The system
How it fits together
Most components are standalone. What holds them together is one shared path and a clear line between the public slice and the private system.
A slice, not the whole
Plectis is a cross-section of a larger system. What's here runs on its own; the larger working environment stays out of the public tree. Each component is chosen because it can be understood and run without that context.
The shared path
However different the areas look, most components bind to one shared path. It runs from a project on disk through to an explanation you can read and an assimilation loop that feeds the next pass:
A component reads a project, finds the right pattern and the standard it answers to, follows a route to do some work, records the events and the evidence they produced, reaches a plain explanation, and feeds assimilation back into the system. That repetition is what makes a large system navigable.
