V2 Specifications

These documents explain V2 behavior that is difficult to recover from one source file. They are not API reference or a backlog.

Authority

Authority follows the concern:

Concern	Owner
HTTP operations and transport errors	Protocol endpoint definitions assembled by Server HttpApi
Public domain shapes and durable event payloads	Schema
Runtime behavior and persistence	Core
Contributor-critical regression guardrails	Root AGENTS.md

Current specifications explain cross-module contracts without copying exact types. Decision records explain why a design was selected. Historical documents describe earlier states and may use obsolete names.

Generated clients follow the assembled public HttpApi. GitHub issues own active work; Git history preserves removed plans and scratchpads.

Current Contracts

Document	Job
Session	Explain prompt admission, execution, instructions, compaction, and recovery boundaries.
Tools	Explain tool construction, registration, execution, and outcome laws.

Decision Records

Document	Status	Job
Event stream	Accepted and implemented	Record why public events use one encoded feed with independent queues.
Provider policy	Accepted and implemented	Record provider authorization independently from provider configuration.

Historical Context

Document	Job
Catalog/config/plugin lifecycle	Preserve the option comparison that led to replayable Location-scoped catalog transforms.

Do not add implementation checklists here. Put actionable work in GitHub issues and package-specific contributor guidance next to the code it governs.
