Exponential freshness decay formula turns data trust into a computable metric instead of binary.
Strengths
- •Exponential decay formula quantifies reliability over time per node type.
- •Provenance metadata forces explicit confidence scores and verification sources.
- •Self-hosted kos.json puts entity control in owner's hands, not intermediaries.
Weaknesses
- •Requires AI agent adoption; currently just a spec without major integrations.
- •No built-in distribution network; relies on agents crawling .well-known endpoints.
