System summary:
1. Reghar operates through Mission Control, fs-next CLI, Telegram, and Discord.
2. Mission Control is a window into state. It is not authority.
3. Authority lives in Git, specs, state, proof packets, data refs, live checks, and explicit approvals.
4. Hermes handles communication and coordination. OpenClaw handles execution, coding, and automation.
5. Both agents use CLI engines such as Codex CLI, Claude CLI, and gstack skills. They do not get automatic authority to mutate external systems.
6. GBrain is retrieval context, not truth. Wiki canon is human-readable approved knowledge.
7. Legacy GBrain and old wiki sources are read-only until reviewed with the migration rubric.
8. Approved knowledge becomes GBrain promotion bundles with source cards, synthesis, retrieval fixtures, proof, and data refs.
9. External data lives under /Volumes/FounderOSData/foundersystem-next-data, separated from the system repo.
10. External writes happen only through scoped promotion commands with exact approval and rollback.
11. Deploys, public sends, credential expansion, arbitrary /Volumes writes, and project-store promotion are denied by default.

Control plane: contracts, state, proof, approvals.

Knowledge: retrieval and canon, never final authority.

Data plane: external storage, scoped writes only.

Denied by default: unsafe mutation and old runtime coupling.

1. Control Plane

`foundersystem-next` stores the system: specs, schemas, CLI, Mission Control, state, proof packets, and runtime contracts. It should stay lean and not become the data lake.

2. Data Plane

`/Volumes/FounderOSData/foundersystem-next-data` stores approved data: GBrain promotions, wiki canon, lane drafts, and project work. Direct writes remain blocked except through scoped promotion/rollback.

3. Agents

Hermes and OpenClaw are Next-owned local services. They can observe, draft, run bounded local work, and produce proof. Broader autonomy still needs explicit gates.

4. GBrain

GBrain retrieves source-backed context. The new `ai_systems_kb` bundle is promoted knowledge, but Git, proof packets, live checks, and approvals stay higher authority.

5. Promotion

Plan or packet first.
Manifest and checksum recorded.
Exact approval required.
Rollback path recorded.

6. Safety Boundary

No arbitrary `/Volumes` writes.
No deploy/send by default.
No credential expansion by default.
No old-runtime authority.
