service-foundation

Foundations for standalone runnable services and host-side companion processes.

Current Status

2026.10.17.2026 is released together with app-foundation, connection-hub and project-board at one version (W322). It includes a generic host-relay lifecycle under service_foundation.host_relay:

  • HostRelayAdapter defines one asynchronous poll_once() domain boundary;
  • HostRelayRuntime owns repeated execution, health, stop, and bounded retry;
  • HostRelayPolicy defines poll and retry timing;
  • an adapter may return next_poll_seconds and implement wait_for_wakeup(timeout_seconds, stop_event) so a live transport can start the next reconciliation cycle immediately;
  • entry-point discovery uses service_foundation.host_relay.adapters for separately packaged adapters.
python -m pip install service-foundation

An adapter owns domain translation and returns bounded cycle metadata. The runtime emits lifecycle metadata and result-key names; it does not copy domain payloads into observer events.

Boundary

A standalone service needs a host layer around its application logic:

  • composition and launcher contracts;
  • browser-session and service-workload authentication surfaces;
  • service-owned session issuance and verification;
  • configuration, health, and readiness contracts;
  • migration invocation, while the application owns its migrations;
  • lifecycle for a local or remote companion process.

The host-relay runtime does not know MCP, Data Bus, credentials, agents, mail, journals, or any product vocabulary. A product composition root supplies an adapter, opens whatever governed transport that adapter needs, and translates transport events into wakeups. Poll timing remains reconciliation policy even when ordinary work is push-driven.

service-foundation does not import app-foundation, and app-foundation does not import service-foundation. Products may depend on either or both.

The in-progress generic durable decision coordinator and PostgreSQL store live under service_foundation.coordination. Their v2 canonical authority bytes and frozen test vector are documented in docs/service-foundation/durable-decision.md. The package has not been released with this coordination feature yet.
