Deterministic
The same manifest always produces the same application. The runtime is tested once; every manifest benefits from that work.
IKARY ManifestDeclarative Cell Contracts
AI should generate manifests, not code.

Language-Neutral
YAML manifests and JSON Schema are the shared contracts. TypeScript validates and renders. Python consumes the same artifacts. No runtime coupling.
Multi-Runtime
One manifest, multiple runtimes. React today, mobile tomorrow, FastAPI next week. Code generation ties you to one framework; manifests remain framework-neutral.
AI-Native
Any model can generate correct YAML. Smaller, cheaper models produce valid manifests reliably. Token cost for application generation drops dramatically.
Reviewable
YAML manifests are readable by product owners, domain experts, and compliance teams. They can review, diff, and approve changes without reading code.
Validated Before Runtime
Manifests are structurally and semantically validated before any code runs. Invalid manifests are caught at authoring time, not in production.
