Dependency Rule

Core owns business truth. Other modules may call core, but core must not depend on CLI, provider adapters, or hook runtime.

CLI -> core/adapters/hook-runtime
hook-runtime -> core
provider adapters -> core schemas
skill -> CLI

packages/core/src/matcher.ts owns prompt decomposition, tokenization, query variants, and query plans. packages/core/src/retrieval.ts owns active-card index reads, scoring, diversification, and context rendering. This split keeps the user-prompt understanding layer independently testable and tunable.

The package is authored in TypeScript and published as built ESM under dist/. The npm package does not include the Bun standalone binary by default; Bun binary output is generated separately under build/ome for release-asset validation.

Runtime Rule

Hook runtime must be fast and fail-open:

• no LLM call;
• no network call;
• no session scan;
• no active card writes;
• strict timeout;
• bounded additional context.

Slow work belongs in reflect, curation, eval, or maintenance commands.

Storage Rule

All persistent writes must go through core storage helpers. Provider adapters and hooks must not directly modify card files.

Provider Rule

Provider differences belong at the edge:

• hook input parsing;
• hook output shape;
• hook setup/status paths;
• session scan formats.

Retrieval, scoring, context budgeting, stats, and card lifecycle must remain provider-neutral.
