MechRegistry
A registry of Mechs: AI agent-curated knowledge bases.
A Mech keeps one validated, ontology-grounded, evidence-backed record per entity, with a LinkML schema and an append-only curation history. AI agents write most of it and people review it. The canonical Mech is DisMech. What is a Mech?
