Expression

An outward artifact of structured meaning; on this site every published expression also has its own canonical node.

Canonical graph nodeexpression

Meaning made useful

An expression may be an article, tutorial, reference, diagram, or application artifact. The broader idea is not limited to web pages. This site currently implements a publishing collection of articles and resources.

One file, one canonical record

Expressions live under content/expressions/{pillar}/{cluster}/{expression}.md. The root node supplies semantic identity; Markdown supplies the reading experience. Do not maintain a second copy of that node under content/graph/.

A generated artifact is not automatically new evidence. Review its facts and relationships before treating it as an accepted part of the model.
