Design notes

Several later features — the AI bundle (vector search, LLM chat gateway, MCP), teams, schema-as-code, and the plugin system — were planned in an internal value-add strategy document before being built, scoping each addition against “does this reuse an existing primitive or add a new one” rather than adding surface area for its own sake. The examples/docmind worked example is the concrete proof of that scoping — it is built entirely from primitives that already existed for other reasons.
