The tool is local-first, uses plain Markdown and Git, and requires no account or cloud service.", "body_md": "Long-running repositories collect Markdown files that disagree about what is current. Once Codex, Claude, and humans work across many sessions, an old architecture note can quietly become \"the plan\" again.\n\nMarkdown Gatekeeper keeps one current revision per topic. Competing docs stay proposals; superseded sources remain recoverable.\n\nLocal-first. Plain Markdown and Git.
