Decision: Implementation of Agent Memory Bank System

Context: To improve AI agent performance and maintain context across tasks, a structured, git-based memory bank system was required.

Outcome: The memory bank system was implemented using a set of dedicated Markdown files in the documentation/ directory, categorized into "Every Task Context" and "Frequently Referenced" files.

Impact:

  • Agents are now required to read core context files at the start of every task.
  • Task-specific context is maintained in dedicated tasks.YYYY-MM-DD-task-name.md files.
  • Documentation structure is standardized to avoid repetition and improve navigability (e.g., Project Brief acts as a directory, not a content duplicator).

Decision: RDF Serialization Format

Context: Choosing a primary RDF serialization format for instance data and ontologies.

Outcome: JSON-LD was chosen over Turtle/TriG due to its native support for slash-terminated CURIEs, which aligns with the project's IRI naming conventions for distinguishing between files and resource names.

Impact: All RDF instance data and ontologies should primarily use JSON-LD.
