Specified
Interfaces, permission model, evidence requirements, failure modes and the conformance checks a release must pass.
Knowledge & context · Concept
Capabilities with boundaries attached.
Each capability in EnterpriseCDI is specified as a contract: scope, permission, evidence and failure behaviour.
01
The five contracts
Numbered for reference; the order is not a priority.
- 01. Data acquisition and integration
-
Defined as a scoped contract: the product states what it may touch, what it may change and what it must record.
Operators can inspect the capability before it runs and review its record afterwards.
Surfaces REST · MCP · CLI
- 02. Context catalog and provenance
-
Specified with its own failure modes, limits and evidence requirements before it is exposed to an agent.
The same capability is reachable from the application, the API and the agent surface without a second implementation.

- 03. Entity resolution and knowledge graphs
-
Specified with its own failure modes, limits and evidence requirements before it is exposed to an agent.
The same capability is reachable from the application, the API and the agent surface without a second implementation.

- 04. Quality and lineage governance
-
Implemented through one permission model that applies to the human interface and the machine interface alike.
Scope is attached to the capability, not to the caller, so delegation does not widen it silently.

- 05. Context APIs and MCP delivery
-
Defined as a scoped contract: the product states what it may touch, what it may change and what it must record.
Operators can inspect the capability before it runs and review its record afterwards.

What is specified, and what is not
A capability in a specification is not a shipped feature.
Not claimed
Running deployments, measured performance, third-party certifications or integration approvals.
