📴 castuo-offline-field-operations — Resilient Field Resilience

Offline-first field operations, local assistance, and resilient communications for CASTÚO-SYSTEM™

---

1. Purpose & Scope

castuo-offline-field-operations focuses on the human and operational aspects of field work in disconnected environments. It provides the tools and protocols necessary to maintain operational integrity when cloud access is unavailable.

Its scope covers:

• Local Knowledge Base: Offline RAG and AI assistance (SABIONDA).
• Resilient Communications: Local mesh and peer-to-peer protocols (Meshtastic).
• Offline Navigation: GIS and spatial data handling without external maps (Organic Maps).
• Field Evidence Collection: Capturing and buffering operational data for later synchronization.

2. Ecosystem Position

castuo-offline-field-operations acts as the EDGE layer for human operations, complementing the automated IoT stack.

4. Engineering & Evidence

Following the Evidence-First principle, this repository provides evidence of operational resilience.

• Implemented: Local knowledge base integration and offline navigation prototypes.
• Planned: Full mesh networking protocols and federated field evidence sync.

Every operational event is logged with provenance data for later validation in CASTÚO-EVOLUTION.

Architecture governance boundary

This repository is governed through the CASTÚO-SYSTEM evidence chain. Its current role, visibility boundary, required provenance, security baseline and promotion rules are defined in docs/CASTUO_ARCHITECTURE_GOVERNANCE.md. A repository artifact or green workflow proves only the declared scope; it does not by itself prove certification, production operation, funding, customer contracts or commercial success.

Private-cloud and evidence boundary

This repository is part of the CASTÚO-SYSTEM private-cloud target architecture. Its repository scope does not by itself prove cloud provisioning, DNS, production operation, customer traction, financing, certification or independent validation. The service identity is a governed target boundary until a deployment record, access control, health check, observability, backup, restore, rollback, owner and dated Evidence Center record are published.

The public state model is DOCUMENTED → IMPLEMENTED_LOCAL → TESTED → VALIDATED → OPERATIONAL. OpenClaw and n8n, where referenced, are optional compatibility adapters and not the sovereign governance control plane.\n
