Seam refactor

Concept a word Carolverse uses with a precise meaning

๐Ÿ“–What it means

The track's logic is generic and worth re-using, but its binding facts โ€” paths, repositories, store addresses, droid identities, model lanes โ€” are still hard-coded. Before any project can have it, those facts must be extracted into per-instance configuration with the estate's current values as the defaults. Handing this track to a project unchanged would point it at Carol's own stores.

โš–๏ธWhat it is NOT

The neighbours this word is most often confused with, and the line between them.

Not: estate-bound

Estate-bound is not about hard-coding: its WORK is about an estate, so it needs the project's own records to point at. A kernel cures estate-bound and does nothing for seam-refactor.

Not: config-only

Config-only is what a seam refactor turns this into.
