Tinycast documentation

Start with AGENTS.md at the repo root — it is the short version, and it links here for anything that needs more than a line.

Each document below has one job and one trigger: the change that obliges you to edit it. A document that contradicts the code is a defect, so fix it in the commit that made it wrong.

Document Covers Edit it when
architecture.md How the app is wired: the layers, who owns what, the windows, the Observation model, the folder tree a layer boundary, an owner, or the tree changes
standards.md How code here is written: posture, naming, style, concurrency, performance budgets, comments a convention changes, or a check is added
testing.md How to verify a change: the definition of done, the harnesses, purity checks, budgets, the manual sweep a harness moves, or a budget changes
development.md The local loop: setup, build, dev channel, editor, format/lint, generated data the local toolchain changes
release.md How a build reaches a user: packaging, PR review, releases, the Homebrew tap the pipeline changes
signing.md The self-signed identity and the two CI secrets the signing setup changes
ui.md The design system: tokens, panel chrome, row grammar, glass, dialogs and HUDs a token or a presentation rule changes

Features

One document per feature, covering its invariants and internals. A few span more than one source folder — palette.md covers Tinycast/Palette/, backup.md covers two. Every one of them must open with an ## Invariants section; read it before changing anything in that area.
