The article is a shape
This post was not typed into a CMS — and this sentence arrived by webhook. It is a markdown file in a public repository, and everything you are reading is a projection of that file.
The pipeline it rides:
- Git holds the source — the body, the front-matter, the hashtags, the image ALT text. Editing is a diff; a bad edit is a revert.
- Webflow renders it — the article lands in the Docs collection with its category, its hashtag references, and its
source-urlprovenance stamp. - Shopify mirrors it as a metaobject, readable by the storefront and its AI agents.
- AEM mirrors it as a Content Fragment, served headlessly from the publish tier.
Ownership stays honest
The ingest only manages items it created. An article authored in Webflow carries no repository source-url, and the ingest will never touch it. Two origins, one collection, zero overwrites.
Why hashtags are records
The tags on this post are not strings — they are references into a Hashtags collection whose rows carry the canonical tag-key (content:kb/specs), the kind, and the JSON-LD anchor. A tag is data you can join on, not decoration.
