Web, Desktop and API surfaces let people request work, review state and receive results.
The system stays understandable when each layer has one job.
Identity, permissions, policy, approvals and durable workflow state define what may happen.
Factories, skills, tools and providers perform only the work admitted by the control layer.
Checks and acceptance criteria decide whether produced work can advance.
Material state, provenance and bounded failure handling keep outcomes reviewable.
Authenticated intent
Turns the signed-in user's requested outcome, tenant/project context, acceptance criteria and authorized context into bounded work. The goal describes the outcome; it does not grant itself authority.
The public architecture view covers the complete ILAIOS operating model.
These areas explain how a request moves from an authenticated client surface to governed execution, verification, delivery and ongoing operations. Public wording describes implemented behavior conservatively and keeps target-only capabilities distinct from verified availability.
Requests start from a user-facing surface and stay tied to authenticated organizational and project context.
Web, Desktop, mobile, CLI, API and organization-facing surfaces provide controlled entry points without owning execution authority.
Authentication, principal identity, tenant membership, project scope, role and session state keep work bound to the correct organizational context.
Memory, RAG, project data and permitted external context are filtered by scope and authority before use.
The requested outcome becomes an explicit plan with acceptance criteria and bounded capability choices.
User intent, constraints, acceptance criteria, risk, cost and approval needs are resolved before work advances.
Work is decomposed into bounded dependencies, ordered tasks, retries and execution stages rather than an unrestricted autonomous loop.
Skills, tools, agents, providers and factory mappings are resolved through one governed capability identity system.
Capability does not equal permission; consequential work must pass policy and approval boundaries first.
Authorization, tenant isolation, data classification, tool permission, commercial rules and budget controls determine what may proceed.
Where risk or policy requires it, a human approval decision is bound to the exact action and scope before execution.
Admitted work receives bounded permission, limits, expiry, audit identity and revocation semantics for the authorized execution.
ILAIOS uses nine bounded factory families on the shared governed runtime. Knowledge/RAG is shared context, not a tenth factory.
Web; Video / Media; Software; App; Research / Data; Security; Creative / Document; Commerce / Growth; and Personal Operations share one control model while preserving domain-specific workflows.
Admitted work runs through one governed runtime and a reviewable lifecycle.
Workers, skills, tools, one routing decision and replaceable providers perform only admitted work inside the shared runtime.
Created, planned, approved, running, review, completed, failed and cancelled states keep execution lifecycle explicit and recoverable.
Uploads, classification, conversion, review, deployment or export remain scoped, versioned and permission-aware.
Development, testing, staging, preview and production paths remain distinct and release evidence is kept separate from build intent.
Background execution and external services remain governed resources rather than independent authorities.
Scheduled, event-driven and background work uses bounded retries, idempotency, error handling and provider scoring where implemented.
Provider availability, health, cost, privacy, capability mapping, rate limits and replacement remain controlled behind the routing boundary.
Credentials, authorization, webhook handling, retries and failure behavior are published only where the corresponding interface is implemented and verified.
Commercial access, user communication and system proof remain observable and reviewable.
Plans, checkout, entitlement and payment verification are separated from the public Website; final commercial access is activated only through the verified product/payment path.
Product notifications and communication channels are treated as governed delivery capabilities and are described publicly only to the extent they are implemented.
Execution evidence, provenance, audit trail, state transitions and acceptance records support independent review of what actually happened.
Shared infrastructure and operations support the product without becoming separate product authorities.
Application data, authorized knowledge, object storage, secrets, cache, backups and retention are governed platform responsibilities; implementation detail is exposed only where useful and verified.
Tenant support, account and billing support, incidents, abuse/risk operations, feature management and operational administration remain controlled platform functions.
User feedback, quality signals, failure analysis and evidence can inform bounded product improvement without self-modifying runtime authority.
Repositories, cloud services, app stores, social platforms, email, payments and other SaaS/API systems remain external integrations with explicit authorization boundaries.
A request moves through one governed execution spine.
The system can use different capabilities or providers without turning any of them into a second authority source.
One goal crosses explicit authority and acceptance boundaries.
The product keeps planning, policy, routing, execution, validation and evidence visible as one governed chain.
Select an element to inspect its role in the governed workflow.
Captures the signed-in user's requested outcome, tenant/project context and acceptance criteria without granting additional authority.
Four boundaries keep capability separate from permission.
The request stays tied to the authenticated organizational context.
Permission and required approval are resolved before consequential work proceeds.
Generated output is not treated as finished until required checks pass.
Retry and repair remain bounded; unresolved work stops or escalates.
