- Add SERVICE_STATUS.md: Complete analysis of all blackroad.systems services
- Add check_all_services.sh: Automated service health checker script
- Add minimal-service template: Production-ready FastAPI service template
Service Status Findings:
- All 9 services return 403 Forbidden (Cloudflare blocking)
- Services are deployed and DNS is working correctly
- Issue is Cloudflare WAF/security rules, not service implementation
Template Features:
- Complete syscall API compliance (/v1/sys/*)
- Railway deployment ready
- CORS configuration
- Health and version endpoints
- HTML "Hello World" landing page
- OpenAPI documentation
Existing Service Implementations:
✓ Core API (services/core-api)
✓ Public API (services/public-api)
✓ Operator (operator_engine)
✓ Prism Console (prism-console)
✓ App/Shell (backend)
Next Steps:
1. Configure Cloudflare WAF to allow health check endpoints
2. Use minimal-service template for missing services
3. Implement full syscall API in existing services
4. Test inter-service RPC communication

This commit introduces a comprehensive infrastructure overhaul that transforms
BlackRoad OS into a true distributed operating system with unified kernel,
DNS-aware service discovery, and standardized syscall APIs.
## New Infrastructure Components
### 1. Kernel Module (kernel/typescript/)
- Complete TypeScript kernel implementation for all services
- Service registry with production and dev DNS mappings
- RPC client for inter-service communication
- Event bus, job queue, state management
- Structured logging with log levels
- Full type safety with TypeScript
Modules:
- types.ts: Complete type definitions
- serviceRegistry.ts: DNS-aware service discovery
- identity.ts: Service identity and metadata
- config.ts: Environment-aware configuration
- logger.ts: Structured logging
- rpc.ts: Inter-service RPC client
- events.ts: Event bus (pub/sub)
- jobs.ts: Background job queue
- state.ts: Key-value state management
- index.ts: Main exports
### 2. DNS Infrastructure Documentation (infra/DNS.md)
- Complete Cloudflare DNS mapping
- Railway production and dev endpoints
- Email configuration (MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC)
- SSL/TLS, security, and monitoring settings
- Service-to-domain mapping
- Health check configuration
Production Services:
- operator.blackroad.systems
- core.blackroad.systems
- api.blackroad.systems
- console.blackroad.systems
- docs.blackroad.systems
- web.blackroad.systems
- os.blackroad.systems
- app.blackroad.systems
### 3. Service Registry & Architecture (INFRASTRUCTURE.md)
- Canonical service registry with all endpoints
- Monorepo-to-satellite deployment model
- Service-as-process architecture
- DNS-as-filesystem model
- Inter-service communication patterns
- Service lifecycle management
- Complete environment variable documentation
### 4. Syscall API Specification (SYSCALL_API.md)
- Standard kernel API for all services
- Required syscalls: health, version, identity, RPC
- Optional syscalls: logging, metrics, events, jobs, state
- Complete API documentation with examples
- Express.js implementation guide
Core Endpoints:
- GET /health
- GET /version
- GET /v1/sys/identity
- GET /v1/sys/health
- POST /v1/sys/rpc
- POST /v1/sys/event
- POST /v1/sys/job
- GET/PUT /v1/sys/state
### 5. Railway Deployment Guide (docs/RAILWAY_DEPLOYMENT.md)
- Step-by-step deployment instructions
- Environment variable configuration
- Monitoring and health checks
- Troubleshooting guide
- Best practices for Railway deployment
### 6. Atlas Kernel Scaffold Prompt (prompts/atlas/ATLAS_KERNEL_SCAFFOLD.md)
- Complete prompt for generating new services
- Auto-generates full kernel implementation
- Includes all DNS and Railway mappings
- Production-ready output with zero TODOs
### 7. GitHub Workflow Templates (templates/github-workflows/)
- deploy.yml: Railway auto-deployment
- test.yml: Test suite with coverage
- validate-kernel.yml: Kernel validation
- README.md: Template documentation
## Updated Files
### CLAUDE.md
- Added "Kernel Architecture & DNS Infrastructure" section
- Updated Table of Contents
- Added service architecture diagram
- Documented all new infrastructure files
- Updated repository structure with new directories
- Added kernel and infrastructure to critical path files
## Architecture Impact
This update establishes BlackRoad OS as a distributed operating system where:
- Each Railway service = OS process
- Each Cloudflare domain = mount point
- All services communicate via syscalls
- Unified kernel ensures interoperability
- DNS-aware service discovery
- Production and development environments
## Service Discovery
Services can now discover and call each other:
```typescript
import { rpc } from './kernel';
const user = await rpc.call('core', 'getUserById', { id: 123 });
```
## DNS Mappings
Production:
- operator.blackroad.systems → blackroad-os-operator-production-3983.up.railway.app
- core.blackroad.systems → 9gw4d0h2.up.railway.app
- api.blackroad.systems → ac7bx15h.up.railway.app
Internal (Railway):
- blackroad-os-operator.railway.internal:8001
- blackroad-os-core.railway.internal:8000
- blackroad-os-api.railway.internal:8000
## Next Steps
1. Sync kernel to satellite repos
2. Implement syscall endpoints in all services
3. Update services to use RPC for inter-service calls
4. Configure Cloudflare health checks
5. Deploy updated services to Railway
