Question
Can a minimal portable control-plane prototype demonstrate the agreed seam before implementation tickets are written?
Use a small event or decision record, a materialized current understanding projection, one primary controller handoff, one bounded worker contract, and one stale-write rejection. The prototype should settle the observable behavior and recovery boundary, not become production code. Record what the final specification must guarantee and what remains deliberately out of scope.
