file
The object file, and every primitive it appears in. This page is a query, not a definition.
A node carries no inherent meaning. What
file means here emerges from the edges traceable from it, and confidence in that meaning is proportional to how richly it is connected. It is connected to 5 of 23 primitives here. That, and not the sentence above, is what it means. The discipline this follows.The 5 primitives with this object

|---|---|---|---|---|
delete.file.host | Delete files anywhere the account can reach | delete.file.host | no | 5 of 17 |
read.file.host | Read any file the account can reach | read.file.host | no | 11 of 17 |
read.file.project | Read the project it is working on | read.file.project | yes | 7 of 17 |
write.file.host | Change any file the account can reach | write.file.host | with-effort | 8 of 17 |
