OKF Knowledge Agent

An LLM-managed knowledge base following the Open Knowledge Format (OKF) v0.1 spec — a bundle of plain markdown files with YAML frontmatter, readable by humans, diffable in git, managed by an agent.

Three ways in, one agent:

• MCP server — kb_query / kb_add / kb_update / kb_status tools over stdio or streamable HTTP. Each call drives an internal LLM agent with the OKF spec in its system prompt.

• Web UI — browse the bundle (tree, concept viewer, update log, conformance badge) and chat with the same agent to test it. Tool calls render inline so you can watch it work.

• CLI — pnpm agent:query "..." / pnpm agent:mutate "..." smoke entries.

Design rule: conformance is enforced in code, not prompts. The deterministic bundle layer validates frontmatter (type required), regenerates index.md files, appends log.md entries (newest-first, spec §7), and sandboxes all paths to the bundle root. The LLM decides what to change; the code guarantees the result is a conformant bundle.

Stack

pnpm monorepo:

Providers (env-selected, swappable per chat): Anthropic (default), OpenRouter, llamacpp (llama.cpp llama-server / llama-swap — model auto-discovered from /v1/models, loaded model preferred), local (any other OpenAI-compatible endpoint).

llama.cpp

# on the inference box — --jinja enables OpenAI-style tool calling
llama-server -m model.gguf --jinja --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8080

# here — no model id needed, it's discovered
LLM_PROVIDER=llamacpp LLAMACPP_BASE_URL=http://inference-box:8080 \
BUNDLE_ROOT=./sample-bundle node packages/server/dist/index.js

Works behind llama-swap too: discovery prefers the currently loaded model so a query doesn't trigger a multi-minute model swap. Pin a specific model with LLM_MODEL=.

Quick start

pnpm install
pnpm build
cp .env.example .env   # add your API key

BUNDLE_ROOT=./sample-bundle ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-... node packages/server/dist/index.js
# → http://localhost:3800  (web UI + /api + /mcp)

Dev mode (server on :3800, Vite HMR on :5180 with proxy):

BUNDLE_ROOT=./sample-bundle pnpm --filter @okf-agent/server dev
pnpm --filter @okf-agent/web dev

MCP registration (Claude Code / Desktop)

claude mcp add okf-kb \
  -e BUNDLE_ROOT=/path/to/your/bundle \
  -e ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-... \
  -- node /path/to/okf-agent/packages/server/dist/mcp/stdio.js

Or point an HTTP MCP client at http://host:3800/mcp.

Docker

docker compose up --build
# bundle is a volume mount — point ./sample-bundle at any OKF bundle

Tests

pnpm test                                  # core: 15 tests (spec §5/§6/§7/§9, sandbox, search, concurrency)
pnpm --filter @okf-agent/server exec tsx scripts/mcp-smoke.mts   # MCP stdio round-trip (needs SMOKE_BUNDLE + an API key)

Environment

See .env.example. BUNDLE_ROOT is required; GIT_AUTOCOMMIT=true commits every mutation.
