MAS mode contract v0.1: specification bundle

Final as of 2026-10-19. Two independent email sides pass its flows unchanged: mas_modes.email_mode (Python) and impl/js/src/email.mjs (JavaScript). See CHANGELOG.md.

How email hands a case to another communication mode, and how email works as one element of a control flow it does not own. It is versioned separately from the MAS address specification (mas-v0.2-spec/, §7).

Contents

  • CONTRACT.md: normative text (roles, transport, status machine, message types, principle 10)
  • schema/mas-modes-v0.1.schema.json: every contract message
  • schema/mas-event-v0.1.schema.json: the normalized gateway event (mas-gateway → application, and case.intake / case.message payloads)
  • conformance/transitions.json: the status machine as data
  • conformance/messages.json: valid and invalid messages
  • conformance/flows.json: scripted flows for MAS-MODES-EMAIL-MASTER and MAS-MODES-EMAIL-SLAVE, with setups and test keys; runnable from the bundle alone
  • conformance/FLOWS.md: the flow format: steps, captures and expectations
  • conformance/scenarios.json: the callback stub's scenarios
  • conformance/auth.json: signing vectors and verification cases (§7)
  • conformance/statute.json: the statute the flows run under

The reference email side, the callback stub and the stub outside master are in mas_modes/. mas test runs this bundle against them.
