Status: Stable.
knowledge names knowledge-base retrieval through the host's RAG pipeline. It is a discovery-only reservation: v2 defines no portable operations or payload contract for it.

Contract boundary
A host MAY advertise knowledge as extensions["<org>.knowledge"], where <org> is its registered organization (capabilities.md §3.2). The record is organization-defined, so:
- a client MUST NOT infer portable operations, payloads, or authorization semantics from its presence;
- a pack may name
knowledgeas a dependency only when the host and pack share an out-of-band definition of it.
Conformance
The claims-check witness checks only that the discovery claim is well formed, not runtime behavior. conformance/src/scenarios/v2-ext-family-claims.test.ts records it under openwop.family.knowledge:
- the key
<org>.knowledgematchesextensionsKeyPattern, and<org>is registered and not reserved; - the record is a JSON object;
knowledgeis not also a member of the discovery root.
A host that does not advertise the family records inapplicable. A Stable label on this page therefore means a host at evidence tier 2 or better advertises the reservation correctly. It does not mean two hosts interoperate on it (../README.md).
