KV Spec Format

    ByteOr pipeline specs use a deterministic key-value text format. This page is the public-hub index into the canonical OSS format reference rather than a second copy of that reference.

    What Matters At A Glance

    • Specs are emitted as deterministic UTF-8 key=value lines.
    • Stable ordering means the same logical spec hashes to the same bytes.
    • The format is intentionally diff-friendly and canonicalizable.
    • Exact field names, model shapes, and validation-aligned structure should come from the OSS reference docs.

    Canonical Published Surfaces
