Getting Started
Overview
What Catoids is, who it serves, and how this documentation is organised.
ReadCatoids
Documentation
Onboarding, architecture, guides, API reference, FAQ, and release notes for implementing Catoids.
Documentation is the primary path for onboarding, architecture learning, developer implementation, reference, and troubleshooting Catoids.
Start with Getting Started, then use Guides for domains and kernels, API for clients, FAQ for common questions, and Release Notes when upgrading.
Getting Started
Install, verify connectivity, and learn platform vocabulary before deeper guides.

Core concepts
Vocabulary for domains, kernels, workflows, knowledge, and AI-assisted execution in Catoids.
ReadGuides
Modelling a domain
Define domain boundaries, owned models, and vocabulary before wiring workflows or kernels.
ReadGuides
Orchestrating workflows
Define enterprise workflow steps, handoffs, and failure paths owned by a Catoids domain.
ReadPlatform concepts
Major architectural ideas summarised. Deep explanations live in documentation and resources.
Concepts
Business kernels
Modular units that own a slice of domain behaviour — models, adapters, and decision surfaces.
Kernel overviewConcepts
Workflow orchestration
Enterprise steps, handoffs, and failure paths owned by the domain rather than a generic BPM island.
Read guideConcepts
Decision automation
Published policies evaluate inputs and return outcomes operators can inspect.
API overviewConcepts
Knowledge-driven architecture
Versioned knowledge artefacts stay tied to domain publication for runtime use.
Core conceptsConcepts
AI-assisted execution
Prompts, tools, and retrieval scopes run inside allowlists owned by the domain or kernel.
Read guideBusiness kernels
Reusable kernels own domain behaviour. This is orientation — not an inventory of every module.
Kernels
Clear mandates
Each kernel states a problem boundary so applications do not become accidental suite modules.
Kernels guideKernels
Owned composition
Kernels depend on platform services for transport and identity; cross-kernel calls stay explicit.
Kernel overviewKernels
Domain before wiring
Publish vocabulary and ownership before attaching workflows or adapters.
Domain modellingAPI overview
The Catoids HTTP API is tenant-scoped under `/v1`. Clients authenticate with bearer tokens and work with domains, kernels, workflows, decisions, and knowledge.
Use the API collection for authentication, resource paths, errors, and versioning. This section is an introduction only.
