Stack Versioning
Your AI stack evolves. Tools get added, removed, or replaced. This article covers how to think about stack versioning and track changes.
Why Versioning Matters
- Audit trail — Know what you used when, for compliance or cost reviews
- Rollback — If a new tool doesn't work, you know what you had before
- Optimization — Compare stacks over time to see what improved
How Hokai Handles It
My Stack shows your current tools. When you add or remove tools, the change is recorded. Session history and match results are stored so you can revisit past recommendations.
Best Practices
- Name stacks clearly — If you maintain multiple stacks (e.g., personal vs. client), use distinct names.
- Export periodically — Export your stack to a spreadsheet or doc for external records.
- Document why — When you replace a tool, note the reason in your own system. Future you will thank you.
The Bottom Line
Stack versioning is about traceability. Hokai keeps your current stack and session history; for formal audits, export and store snapshots elsewhere.
