Domain Bundle Authoring

This guide focuses on workflow.

Authoritative field definitions, constraints, and validation semantics live in the Domain Bundle reference section.

Start Here

Section titled “Start Here”
  1. Read the reference index: Domain Bundle Reference.
  2. Choose the artifact you are authoring:
  3. Use starter templates from Authoring Examples.
Section titled “Recommended Authoring Flow”
  1. Create cerebrum.md with root identity, lifecycle, and artifact references.
  2. Create one substrate-definition artifact for each referenced id.
  3. Set lamina to the leaf layer only and let inheritance resolve parent layers.
  4. Add modulation.modulators entries only for behavior that differs from lamina defaults.
  5. Validate against Validation Rules.
