docs: DEC-003 — Capability-based OS Architecture#9
Merged
Conversation
Foundational architectural decision inspired by Cosmo Kappa's analysis of OpenClaw's gateway-first design. Three principles: 1. Capability Declaration (graceful degradation) 2. Event Bus (loose coupling between modules) 3. Registration Pattern (modules as plugins) Updates: - DECISIONS.md: DEC-003 with full rationale and impact analysis - TECHNICAL_AXIOMS.md: Axiom 5 (Infrastructure before Intelligence) - CONTEXT.md: OS architecture overview - ROADMAP.md: Bus + Registry as high-priority items

The KnowledgeDistiller implementation is correct and stays. It needs an adapter wrapper to become a registered processor on the event bus.
See DEC-003 in DECISIONS.md for the full impact table.
