# GovOPlaN Forms Runtime Codex Guide

## Documentation Contract

- Treat documentation as part of every behavior change. Update this module's manifest-driven `DocumentationTopic` contributions for affected user and administrator behavior.
- Keep feature content here; `govoplan-docs` projects it without importing Forms Runtime internals.
- Maintain a static user/admin baseline and run `/mnt/DATA/git/govoplan/tools/checks/check-manifest-shapes.py` after behavior or manifest changes.

## Scope

This repository owns the GovOPlaN Forms Runtime platform module seed.

Runtime form submissions for validation, drafts, attachments, signatures, status tracking, and handoff to domain modules.

## Boundaries

- Depend on kernel contracts from `govoplan-core` and access contracts from `govoplan-access`.
- Keep domain behavior in this module; expose integration through manifests, capabilities, API routes, events, typed DTOs, and documentation topics.
- Do not import internals from sibling feature modules. Use optional dependencies and capabilities for cross-module behavior.
- Keep the seed non-invasive until runtime routes, persistence, and WebUI flows are intentionally designed.

## Local Workflow

Use Gitea issues as the canonical backlog and state log. The shared workflow is installed under `.gitea/`, with labels in `docs/gitea-labels.json`.

Focused verification:

```bash
PYTHONPATH=src:/mnt/DATA/git/govoplan-core/src /mnt/DATA/git/govoplan-core/.venv/bin/python -m unittest discover -s tests
```
