- Introduced guild charters for Scanner Deno, PHP, Ruby, Native, WebService, Java, Surface.Env, Surface.FS, Surface.Secrets, Surface.Validation, UI, Zastava Observer, Zastava Webhook, Zastava Core, and Plugin Platform. - Each charter outlines the mission, scope, required reading, and working agreements for the respective guilds. - Created task boards for Surface.Env, Surface.FS, Surface.Secrets, Surface.Validation, and Zastava components to track progress and dependencies. - Ensured all documents emphasize determinism, offline readiness, security, and integration with shared Surface libraries.

Timeline Forensics Guide
The Timeline Indexer service aggregates structured events (scanner runs, policy verdicts, runtime posture, evidence locker activity) so operators can audit changes over time. This guide summarises the event schema, query surfaces, and integration points.
1. Event Model
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
event_id |
ULID identifying the event. |
tenant |
Tenant scope. |
timestamp |
UTC ISO-8601 time the event occurred. |
category |
Logical grouping (scanner, policy, runtime, evidence). |
details |
JSON payload describing the event; contract defined per producer. |
trace_id |
Optional distributed trace correlation ID. |
Events are stored append-only with tenant-specific partitions. Producers include Scanner WebService, Policy Engine, Zastava Observer, Evidence Locker, and Notify.
2. APIs
GET /api/v1/timeline/events– paginated event stream with filters (tenant, category, time window, correlation IDs).GET /api/v1/timeline/events/{id}– fetch single event payload.GET /api/v1/timeline/export– NDJSON export for offline review.
3. Query Tips
- Use
category+trace_idto follow a scan-to-policy-to-notification flow. - Combine
tenantandtimestampfilters for SLA audits. - CLI command
stella timeline listmirrors the API for automation.
4. Integration
- Evidence Locker attaches evidence bundle digests; the console links from timeline to evidence viewer.
- Notifier creates acknowledgement events for incident workflows.
- Offline kits package timeline exports for compliance reviews.
