, or replacement.
Resource
An addressable document or other material.
Content
The primary material for an Atlas item.
Reference
Material linked as evidence, background, implementation, history, or an example.

Read the state

Posture describes the author's stance: asserted means presented as applicable or believed; open, unresolved; proposed, a candidate; intended, a desired or selected future state.

Lifecycle describes standing: active means current context; historical, retained prior context; superseded, replaced by another Point; withdrawn, retracted.

Asserted does not mean verified. Intended does not mean implemented. Source links provide material to assess these claims.
