Systems

Complex, integrated infrastructure projects like programming languages, databases, and runtimes.

What Are Systems?

Systems are large-scope infrastructure — multiple components working together, long development timelines, and significant architectural design. These are the most ambitious projects in the Tuulbelt ecosystem.

Principles

Principle	Requirement
External Dependencies	Minimal (pragmatic)
Tuulbelt Dependencies	Allowed
Scope	Large, integrated
Interface	Varies (CLI, REPL, server, client)
Documentation	ARCHITECTURE.md + SPEC.md required

Governance

Systems require high governance:

• Architecture review before acceptance
• Clear module boundaries
• Incremental development milestones
• Performance benchmarks required

Available Systems

No systems implemented yet. Coming soon!
