Score: 6.5/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 7, Documentation: 6, Utility: 6)

Loom is a Markdown-native knowledge graph protocol for coding agents, defining project layers and workflows to move agent state from context windows into the repository itself. It innovatively combines familiar concepts like specs, tickets, and research into a coherent composition that prevents context drift and scope creep. The project offers a novel approach to structuring long-running agent workflows, but remains early-stage with limited adoption.

Target audience: backend devs, devops, ai engineers
