Glossary
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Bindle | Provider-agnostic packed app: services, resources, wiring, policy intent |
| Camp | Environment shape + runtime requirements; current home address (not provider selection) |
| Yard | Provider selection point + camps; control-plane scope (policy, identity, reconciliation) |
| Junction | Cross-yard federation; peer yards, no shared mutable state |
| Conductor / Broker | Policy-governed placement authority (Conductor) |
| Station | Hard control-plane isolation boundary a Conductor occupies |
| Rail | Content-addressed Station profile/bootstrap pin |
| Trail | App-owned continuous migration recipe |
| OpenFeature | CNCF flag evaluation API; sole public app flag surface under Harness |
| Matching | Resource definition + placement selection process |
| ResourceActor | Single-writer reconcilers for infrastructure resources |
| Gatekeeper | Composite deploy gate: contracts + policy + obligations + cost (+ more) |
| Contract IR | Versioned BoundaryContract between producer and consumer edges |
| EffectSpec | Optional side-effect annotation (purity + domains) on a contract |
| EffectManifest | Exportable summary of a contract’s effects |
| ResilienceProfile | Secondary resiliency metadata (retry/timeout/…); not a primary noun |
| EventStore | Append-only log port for domain/control facts |
| DurableEventStore | EventStore + positions, commit-with-effects, durable checkpoints |
| EventPosition | Partition-local monotonic store position (bigint) |
| SQLite partition | One DB file, one active writer; scale by partitions |
| ActorHost | Single-writer lease + fencing token for aggregates |
| fenceToken | Monotonic lease epoch (bigint) paired with stream owner_epoch |
| Streamer | High-volume frame journal outside the domain event log |
| Queue | Deferred work port with leases and idempotency |
| Clock | Deterministic time port for workflows and tests |
| Crew | Built-in operator agents in the Yard |
| A2H | Agent-to-human handoff with obligation deadlines |
| Runbook | Trigger → diagnose → gated fix, event-sourced |
| PACT | Consumer-driven interaction tests under Contract IR |
| Bridge | Session-scoped local/remote boundary routing modes |
| Harness | Flags / progressive delivery / experiments plane |
| Lane | Sandbox isolation for experimental traffic/contracts |
| Golden suite | Signed multi-check deploy gate bundle |
| SVID | Workload/agent SPIFFE-style identity document |
| Relay | Outbound network proxy keeping cloud creds in-boundary — not an agent |
| Named endpoint | Hierarchical DNS-valid host under .hobo.localhost / .hobo.test |
| Resource intent | Provider-neutral desired resource used in planning/FinOps routing |
| Showback | Usage attribution projection — not an invoice by itself |
| Secretless-first | Prefer federation/bindings over stored secrets |
| can-deploy | Compatibility matrix diagnostic for producer/consumer skew |
| can-trail | Gate dimension for Trail readiness |
| WIT | Wasm Interface Types — portability contract for capabilities (wRPC) |
| App Kit (Kit) | Bindle-declared application surface (api, web, service, ui, websocket, job, wasm-component). Session Replay default-on. |
| Infra Kit | Bindle port/infra resource (kv, bucket, queue, …) — not an entrypoint host; no default Session Replay |
| Session Replay | Privacy-first DOM/session reconstruction on every App Kit (Session Replay, ); replay.* — not event-log replay |
| Messaging | Backend-agnostic publish/subscribe over the messaging port / topic() with delivery guarantees, consumer groups, DLQ |
| Kafka capability provider | Kafka provider exporting the messaging port for Kafka-compatible brokers; secretless bindings |
| Dapr runtime adapter | Optional optional Dapr runtime Camp runtime realizing ActorHost + pubsub; never the default |
| Event-log replay | Folding durable EventStore facts for projections/audit — different from Session Replay |
