## One-liner

Framework for goal-driven digital coordination as communication.

---

## Core Idea

coordination-engine captures coordination models, specs, and registry entries for how actors align on shared goals.

---

## In Scope

- Coordination specs, history, and registry indexes
- Headless coordination runtime, including cross-repository worker coordination
  (observation, leases, wake-up, checkpoints, safety gates, and receipts)
- State Hub workplans and agent instructions
- Capability registration when coordination patterns stabilize

---

## Out of Scope

- Replacing the systems coordinated through adapters (issue trackers, chat,
  workflow, notification, delivery, or evidence systems)
- Replacing issue trackers or chat systems
