Status: Canonical index
Key ADRs
- Platform Lock v1.0.
- Implementation Contract v1.1.
- Authenticated Connector Marketplace, Binding Model, and Spine Promotion.

Kernel glossary
| Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
| WORK | An objective moving through state |
| CONTEXT | Minimum connected state needed to understand current work |
| SPINE | Canonical connected model of operational work state |
| CONTINUITY | Bounded preservation and transfer of relevant context |
| WORKBENCH | Role-specific human projection of work and context |
| TWIN | Non-authoritative cognitive participant |
| CAPABILITY | Registered operation over work state |
| GOVERNANCE | Authority that permits or denies consequence |
| HERMES | Coordinator of authorised execution |
| SYNC | Reconciliation across connected systems |
| BRIDGE | Governed exchange boundary |
| OUTCOME | Observed result that may become canonical state |
Frozen invariants
- Twin is a Workbench capability, not a panel.
- The user does not restate known context.
- Memory informs truth; Spine owns truth.
- Confidence does not grant authority.
- Twin prefers silence.
- Workbench projects capabilities; it does not duplicate tools.
- One platform, one boundary, different projections.
- Product is broad underneath and narrow at the surface.
- Pipeline is the sole canonical writer.
- Flow D binds every Flow A/B/C event to tenant and authority context.
- Triage cannot authorize or commit its own candidates.
- Aging never promotes operational state into canonical truth.
- Department, role and industry never create physical storage partitions.
- Governance and Hermes gate execution.
- Public MCP is exactly nineteen semantic tools.
- Every operational connector is bound to user, account, tenant, provider
workspace, Spine Connection, and compatible schema set.
Superseded concepts
- “IW Continuity Bridge” as the product name → product is IntegrateWise.
- L1/L2/L4/L7 in user-facing navigation → one Workbench surface.
- Twin as a permanent panel or sidebar destination → Silent Twin.
- Supabase as the canonical product truth store → Neon through Pipeline.
- D1 as business truth → bounded operational state only.
- Descope as launch browser identity → Clerk.
- browser-owned connector mutation → authenticated Gateway binding.
- provider-name array as proof of connection → strict binding and schema evidence.
- sixty-five public marketplace apps → classified catalog and selected direct apps.
- assumed host credential inheritance → explicit delegated/orchestrated proof or
direct fallback. - “Co-worker” as a second runtime → Twin is the contextual AI Co-worker behavior.
- one Worker or database per department → tenant entity model plus RBAC
projections. - Workers for Platforms as mandatory multi-tenancy → optional isolated
customer/agent code runtime. - age-based canonical promotion → policy/evidence/authority-based promotion.
