# README — start here

> Entry point for this demo hub.

## What is this

A working hub belonging to a fictional founder building a personal-knowledge layer for the AI era. The content is real-shaped: actual decisions, actual research notes, actual launch planning. Click around like you would your own hub.

## What's in here

- **50 documents** spread across 7 folders + 13 at the root level.
- **7 bundles**, including one private (the financials vault), one restricted-access (engineering decisions), and five public.
- **A concept index** auto-derived from the content — every key term has a page at `/hub/demo/concepts/{slug}`.
- **The hub URL itself** (`mdfy.app/hub/demo`) is paste-able into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or Codex. Try it.

## How to use the demo

1. Pick a folder in the sidebar. Each has a coherent theme.
2. Open a bundle. Watch the canvas paint the pre-computed analysis (themes, insights, document summaries, reading order).
3. Try the search affordance (Cmd-K, type a domain term). Hub-scoped semantic recall.
4. Paste the URL `mdfy.app/hub/demo` into your favourite AI tool. Ask it a question about the hub. Verify it answers from the hub.

## What you can't do

- The demo account is read-only-feeling — anyone who signs in can browse it, but the canonical content is owned by `demo@mdfy.app`. You can fork docs (Duplicate to edit) and they become yours.
- Private docs in the "Private Vault" folder are intentionally inaccessible to anyone except the owner. Same with the "Financials + runway" bundle. That's not a bug; it's the demonstration of the permission model.

## The real reason this hub exists

So that a reviewer evaluating mdfy in 5-10 minutes can land in a hub that looks like a working founder's brain and form an honest opinion about whether mdfy makes sense as a product. Nothing in this hub is filler.

If you find a doc that feels like filler, file an issue (or just paste it back at the founder). It'll get rewritten.

## Concepts in this document
- **AI tool integration** _(concept)_
  Ability to paste hub URL directly into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or Codex for question-answering against the hub.
- **mdfy hub** _(entity)_
  The core platform being demonstrated; a personal-knowledge layer tool for organizing and sharing documents.
- **Concept index** _(concept)_
  The map layer that shows which concepts appear across documents, enabling strategic fetching before committing to prose.
- **Bundle** _(concept)_
  mdfy's payload format containing canvas analysis, themes, insights, and concept relations for a project.
- **personal-knowledge layer** _(concept)_
  The foundational idea behind mdfy — a system for capturing, organizing, and surfacing knowledge for the AI era.
- **demo hub** _(entity)_
  A fictional founder's working knowledge base used to evaluate mdfy's utility and design in a realistic context.
- **semantic search** _(concept)_
  Hub-scoped search affordance (Cmd-K) enabling domain-term recall across the knowledge base.
- **permission model** _(concept)_
  Access control system distinguishing between read-only, private, and restricted-access content within the hub.
- **document duplication** _(concept)_
  Fork mechanism allowing users to copy and own demo documents for personal editing.
- **read-only access** _(tag)_
  Default state for demo account visitors; full browsing capability without editing the canonical content.

## Concept relations (within this doc's concepts)
- **Bundle** contains **Concept index**
- **permission model** enforces **read-only access**
- **demo hub** demonstrates **mdfy hub**
- **AI tool integration** queries **mdfy hub**
- **mdfy hub** implements **personal-knowledge layer**
- **semantic search** references **Concept index**
- **document duplication** bypasses **read-only access**
