HCFS - Hierarchical Context File System
Context-Aware Hierarchical Context File System (HCFS): Unifying file system paths with context blobs for agentic AI cognition
Overview
HCFS is a virtual filesystem layer that maps hierarchical paths to context blobs, enabling agentic AI systems to navigate and share context in a structured, hierarchical manner. It combines the intuitive nature of file system navigation with semantic context storage and retrieval.
Key Features
- Virtual Filesystem Layer: Standard POSIX-style directory navigation backed by context blobs
- Context Database Backend: Versioned context storage with hierarchical inheritance
- Semantic Indexing: Embeddings and BM25 hybrid ranking for context relevance
- Agent APIs: Syscall-style APIs for context navigation, retrieval, and publishing
- Decentralized Context Sharing: Agents can publish/subscribe to context updates by path
Quick Start
This project is currently in the planning and research phase. See PROJECT_PLAN.md for detailed architecture and implementation timeline.
