Runtime Guides Overview

[!NOTE] Non-Normative Document

This page is informative only. Runtime guidance describes integration patterns, not normative requirements.

What This Section Contains

This section documents runtime integration patterns for MPLP implementations. These are guidance documents that describe how protocol semantics may be realized.

Boundary

[!IMPORTANT] Guides vs Specification

  • Specification (normative): Defines protocol semantics
  • Guides (informative): Describes implementation patterns

Guides do not prescribe specific implementations.

Reading Path

  1. Start with: Runtime Glue Overview
  2. Core layers: PSGVSLAEL
  3. Reference: Skeleton — minimal implementation

Runtime guidance here is informative. Authoritative semantics are defined in the specification.
