System Model

Talon keeps desired configuration, observed runtime state, and execution history in one durable system.

Relationship map

Clients declare resources through the gateway. Controllers and workers reconcile or execute them; status records what Talon observed. Namespaces scope the resources, while Deployments render reusable Templates into selected namespaces.
