Developer Guide

Status: Partially migrated. Architecture, lease-broker verification, and channel-adapter authoring pages are current; other contributor chapters remain unmigrated.

This book is the canonical home for architecture, package and application guides, local development, testing, contribution workflow, and integration authoring. User-facing procedures belong in USER-GUIDE/; operator procedures belong in ADMIN-GUIDE/; API contracts belong in API/.

Current contributor pages

Every promoted page must be added to this index and to SITEMAP.md in the same migration slice.

Migration backlog — not current developer guidance

These are source candidates or stale records, not verified current instructions:

  • archived TUI PRD — contradicted/stale; it references a missing packages/cli, while current TUI code is under packages/mosaic.
  • archived TUI task ledger — historical task ledger; its status and worktree claims require revalidation.
  • _old_structure/guides/dev-guide.md — quarantined historical source; verify paths and commands before promotion. See the documentation catalog for its disposition.

Do not make a legacy or archived page current by linking it from a chapter as if it were already promoted.

Authoring boundary

New developer documentation belongs under one of the chapter directories above. Architecture decisions and RFCs must identify their status and authority; executable behavior must be checked against current code and tests.
