Used by

Not currently recorded — used_by came back empty in the analyzer's evidence. This is early-stage, single-operator tooling that hasn't yet been consumed by other Aptlantis projects.

Where it sits in Aptlantis governance

Primary standard is DRS (Desktop Application Release Standard), with PPS governing intent/scope and WGS governing workspace registration. lifecycle = active-core despite being a Prototype at 70% — this is considered load-bearing infrastructure for future storage work even while incomplete.
