THE AIRCHOR CONTROL PLANE

One structured system around the complete software-development lifecycle.

Airchor brings project sources, decisions, plans, work, evidence, and delivery status into one unified Control Plane. Whatever the starting point, every project follows a shared Project Model—creating clarity around what comes next, how work is coordinated, and where progress needs to be reviewed.

Project sources move through one Project Model into bounded work, evidence, review and continued development. Later stages remain on the roadmap.

ONE CONTROL PLANE

Begin with an idea or import existing software.

New products and existing projects need different intake questions, but they should not become separate systems. Airchor preserves two clear origins:

Both origins converge into one Project Model and one continued development lifecycle.

  • Create from an idea — begin with the problem, users, intended outcome, constraints and available evidence.
  • Import existing software — bring the context needed to understand a prototype, inherited application or active software project.

SOURCES BEFORE ASSUMPTIONS

Bring the material that explains the project into one intake surface.

The Source Inbox is being designed as the unified entry point for project material: documents, screenshots, images, URLs, supplied notes, decisions and, as approved integrations develop, repository and provider context.

Sources remain distinct from accepted project facts. Airchor should record where information came from, whether it is observed or claimed, and whether it has been accepted into the Project Model, retained as supporting evidence or rejected.

The current product accepts structured project context through its established workflows. A unified mixed-source inbox and repository-aware intake are not presented as available today.

DURABLE PROJECT TRUTH

Turn scattered context into one Project Model.

The Project Model is the durable representation of accepted project intent, decisions, requirements, evidence, plans, implementation state and release state.

It separates facts from assumptions, records confidence and risk, keeps missing information visible and links decisions back to their sources. When new evidence changes the understanding of the project, the model should update through a visible decision rather than silently rewriting history.

DISTINCT COMMAND INTENTS

Ask, Plan, Execute and Verify are different kinds of work.

Airchor is designed to infer the right intent where possible while keeping changes, approvals and external effects explicit.

  • Ask — Explore the project, explain context and answer questions without changing the project or external systems.
  • Plan — Propose an ordered path, surface assumptions and define what approval is required.
  • Execute — Perform eligible, bounded work through an approved task and declared permissions.
  • Verify — Test a result against acceptance criteria and supporting evidence independently from the actor that produced it.

FROM PROJECT STATE TO ACTION

Make the next step specific enough to review and execute.

A useful next action depends on the current Project Model, not on the last chat message. Airchor is being designed to recommend the next-best action based on project goals, evidence, dependencies, risk and unresolved decisions.

When implementation is appropriate, that action becomes a Build Specification: a bounded, versioned description of scope, exclusions, acceptance criteria, ownership targets, dependencies, permissions and evidence requirements.

A material change creates a new version. Approval applies to the version that was reviewed.

THE UNIT OF COORDINATED WORK

Every material action becomes a visible Work Item.

A Control Plane Work Item represents the work that must happen, who or what is responsible, what it depends on and what evidence is required before it can be treated as complete.

Each Work Item should expose its actor and automation level: autonomous, assisted, manually orchestrated or unsupported.

  • agent execution
  • an Airchor-controlled system operation
  • a human action
  • an approval
  • a review
  • an external-system operation
  • an evidence request
  • a waiting dependency

SPECIALISED EXECUTION WORK

Agent Tasks show what an AI agent is actually doing.

An Agent Task is a specialised Work Item for approved technical execution. Its visible state should include the plan, current working step, completed and pending work, blockers, controls and produced evidence.

The interface is designed to distinguish between a task being planned, approved, running, paused, blocked, awaiting review, awaiting verification, completed or failed. Real provider execution is introduced only through separately approved roadmap stages and permissions.

ORCHESTRATION BEYOND AUTOMATION

Work does not disappear when a human or external system is required.

Account ownership, MFA, legal acceptance, billing approval, provider-console configuration and stakeholder review may require a person or a system outside Airchor.

Airchor is being designed to create a clear Work Item for that step, identify the responsible actor, provide bounded non-coder instructions, request the minimum evidence, verify the result where possible and resume dependent work without losing context.

Human confirmation and independently verified completion remain separate states.

  2. HumanApprove, review or provide evidenceRecorded decision
  3. External systemPerform provider-controlled operationCorrelated result

Human confirmation, provider completion and independently verified completion remain separate states.

Non-automatable work stays visible, instructed, evidenced and resumable inside the same project workflow.
In active development and on the roadmap according to evidence type

CONTROL FIRST, DETAIL WHEN NEEDED

Stay at the project-control level or inspect the technical evidence.

The primary interface should explain what is happening, why it matters and what decision is required. Technical users can progressively open the deeper layer: files, diffs, commands, tests, Git state, provider events, preview details, deployment records and logs.

This separation helps non-coders remain in control without hiding the evidence developers and reviewers need.

COMPLETION IS NOT VERIFICATION

Check the result against the approved specification.

An agent can report that its work is complete. Verification asks a different question: does the result satisfy the acceptance criteria, and what evidence supports that conclusion?

Airchor’s roadmap separates execution from verification, records failures and retries, and links each verified claim to the relevant checks and evidence. Verification scope remains explicit; a passed check does not become a blanket security, legal or Production-readiness claim.

A REVIEWABLE DELIVERY BOUNDARY

Review a verified result before deciding whether to launch.

Tested Preview is the planned state in which the approved checks have passed, the preview and evidence are available and the result is waiting for user review.

It is distinct from task completion, checks passed, Build Complete and Production deployment. The user can inspect the result, review the Build Specification and evidence, request changes, approve the milestone or stop the release path.

DELIVERY IS A DECISION, NOT AN AUTOMATIC SIDE EFFECT

Launch deliberately, then continue from the updated project state.

Production launch should require an explicit, authorised release decision. Airchor is being designed to preserve the approved source, deployment evidence, post-launch verification and resulting project state.

After launch, the Project Model remains active. New evidence, issues, maintenance needs and product decisions become the basis for the next plan rather than starting again from an old conversation or handoff bundle.

Production follows an explicit authorised release decision. Launch evidence updates the same Project Model so continued development begins from current truth.
Governing product principle; integrations follow the roadmap

CUSTOMER-CONTROLLED FOUNDATIONS

Coordinate the project without surrendering ownership of it.

Airchor is being designed so that customer-controlled code, repositories, providers, domains, deployments and project assets remain the durable foundations of the software.

The Control Plane should coordinate multiple agents and systems without making project continuity dependent on one model or provider. This principle does not imply that every repository, deployment or provider integration is currently available.
