forgeplan fpf section

forgeplan fpf section <ID> prints the full body of one First Principles Framework section, addressed by its canonical ID (like B.3 or A.1.2). It’s the less of the FPF KB — use it when a search result is interesting and you want to read the whole thing.

  • After a promising fpf search hit — read the full section, not just the snippet.
  • When a methodology doc or forgeplan reason output cites an FPF ID — jump straight to the source.
  • While writing ADRs or RFCs — quote the section you’re relying on verbatim.
forgeplan fpf section [OPTIONS] <ID>
<ID> Section ID (e.g. "B.3", "C.2.2")
--summary Show summary only (first 500 chars)
-h, --help Print help
-V, --version Print version
Terminal window
# Trust calculus (the FPF B.3 section that defines R_eff semantics)
forgeplan fpf section B.3
# Just the first 500 chars when you only need the gist
forgeplan fpf section B.3 --summary
# Explore/exploit reasoning
forgeplan fpf section B.4
# ADI cycle
forgeplan fpf section C.1

Sections are the atomic unit of the FPF KB. They’re what fpf search ranks, what fpf ingest chunks, what fpf check cites when explaining why a rule matched, and what forgeplan reason --fpf pulls in as context.

A typical workflow:

Terminal window
forgeplan fpf search "congruence level" # find candidates
forgeplan fpf section B.3 # read the winner in full
forgeplan new adr "Evidence grading policy"
# ...cite B.3 in the ADR body
