Dimensions
Interface surface 0 absent Not yet: A programmatic surface exists (routes, a CLI or a library).
Can another program use it through a documented, machine-readable surface?
- next: L1 A programmatic surface exists (routes, a CLI or a library). (no service, CLI, library or frontend detected)
none ladder · level 0
- ✗ L1 A programmatic surface exists (routes, a CLI or a library). no service, CLI, library or frontend detected
Contract stability n/a Not applicable: no service, cli, library, desktop or format surface.
Can integrators rely on it not changing under them?
Events n/a Not applicable: no service and no long-running CLI mode (batch CLIs, libraries and desktop apps have no events).
Can others react to state changes without polling?
Identity n/a Not applicable: uses no credentials and has no service surface.
Can a machine act with its own revocable, least-privilege identity?
Data portability n/a Not applicable: owns no persistent data.
Can its data get in and out, in bulk, in open formats, with an explicit schema?
Agent ergonomics n/a Not applicable: no service or cli or library or desktop surface.
Can an automated caller use it without guessing, and recover from failure?
Embeddability n/a Not applicable: no service or cli or library or desktop surface.
Can another system run and compose it without a human?
Extensibility 0 absent Not yet: Internal seams: a registry, registration function or plugin manager.
Can behaviour be added without modifying the code?
- next: L1 Internal seams: a registry, registration function or plugin manager. (no registry or registration function)
all ladder · level 0
- ✗ L1 Internal seams: a registry, registration function or plugin manager. no registry or registration function
- ✗ L2 The docs show how to add behaviour through those seams (even in-tree). no registration functions to document
- ✗ L3 Out-of-tree extensions are discovered (entry points, a plugin directory, configuration) without editing the package. extensions must be added inside the package
- ✗ L4 The extension API is versioned, has lifecycle hooks, and has example extensions. the extension API isn't versioned
Observability n/a Not applicable: no service or cli or library or desktop surface.
Can an operator, or an orchestrating agent, tell whether it works and why not?
Change legibility 2 partial CI runs the tests; applications pin dependencies (libraries and zero-dependency projects are exempt).
Can an agent change it safely with limited context?
- next: L3 At least 90% of modules fit 32k tokens and no file exceeds 12k; test/source token ratio at least 0.3; at least 70% of the code is typed. (97% of modules fit 32k tokens; 2 files over 12k)
