Concepts
The five pillars of the autonomous AI-SDLC framework. Each page is an operator-facing overview that links to the canonical RFC and the operational runbook in the source repo.
| Concept | Pillar | RFC |
|---|---|---|
| Autonomous orchestrator | Dispatch | RFC-0015 |
| Cross-harness review | Review | RFC-0010 §13 |
| Definition-of-Ready gate | Decision engine | RFC-0011 |
| Operator TUI | Operator surface | RFC-0023 |
| Two-tier pipeline architecture | Pipeline runtime | RFC-0012 |
How these fit together
Issue → DoR gate decides if the issue is ready to dispatch. Ready issues join the dispatch frontier. The autonomous orchestrator picks the next ready issue, allocates an isolated worktree, and runs the two-tier pipeline (Tier 1 = slash-command body on the operator's subscription; Tier 2 = library-callable executePipeline() driven by an API key). The pipeline's review stage fans out to three cross-harness reviewers (code / test / security) running on harnesses independent of the implementer. The operator TUI is how a human watches that flow + steers decisions when the DoR gate surfaces a clarification.
The 5 pages are short by design — they orient you, then point at the canonical sources.
