| Deployment patterns describes the six canonical configurations in which the PointSav substrate is deployed across different institutional contexts. Each configuration rests on the same five primitives — People, Communications, Drafts, Records, Money — and the same [[console-os|Command Ledger]] surface; what changes per configuration is the [[archetypes-and-chart-of-accounts|Chart of Accounts]] and the compliance surface. The substrate does not fork across segments; it adapts. By the end of this article, a reader will understand the Companion positioning, the six canonical patterns, and the micro-frontend isolation model that makes independent-versioning practical across all six. | Deployment patterns describes the six canonical configurations in which the PointSav substrate is deployed across different institutional contexts.

| Every context in which institutional users operate maps to the same five primitive categories of records. A regulated professional managing patient files, a litigator managing case discovery, and a household managing tax receipts each maintain documents that fall into exactly these categories: | Every context in which institutional users operate maps to the same five primitive categories of records.

| The [[console-os|Command Ledger]] exposes each primitive as a dedicated F-key surface. The operator presses a key; the chassis loads the relevant plugin; the plugin displays the records for that primitive within the current [[totebox-os|Totebox]] context. No context switch between segments requires a different architecture — the five primitives are universal. | The [[console-os|Command Ledger]] exposes each primitive as a dedicated F-key surface.

| The isolation model is derived from the micro-frontend architectural pattern[^1] applied with sovereign discipline: the entire surface ships as a single Rust binary, no plugin fetches assets from an external host, and no plugin can observe another plugin's state. The isolation is mathematical — a property of the directory structure — not a security policy that must be enforced at runtime. | The isolation model is derived from the micro-frontend architectural pattern[^1] applied with sovereign discipline: the entire surface ships as a single Rust binary, no plugin fetches assets from an external host, and no plugin can observe another plugin's state.

| Deployment patterns are launched with a visible-operational-first cadence: the URL resolves and a recognisable surface answers before any polish or hardening work begins. A pattern that has not yet been provisioned as a working deployment is described in planning terms, not as live infrastructure. | Deployment patterns are launched with a visible-operational-first cadence: the URL resolves and a recognisable surface answers before any polish or hardening work begins.

| This cadence prevents two common failure modes: designs that are specced but never built, and builds that are technically complete but never publicly visible. The definition of "operational" is strict — the URL must resolve to a surface a human can use — and that bar is cleared before any configuration is described as deployed. | This cadence prevents two common failure modes: designs that are specced but never built, and builds that are technically complete but never publicly visible.
