DUO.01 · Runtime overview

DUO

A digital entity operating system that keeps memory, planning, communication and action as distinct, inspectable responsibilities.

DUO is the whole runtime: the place where world context becomes a plan, a response, a tool chain or an accountable change.

System boundary

A named part of a larger runtime.

Intent, nested plans, blockers and acceptance criteria remain visible instead of being folded into a single prompt loop.

Communication is its own responsibility, with a social and conversational boundary rather than a side effect of reasoning.

Tools and code changes run through accountable chains that return evidence to the thinking authority.
