Fide Vocabulary

Canonical vocabulary and registry for foundational Fide entity and reference typing.

The Fide Vocabulary defines the canonical registry for:

• valid entity types
• valid reference types
• allowed entity-type/reference-type combinations
• entity-specific identifier rules

These definitions are used by:

• Fide ID
• Fide Context Protocol
• generated SDKs and docs derived from this repository

Public docs are published at:

• fide.work/docs/vocabulary

Status

This repository is currently in alpha.

• The active spec line is spec/v0/.
• v0 is mutable and may change incompatibly.
• v1 should be introduced only when the vocabulary model and compatibility expectations are intentionally stable.

Source Of Truth

The normative source of truth for the current alpha line is:

• spec/v0/vocabulary.json

Generated SDK and docs artifacts derive from that file.

Repository Structure
