Portability: the ability of a knowledge graph to survive

Portability: the ability of a knowledge graph to survive tool changes, be readable without specialized software, and be reconstructible from exported files using only plain text editors

Why This Is a Definition

This definition precisely establishes the semantic boundary of 'portability' by specifying the conditions under which knowledge graphs survive tool changes. It identifies the genus (survival of knowledge structures), differentia (readability without software, reconstructibility from exports), and distinguishes it from related concepts like tool dependency. The definition is precise enough to distinguish from mere accessibility or backup.

The graph outlives any single organizing system

Filing systems come and go but a well-linked graph retains its value regardless of how you browse it.
