TL;DR: Built this to stop re-explaining my projects to AI assistants. Now IANA-registered and published on Zenodo/CERN.
.faf is YAML-based - noodles for AI. Human-readable strands of context that any model can parse instantly.
Problem: Every AI session starts cold.
Solution: One file any AI can read.
From the paper:
- 10,000+ projects tested
- 99.7% faster context reconstruction
- Validated with Claude, Gemini, GPT
Journey: Solo dev → IANA MIME type → 20k npm downloads → CERN/Zenodo paper
CLI: npm install -g faf-cli && faf init
Happy to answer questions.
