Establishes that control flows strictly downward through the execution stack (Dispatch → Infrastructure → Sandbox → Harness → Runtime) and no layer may influence layers above it. Distinguishes prohibited upward control flow from permitted upward data flow (telemetry, failure signals). Renames "Work Coordinator" to "Agent Dispatch and Coordination Layer" for clarity. Adds an "Execution Stack" section to architecture.md. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Deterministic code paths (agent runtime wrapper and skill scripts) use a shared library (forgekit) for forge-portable operations. Agents themselves use native forge CLIs — LLMs adapt naturally to the forge they're working with. Updates architecture.md: adds Forge Abstraction Layer section, updates Identity Provider for forgekit credential issuance, generalizes dispatch layer to use forge-neutral language.

GitHub Actions is the first execution platform, serving as both trigger and infrastructure. A platform-agnostic entry point ensures nothing below the infrastructure layer knows it's running on GH Actions. Kubernetes is the anticipated second platform. Updates architecture.md: resolves the initial platform question in Agent Infrastructure, adds GH Actions trigger note to Agent Dispatch and Coordination Layer.

Proposes using GitHub reusable workflows so secrets (GitHub App private key) live only in the .fullsend repo, structurally inaccessible to enrolled repos. Marked undecided pending an experiment to verify that workflow_call actually provides this isolation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
… (undecided) Proposes GitHub App installation tokens as the credential mechanism for agents — short-lived, repo-scoped, with per-role permission scoping. The approach is proven (experiment #67) but the credential delivery mechanism depends on ADR 0008's reusable workflow validation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
