5 tasks, words-only per house rule, each with its verify step: (1) manifest
grows the [deps] section + one-line inline-table value (only under [deps]);
(2) resolver — git-binary fetch into .wo-deps/, wo.lock pinning, warm-path
offline guarantee, drift diagnostic, --update-deps, guard rails (transitive
refusal, non-writeonce dep, name collision WO-E107, all fetch failures
WO-E106); (3) multi-root discovery + module_of prefixing dep roots by dep
name + entry restricted to the app's own files; (4) scripts/deps-accept.sh
gate over file:// remotes (8 checks, network-free) + just recipe; (5) docs
closeout (catalog E106/E107, README deps subsection, board/story/structure).

Brainstorm outcome (forks locked with the developer):
- TLS: proxy-terminated (nginx/caddy gives browsers TLS+ALPN+h2; the
framework speaks HTTP/1.1 behind it) — zero TLS in the toolchain, no
doctrine fight; homegrown TLS refused outright.
- Dependencies: a real mini package manager — wo.toml [deps] with exact-rev
git deps, wo.lock, .wo-deps cache, `use <dep>` as a module root; fetch by
shelling to the git binary (no network code in woc); flat-only v1.
- HTTP/2: v1 is HTTP/1.1 keep-alive; h2c is the parked successor behind
iterations 8/9f/11 (multiplexing needs a scheduler to pay off); the
bytes/buffer type rides with it, not v1.
- Handler model: no function values by doctrine, so Handler/Middleware are
structural interfaces (ICALL dispatch, WO-E205-checked); middleware returns
?Resp and rides the shipped ?T narrowing.
- Incubation: framework at docs/examples/writeonce-framework/, consuming
storefront at docs/examples/web-app/ importing it THROUGH [deps] — the
sample exercises fetch -> lock -> build -> serve -> durable-restart.
- Iteration 10 relationship: service blocks later LOWER ONTO this library.
