This repository is the open-source GDS engine and a reusable module. It owns generic schemas, compilers, transactions, adapters, templates and synthetic fixtures. It is not the NDDev estate and must never acquire real organization, tenant, person, host, network, credential-reference or production evidence.
A separately managed private estate pins this repository at
modules/github-device-sync and owns its private policy and topology.
External-estate behavior must bind the estate commit, module lock and exact GDS
gitlink while verifying that embedded templates match the pinned engine
checkout.

- Treat each Git repository as an independent mutation boundary and preserve unrelated branches, worktrees, submodules and dirty changes.
- Prefer direct technical progress and executable invariants over ceremonial gates. Research uncertain implementation details and fix root causes.
- Provider changes remain journaled and exactly verified because that protects correctness and recovery, not because an agent needs procedural supervision.
- Public workflows use GitHub-hosted runners only. Never expose estate runtime, self-hosted labels or private evidence through public refs.
- Keep secrets, runtime state, caches, logs and generated evidence untracked.
- Generated fixtures under
tests/goldenchange only through their generator.
This repository selects the continuous-development policy. Treat broad GitHub CI as asynchronous evidence for ordinary integration, preserve actual outcomes, and run checks relevant to the changed behavior. Release integrity, dependency identity and provider transaction controls remain required.
