# The developer and capability release lifecycle

Every connected capability has a stable identity, a reviewable contract, run permissions, a compatibility policy and an exit path; an open ecosystem builds licensing, review, running and exit first, then grows in number.

## What this map shows

![The developer and capability release lifecycle diagram (A14)](/figures/atlas-v2-2/A14.png)

*MYRILUM architecture map v2.2 · A14 (public edition). Labels are in Chinese; every element is listed in English below. Select the diagram to open it at full size.*

This is MYRILUM's target architecture. It does not mean everything on the map is live; whether a capability can be used today is stated in “Current availability”.

Every connected capability has a stable identity, a reviewable contract, run permissions, a compatibility policy and an exit path.

An open ecosystem first builds licensing, review, running and exit mechanisms, and only then grows the number of connections.

## Providers and package definitions

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Provider identity | Accountable party, contact, support scope and trust record |
| Capability package | An app, agent, skill or connector, with its version |
| Capability manifest | Inputs and outputs, licensing, permissions, side effects and data destinations |
| Service and commercial contract | Metering, price, acceptance, support and the limits of responsibility |

> **Connected is not approved** — A working protocol connection, a successful model call and an official product release are different levels of acceptance.

<a id="part-2"></a>

## Sandbox and review

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Isolated testing | Synthetic or permitted data; no production master credentials |
| Contract compatibility testing | Semantics of inputs, outputs, state, errors and cancellation |
| Security and supply chain | Checks of dependencies, licences, network access, keys and outbound data |
| Release review | Reviewer, evidence, version digest and approved scope |

> **Installing is not global authorization** — Permissions are decided by the tenant and the resource; a provider's description of its capability is not the user's authorization.

<a id="part-3"></a>

## Release and running

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Listed version | Internal, preview, invited testing or generally available |
| Enabling for a tenant | The user side confirms permissions and data scope |
| Calls and monitoring | Gateway, limits, usage, failures and delivery quality |
| Support and handling | Vulnerabilities, compatibility issues, user complaints and rollback |

> **A candidate is not an industry certification** — The platform's internal review states the scope of its own judgement and never poses as a regulatory licence or third-party certification.

<a id="part-4"></a>

## Change and exit

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Version updates | Wider permissions, price changes or new behaviour are reviewed again |
| Compatibility and migration | Work in progress pins its version; semantics are never hot-swapped silently |
| Suspension and revocation | Stops new access; revokes credentials and release status |
| Retirement and export | Impact is announced in advance and work in progress is resolved |

> **Changes are traceable** — Packages, dependencies, model policies, tools and contracts are versioned separately; a revocation must reach the execution gateway.
