Concepts

Talon is a durable control plane for agent systems. These chapters explain the models Talon owns: system state, execution, context and capability, coordination, and the boundaries around them.

The five models

• System Model explains runtime roles, resources, namespaces, and reconciliation.
• Execution Model explains agents, sessions, and durable execution.
• Context and Capability Model explains memory, files, skills, tools, and sandboxes.
• Coordination Model explains time-based, conversational, workflow, and delegated work.
• Boundary and Policy Model explains clients, connectors, access, and usage limits.
