    Use Cases & Benefits

    • Transforms ontology-driven business semantics into runtime backend services including data access, logic execution, actions, security governance, and observability.
    • Provides a unified, safe, and controllable execution environment that optimizes context handling to improve accuracy and reduce token costs in AI agent workflows.
    • Use for building enterprise-grade AI agents that require precise, explainable decision-making with traceable evidence chains and risk-aware execution.
    • Use for integrating heterogeneous multi-source business data into a coherent knowledge network to enable reliable, context-rich AI reasoning and workflow automation.
    • Use for deploying ontology-driven backend platforms that enforce fine-grained access control and auditability for secure, compliant business process execution.

    From the README

    OpenBKN is an ontology-driven business knowledge network platform. Through ontology modeling, it turns the data and logic scattered across documents, systems, processes, rules, and expert experience into a business knowledge network that agents can understand, execute, and verify — so agents land accurately, safely, and reliably in real business environments, not just generating answers but continuously creating executable, traceable, and verifiable business value.

    BKN Foundry is the technical foundation of OpenBKN, providing that business knowledge network with unified data access, safe execution, and governance.

    Note: BKN Foundry is a backend-only framework — it does not include a web UI. All interactions are through the CLI, SDK, or API.

    On the target install host, run a system check before deploy.sh. It verifies kernel / sysctl / containerd / kubectl / helm / Node / BKN CLIs and can fix what's missing (each fix is opt-in unless -y):

    Exit codes: 0 OK, 1 any FAIL, 2 only WARN. Use --report=/tmp/preflight.txt to keep a full log.
