Config-first

Workspaces, automations, views — created as configuration, not code forks.

Synap is built so the product can be extended by configuration: workspace templates, property overlays, automations, packages. Agents propose config; you approve what becomes true.

Declarative product

A builder workspace, a CRM lens, an automation — same pod, different config, no custom fork required to start.

Three concrete capabilities

  1. Templates install structure

    A workspace package installs its profiles, views and automations together, as config you can read. Capabilities and Cards install as packages too.

  2. AI edits config under governance

    Agents can propose property defs, views, or workspace overlays; you keep the approval seat.

  3. Same model for people and machines

    There is one product shape: config and data on the pod, not a secret admin schema.

Config composes with Cards, capabilities, and playbooks. The Browser is where you inspect and adjust what was installed.

Config-first is not config-hidden — consequential changes stay reviewable.
