Progressive Disclosure References

How to organize knowledge so the AI reads only what it needs.

What's here

File	Purpose	When to read
reference-md-pattern.md	How to write effective reference.md files	When creating a new references directory
splitting-knowledge.md	When and how to split knowledge docs	When a doc is getting too long, or deciding structure upfront

When to use this module

• You're creating reference.md files for a new skill
• You're deciding whether to split a knowledge doc
• A knowledge doc has grown past ~150 lines and needs restructuring

Model guidance

• Writing reference.md files: cheap model (it's templated)
• Deciding whether to split: stronger model (requires judgment about cohesion)
