Read from the board that exists. Eight sections; four are about work and workers and are held back with that domain. The other four are the mesh itself, and everything behind the main one already exists here — it is a reader, not a second source of truth. The constraint is the point of writing this down now. The existing board is one service that reads every context's database, because that is the shortest path to a page showing all of them at once. That is ADR 0008 violated by the one component with a reason to violate it, and the cost is the same one the shared library has: a boundary nothing may cross is a boundary that can move, and one thing crossing it is enough to freeze it. So a board reads through interfaces and stores nothing. If a question is slow, the answer belongs in the context that owns it, where everything else asking gets it too.
03-DESIGN / 01-to-be
The mesh being built toward. Every statement here traces to a record in
02-DECISIONS/; nothing arrives by drafting.
A document here describes an intention. What currently runs is in
00-as-is/, and the two are never merged — when something ships, the as-is
document is written and this one's status becomes implemented.

ADR 0006
settles the list at seven;
connectivityis the first written in full (08) and the other six do not exist yet. The work breakdown says in what order they are needed. Domain grouping outside the core.Not needed. ADR 0009 is superseded by ADR 0009: there is no domain module to group into, so there is no domain list to settle. Relationships are edges, and grouping is a tag and a query.
