The system map (operator)
Internal operator architecture — the machine, repo, and memory planes across the Starlight estate.
Starlight-Intelligence-System/AGENTS.md, starlight-agent-config/core/doctrine/SYSTEM-SPINE.md, TRUTH.mdOperator reference: This page documents internal estate coordination across
starlight/repos. Looking for customer and developer documentation? Start at What you can do with Starlight or the MCP quickstart.
The three planes
- Machine plane. Workstation health, the shared CDP browser multiplexer (
localhost:9223), and scheduled Windows watchdogs (StarlightHorizon2h/12h/1w,StarlightTaskHealthWatch). - Repo plane. Canonical repositories under
starlight/repos.starlight-agent-config/core/doctrine/SYSTEM-SPINE.mdholds the compiled doctrine spine projected into each harness (CLAUDE.md,AGENTS.md,GEMINI.md). - Memory plane. The six semantic vaults in
Starlight-Intelligence-System/memory/vaults/(Strategic, Technical, Creative, Operational, Wisdom, Horizon) served locally bySisGatewayDaemon(127.0.0.1:5200).
Where each operator question resolves
| Question | Canonical source |
|---|---|
| What is ruled vs. measured vs. open right now? | starlight/TRUTH.md and ops/DIRECTIVE_LEDGER.jsonl |
| What are the ranked objectives (O1–O7)? | starlight/OBJECTIVES.md |
| Which repo and brand owns a surface? | starlight/ecosystem.json and PROPERTIES-REGISTRY.md |
| Which harness owns an active branch or worktree? | tools/lane.mjs and agentic-ops-hub/ops/OPS-LEDGER.md |
| Did a different harness review this PR? | node tools/pr-gate.mjs verify --repo <owner/name> --pr <N> |
One writer per lane
Multiple coding agents operate across the estate concurrently. Every write lane works on an isolated branch (agent/<harness>/<scope> or codex/<scope>), and no PR merges without a cross-harness sign-off bound to the exact head SHA via tools/pr-gate.mjs.
What is live, in preview, or not available
One verified table of what you can use today, what returns plans only, what is in preview, and what does not exist yet.
Agent harness contract (operator)
Internal operator contract — how an agent harness claims a lane, verifies work, passes pr-gate, and records handovers.
