How to Build with Tropo Capsules

the rules; what each kind of thing in your Studio is

Every work-item in your Studio has a type — task, project, decision, agent, playbook, release. The type's definition lives in a capsule: a plain-language rule file declaring what a thing of that type must contain and how it can change state. You don't usually author capsules — the kernel ships with the standard set, and they govern how your agents behave. Once your work outgrows the standard types (a customer artifact, a research note, a brand asset), you can author your own capsule, and your Studio governs that type. Governance without code enforcement; language is the contract.
