Context Dock and Knowledge Model

Core Doctrine

QiLife does not separate doing from knowing.

Every major tool view should have a Context Dock showing the knowledge, note/reflection-type QiBits, documents, history, related QiBits, people, money, and AI interpretation relevant to the current item.

Why Not a Separate Wiki

QiLife should embed knowledge next to the work instead of depending on a separate wiki engine.

Knowledge Source Doctrine

Repo docs are canonical during build.

In-app knowledge mirrors and indexes repo docs. Imported repo docs are read-only in the app.
