By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

The format requires only a 'type' field in the frontmatter, with 'title', 'description', 'resource', and 'tags' being recommended optional fields. The specification also includes optional fields for trust, lifecycle, and provenance, and outlines conformance rules such as ensuring all non-reserved Markdown files have parseable YAML frontmatter with a non-empty type.
