…abulary for cross-cluster + cross-fork ontology negotiation (extends B-0741) AND reference-stack composition layer (extends B-0742) — Aaron-endorsed 2026-05-25 Aaron 2026-05-25 after the B-0748 spectrum research dump: 'KubeVela and OAM seem very interesting to me from an ontology negoation perspective and our reference stack.' OAM (Open Application Model, CNCF; Alibaba+Microsoft 2019) splits app declaration into Components (developer-facing: what the app IS) + Traits (platform-facing: operational policies). The Component/Trait split IS a standard vocabulary that B-0741 cross-cluster+cross-fork ontology negotiation can adopt directly. Mapping to B-0741's 5 negotiation surfaces: - Package ontology → OAM Components + ComponentDefinitions - Hat ontology → OAM Traits + TraitDefinitions - Skill ontology → OAM workflow steps - Category convergence → OAM Component categories + labels - Trust + authority → OAM Trait policies (e.g., RBAC trait) KubeVela sits ABOVE existing reference stack (B-0742) non-disruptively; Vault + SPIRE + cert-manager + ESO + ArgoCD all unchanged. 6 scope items: OAM vocabulary adoption design pass / KubeVela installation in reference stack / OAM as B-0741 negotiation vocabulary / Hat-system + Trait composition (extends B-0731) / CUE templating / Per-fork OAM declaration files. Industry-standards-grounded throughout — same posture as B-0744 (FIDO2/WebAuthn/OIDC at AUTH layer); B-0749 is the same posture at APP-MODEL layer. Composes with B-0741 (provides standard vocab) + B-0742 (sits above reference stack) + B-0731 (Hats compose with Traits) + B-0747 (machine-state can include OAM Component instances) + B-0748 (KubeVela evaluated as middleware in B-0748; this row carves the ontology-negotiation-vocabulary angle Aaron specifically named). P2 priority — substantial substrate-engineering target; composes with multiple in-flight rows. Not P1 because existing reference stack works without OAM; OAM optimizes cross-fork interop + app-model scopes when adopted. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Pull request overview
Adds a new P2 backlog row (B-0749) proposing KubeVela/OAM as (1) a standard vocabulary for cross-cluster/cross-fork ontology negotiation and (2) an application-model composition layer above the existing reference Kubernetes stack, and wires the row into the generated backlog index.
Changes:
- Added
docs/backlog/P2/B-0749-...mdwith frontmatter + detailed scope/justification for OAM Components/Traits as a negotiation vocabulary. - Updated
docs/BACKLOG.mdto include the new B-0749 entry.

Closing as substrate-stale (DIRTY-conflict) per .claude/rules/pr-triage-tiers.md Tier 3 + the discriminator pass below. Discriminator pass:
Disposition: close. The branch content is preserved in git history; re-land path is cherry-pick onto a fresh branch off current main with any ID-collision renumbering needed. This is the same Tier 3 disposition applied to today's #5038 + #5032 (same root cause: 2026-05-25 evening session left ~9 backlog/rule PRs DIRTY when the next morning's iter-5.x + iter-6 work landed and moved main forward). This close is NOT a punt — it's explicit ownership classification per .claude/rules/fighting-past-self-vs-peer-agent-distinguisher-fix-your-own-coordinate-on-peers-dont-punt-by-default.md (recurrence anchor landed today via #5126). The substrate-honest re-land path is documented; the operator-tax of indeterminate DIRTY state is cleared. |

Aaron 2026-05-25 after B-0748 spectrum dump:
Carving the focused OAM-as-negotiation-vocabulary angle out of B-0748's broader spectrum scope.
OAM Component/Trait split maps to B-0741's 5 negotiation surfaces
Composes with reference stack (B-0742) non-disruptively
KubeVela sits ABOVE existing reference stack layers. Vault + SPIRE + cert-manager + ESO + ArgoCD + Cilium + hat-system operator + everything Addison documented in STARTING-POINT.md = all unchanged. KubeVela adds the app-model abstraction layer.
Six independently-shippable scope items
Industry-standards-grounded posture
Today's cascade now includes industry-standards-grounding at multiple layers:
Posture: adopt-standards-everywhere where they compose; invent-protocol only where genuinely new substrate emerges.
