Railiance Fabric

Railiance Fabric models the durable infrastructure-responsibility graph of the Railiance netkingdom.

Fabric is bounded by financial and operational accountability: who pays for the infrastructure, who is accountable for keeping it alive, and which durable interfaces create value across fabric and subfabric boundaries.

It holds schemas, discovery tools, registry services, graph queries, and State Hub export contracts for services, machines, repositories, deployables, endpoints, ownership, dependencies, and bindings across Railiance deployment realities.

See docs/FabricDiscoveryAndUpdate.md for the current architecture direction for fabric boundaries, king/lord/tenant ownership, discovery, rebuilds, and update loops.

Validate Declarations

From a checkout with the Python dependencies installed:

railiance-fabric validate .

During early bootstrapping, the local module entry point works too:

PYTHONPATH=. python -m railiance_fabric.cli validate .

The validator loads fabric/ declarations, checks schema conformance, verifies catalog type names, catches missing references/providers, checks active production dependency source links, and warns about dependency cycles.

Financial Fabric Baseline

The current financial Fabric model starts from fabric/financial/railiance-netkingdom.yaml. It defines the Railiance netkingdom, the king, the current lord, the one active Railiance fabric, and the default ownership rules used while Railiance still has one effective payer.

railiance-fabric export --format financial projects the current accepted legacy graph into the railiance.fabric/v1alpha2 / financial-fabric-v1 contract. Repo-local fabric/ declarations remain useful evidence and bootstrap data; they are not the long-term authority for external deployment, ownership, tenant, or utility relations.

See docs/financial-fabric-operator-guide.md for the reset/rebuild refresh loop and State Hub handoff.

Adopt In Another Repo

See docs/adoption-guide.md for the legacy declaration workflow and docs/first-rollout.md for the initial Railiance repo rollout. Treat repo-local declarations as self-description and discovery evidence. Financial fabric membership, ownership, and cross-boundary utility relations are owned by the accountability-root discovery model described in docs/FabricDiscoveryAndUpdate.md.

Next: Ecosystem Registry Service

See docs/ecosystem-registry-service.md for the standards comparison and service direction for registering repos and interacting with the combined ecosystem model. See docs/registry-api.md for the current registry HTTP API.

Start the first registry service slice with:

railiance-fabric-registry --db .railiance-fabric/registry.sqlite3 --port 8765

The initial service exposes repository registration, graph snapshot ingestion, artifact attachment, graph query endpoints, State Hub export, and early Backstage/xRegistry projection endpoints. It stores snapshots in SQLite and reuses the Fabric graph export shape.

Feed the running service from this checkout:

railiance-fabric registry sync --repo-slug railiance-fabric .

Or register and sync the known local Railiance ecosystem repos from the onboarding manifest:

railiance-fabric registry sync-manifest registry/railiance-repos.yaml

To onboard every active State Hub repo with an available local checkout on this host:

railiance-fabric registry sync-manifest registry/local-repos.yaml

Ingest a CycloneDX SBOM as queryable library inventory:

railiance-fabric registry ingest-cyclonedx bom.json --repo-slug railiance-fabric

Useful inspection endpoints include:

GET /repositories/{repo_slug}/inventory
GET /repositories/{repo_slug}/snapshots
GET /repositories/{repo_slug}/snapshots/diff
GET /search?q=jsonschema
GET /ui/graph-explorer
GET /exports/graph-explorer/manifest
GET /exports/graph-explorer

See docs/registry-onboarding.md for the multi-repo manifest and operating loop.

The graph explorer export is the first executable slice of the interactive Fabric map. See docs/graph-explorer-transfer-review.md for the repo-scoping transfer review, docs/graph-explorer-contract.md for the shared manifest and payload contract, and docs/graph-explorer-operations.md for launch, refresh, verification, and extraction guidance.
