Privacy Model

The reference system is used only to derive reusable architecture and behavior. Its private notes, identities, organizations, projects, histories, inventories, credentials, and operational state are not included. Generated sensitive material defaults to internal or restricted handling. External integrations start as `Not configured`.

Generated Knowledge OS repositories are private by default. They may contain identity, business, project, daily, personal, attachment, and installation metadata. Do not connect a generated system to a public remote without a separate content review.

Project Structure

• QUESTIONNAIRE.md: interactive and answer-file questions.
• installer/: schema, examples, state template, and installation engine.
• templates/: neutral source templates.
