Read online or use your own copies

Read Core on fpf.tools, or choose a domain publication and open the required pattern. The first method links above open that reading service. GitHub cannot display the complete Core and may truncate large DPFs; a link to a valid heading does not remove that limit.

For the source, open the Core Markdown file and its history or download Core as raw Markdown. Framework tables on these pages provide Markdown source links and, where available, online reading links. On fpf.tools, Copy and source identifies the repository edition behind the displayed passage. Check source editions and update status when the version matters; the service may lag behind GitHub. Search and MCP connection instructions provide other ways to reach the material.

For local use, download or clone this repository. Keep FPF-Spec.md, FPF-LIBRARY-REFERENCE.md, USING-FPF.md, the licensing files and DPFs/ in their existing arrangement. A selected subset is also usable: include the actual supplying frameworks needed by your question, not just links to unavailable files. Using FPF Library explains access and selection.

Work with an AI assistant

Give the assistant access to the full relevant texts, your actual situation, constraints and observations. Put this instruction in the project settings or instruction file the agent actually reads, replacing fpf/ with your location:

Use FPF Library from fpf/. Before applying its methods, read fpf/USING-FPF.md and follow its guidance. Help obtain the result our work needs. Explain the reasoning in our working language, identify the patterns used, and distinguish source claims, assumptions and missing evidence.

Then ask a concrete question. For example: “Our team can deliver the current product but not the proposed variant. Help compare acquiring an external result, developing our capability and changing the offering. What information could change that choice?”

An assistant can retrieve methods, calculate, compare alternatives, draft and challenge reasoning. Its fluent answer does not establish an observed fact, a new capability, permission, a commitment or an implemented system. Check the output against the actual work, evidence and applicable decision authority. FPF Library is a method library, not an agent runtime or a grant of autonomous authority. It is intended for human use as well as AI-assisted work, across physical, organizational, intellectual and embodied practices.
