What can Handover import?
Handover can ingest a GitHub folder, a signed HTTP payload, a Reporter-compatible publication, or an OKF bundle. Each import records provider provenance and resolves to an attributable Handover revision.
What can Handover export?
An immutable revision can be delivered to GitHub or a signed HTTP receiver. Export jobs are durable and idempotent, so retrying the same revision and destination does not create a second logical delivery.
What is OKF?
OKF means Open Knowledge Format. Handover uses it as a portable Markdown and frontmatter bundle with an index and log. It is an interchange format, not Handover's canonical database model.
Does GitHub become the source of truth?
No. GitHub is an optional import and export connector. Handover keeps canonical revision metadata in D1 and content-addressed artifact bodies in R2.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can provider outages block a Handover write?
No. Canonical writes complete independently and delivery jobs can retry when the provider recovers.
Are repeated imports duplicated?
Provider import IDs and source configuration act as provenance and idempotency keys to prevent accidental duplicate revisions.
