Thousand launches Git docs with folder-level access
Thousand is a documentation engineering platform built around a single Git repository of Markdown files designed to serve both human teammates and autonomous AI agents. Addressing Git's traditional all-or-nothing permission structure, Thousand introduces folder-level access control so teammates, external guests, and bot tokens only access permitted directories while preserving direct Markdown workflows.
Git-backed documentation typically struggles because non-technical teams reject terminal workflows while Git lacks granular security boundaries; Thousand ingeniously solves both by making folder-scoped access and AI agent integration native to the repo.
- –Path-Level Access Enforcement: Overcomes Git's binary repository permissions by tailoring what each human member or AI bot sees down to the directory level.
- –Symmetrical Dual Interface: Non-engineers edit through a collaborative rich-text UI that auto-commits to disk, while agents read raw Markdown and consume dedicated endpoints like /AGENTS.md.
- –Context Aggregation Across Repos: Automatically mirrors doc directories from multiple GitHub or GitLab codebases into a single workspace to keep organizational knowledge synchronized.
- –Zero Vendor Lock-In: Functions as a standard Git remote where running a basic git clone preserves the entire document structure and commit history.
