KV Spec Format
ByteOr pipeline specs use a deterministic key-value text format owned by the OSS crate workspace. This page is the OSS section entry point for the format reference.
Linked canonical reference
The exact encoding and field-level rules belong to the synced ByteOr OSS reference docs. Use the central KV Spec Format index when you need the cross-repo view.
What Matters At A Glance
- Specs are deterministic UTF-8
key=valuelines - Stable ordering means the same logical spec hashes to the same bytes
- The format is diff-friendly and canonicalizable
- Exact field names and validation-aligned structure come from the OSS reference docs
