Why ObsDog
A view count cannot tell you whether knowledge worked.
Traditional documentation tools show what exists. ObsDog shows how knowledge is discovered, connected, used, evaluated, and maintained in real work.
Search you can inspect
Preserve keywords, phrases, exclusions, filters, rank signals, and explanations.

Separate authored links, AI-suggested relations, backlinks, and observed usage.

Five states.
No convenient shortcuts.
Earlier observations never imply later ones. A block included in agent context is exposed, not used, until a source-bound action occurs.
