Registry

The Loop Engine registry at registry.betterdata.co is the discovery layer for governed loop definitions. Think of it as npm for AI approval workflows: same versioning model, same CLI ergonomics, plus semantic search instead of keyword-only search.

Trust model

The registry uses three trust tiers:

1. Core — Loop Engine maintained definitions.
2. Verified Partner — signed publisher identity with reviewed definitions.
3. Community — open publish surface, use-at-own-risk.

Security properties

Every published loop definition declares its actor types, guard registrations, transition surface, and external service calls in a machine-readable manifest. This is designed to prevent hidden behavior and make review/audit straightforward.
