Storage hub (ctx.storage) for non-session data: a named backend registry plus mounted data-form facilities. The hub performs no IO itself — backends own media, and data forms own semantics. The storage family overview maps those packages; the domain KV storage Agent Note records the design rationale.
Shape
ctx.storage.backend— name → backend table. Multiple backends stay mounted side by side (json,sqlite); which backend serves a consumer is that consumer's configuration (the domain layer's route table), never a hub-global choice.register()returns the disposer; duplicate names and unknown lookups fail loud.ctx.storage.mount(form, facility)/ctx.storage.form(form)— data-form mounting.StorageFormsis merge-extensible; the domain layer mergesdomainand is reached asctx.storage.domain.- A backend owns one medium and exposes the data-shape facets it supports.
kvis the current facet;src/backend.tsowns its exact contract.
Model Experience
Backend and form registrations
What the model sees
Nothing. ctx.storage is a host-side registration table; the hub registers no tools, injects no prompts, and writes no session events.
Token effect
Zero direct tokens on every request.
KV Cache effect
Independent of live requests: the hub never touches a request prefix, so it cannot invalidate provider cache reuse.
Known Limitations and Deferred Work
kvis the only data shape — backends currently have one facet to implement.- Forms resolve lazily — reading
ctx.storage.domainbefore the domain plugin mounts throwsform-not-mounted; assemblies order plugins accordingly (misconfiguration fails loud rather than silently deferring).
LIMITATIONS
Known limitations
- **`kv` is the only data shape** — backends currently have one facet to implement. - **Forms resolve lazily** — reading `ctx.storage.domain` before the domain plugin mounts throws `form-not-mounted`; assemblies order plugins accordingly (misconfiguration fails loud rather than silently deferring).
