📖What it means
The single writer that all access to the initiatives store goes through. Nothing opens that database directly — a direct file open is how two writers corrupt each other — and its parameters are passed positionally.
⚖️What it is NOT
The neighbours this word is most often confused with, and the line between them.
Not: Registry
The relay guards the INITIATIVES store; the registry is a different store with its own access.
Not: Status router
The relay controls WRITES to the store; the router controls STATUS transitions within it.
