Structure

Property shape: object property; gmeow:Agent -> gmeow:Entity

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:hasUsed from gmeow:Agent to gmeow:Entity when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Common Companion Terms

gmeow:Agent, gmeow:Entity

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use as the flat shortcut to record that an agent has used a tool, service, or work, when the bare directed fact (optionally with a period on the statement) is enough.

Avoid when

• Avoid it when the usage is itself an occurrent that needs participants, instruments, or outcome — model that as an event — and do not treat it as symmetric (the agent uses the entity, not vice versa).

How to use

• Assert the directed edge from the gmeow:Agent to the used gmeow:Entity; carry the period with gmeow:validFrom/validUntil on the statement.
