Platform API

Backend architecture documentation for the FastAPI control plane, worker runtime, and storage model in services/platform-api.

This section documents services/platform-api, the backend that coordinates discovery, extraction, validation, scheduling, product read models, and compliance-adjacent runtime checks.

Coverage

  • FastAPI entrypoints and boot lifecycle
  • local MCP and desktop adapters that supervise the runtime
  • ControlPlaneService orchestration responsibilities
  • Celery queues, execution-plane dispatch, and worker leases
  • browser/recon, strategy, and skill-runner boundaries
  • intel/core database split and read-model refresh flow
  • backend verification suites and local smoke paths
