In https://replicated.wiki/blog/partII this part is very interesting to me:

> Want to keep LLM .md files in a separate overlay, only make them visible on request? Also easy. CRDT gives the freedom in splitting and joining along all the axes.

I now have a bunch of layers of text / markdown: system prompts, AGENTS.md, SKILL.md, plus user tweaks or full out replacements to these on every repo or subproject.

Then we want to do things like update the "root" system prompt and have that applied everywhere.

There are analogies in git, CMS templating systems, software package interfaces and versioning. Doing it all with plain text doesn't feel right to me.

Any other approaches to this problem? Or is Beagle and ASTs and CDRTs really onto something here?
