itsOmSarraf posted "There's no moat gang, it's all a .md file", with a screenshot showing an agent system's file tree: ACTIONPROTOCOL.md, AGENTS.md, MASTERCONTEXT.md, PROMPTINJECTIONDEFENSE.md, PRIVACYARCHITECTURE.md, THREATMODEL.md and dozens more Markdown files. The resonant joke: many agent products' core asset is carefully crafted prompts and spec docs rather than the model itself.
