Declared compatibility
Compatibility is declared by the source manifest. End-to-end runtime verification is coming, see below.
We're building live execution health for every listing: tool-call success rate, median latency, uptime, and last-checked timestamps, measured, not self-reported. It isn't live yet, so we don't show numbers we can't stand behind.

Constitution Lite
Purpose
Create a small set of project rules before repeated agent work.
When to use
Use when a project will need multiple agent sessions, multiple implementation slices, or repeated decisions about quality, data, autonomy, and simplicity.
Inputs
- Project goal
- Existing
CONTEXT.mdor notes - Known technical constraints
- Team or owner preferences
- Risk areas
Workflow
- Define engineering principles.
- Define testing principles.
- Define data, model, or dashboard principles if relevant.
- Define agent autonomy boundaries.
- Define simplicity rules.
- List forbidden patterns.
- Define how rules may be amended.
- Keep the result short enough to read before implementation.
Outputs
CONSTITUTION.md- Engineering principles
- Testing principles
- Data/model/dashboard principles
- Agent autonomy boundaries
- Simplicity rules
- Forbidden patterns
- Amendment process
Stop conditions
- The rules are clear enough to guide repeated agent work.
- A principle conflicts with the project goal and needs a human decision.
Anti-patterns
- Creating a policy document too long to use.
- Adding rules that cannot change implementation choices.
- Treating temporary preferences as permanent principles.
