Data Contract

This project separates user-specific case data from shared system logic.

User Layer

These files contain user data, case data, generated artifacts, and operating history.

• config/profile.yml
• config/lenders.yml
• config/strategy.yml
• data/cases/*
• data/tracker/*
• data/decision-log/*
• data/document-vault/*
• reports/*
• output/*

System Layer

These files contain shared logic, rules, templates, and adapters.

• engine/*
• adapters/*
• packs/*
• templates/*
• scripts/*
• docs/*

Rule

User-layer files must remain safe to customize and should not be overwritten by upstream system changes.
