Repositories

• The index model

  Neutral index roles, composition rules, and lifecycle contracts shared by every ecosystem owner.

• Search API

  Search the derived entity index with route, source, availability, and access filters.

• Artifact source and availability

  Two typed dimensions peryx records for every artifact: where its bytes came from, and whether this instance can serve them without an upstream fetch. The transition table, the repair pass, and the storage guarantees behind them.

• Digest revocations

  Block immutable content by digest while retaining incident evidence.

• Repository quotas

  Reserve hosted repository capacity and repair pending reservations with durable accounting.

• Blob placement

  Record verified content locations and route reads from them.

• Retention plans

  Evaluate repository retention rules without changing metadata or content.

• Store blobs in object storage

  Move content-addressed blobs to an S3-compatible bucket so several nodes share one durable store.

• Remote read-through

  Fetch missing immutable content from a peer that holds a verified placement.

• Shadowed candidates

  Explain how a virtual repository chooses one candidate from overlapping members.

• Trash API

  List soft-deleted repository records and report whether retention permits restoration.

• Repository management API

  Create, inspect, list, update, disable, and enable repository records.
