  "abstract": "The GlueX experiment at Jefferson Lab is well suited for exclusive studies of strangeness production, combining a linearly polarized photon beam at $8.0 < E_γ< 8.8$ GeV with a large-acceptance detector that reconstructs weakly decaying hyperons. We outline a research program built on three aspects: (i) spectroscopy of strange mesons, where many excited $K^*$ states remain unestablished and crypto-exotic strange hybrids must be identified from combined spectrum and decay information, anchored by the $K^*(892)$ as a standard candle; (ii) spin dynamics, where the first precise measurements of the complete spin-density matrix elements in the photoproduced $K^*(892)Λ$ system beyond the Schilling formalism constrain the $t$-channel strange production mechanism; and (iii) hadronization, probed through the newly published $p\\bar{p}$, $Λ\\barΛ$, and $p\\barΛ$ photoproduction cross sections and emerging $Λ\\barΛ$ spin-correlation measurements. We place these efforts in the context of the broader GlueX strangeness program and give an outlook toward the high-statistics GlueX-II era.",
