Promotion Model

bijux-std does not invent standards in the abstract. It promotes shared behavior after the pattern is already visible, repeated, and stable across repositories.

Promotion Flow

graph LR
    local["local repository pattern"] --> repeated["repeated across repositories"]
    repeated --> stable["stable enough to describe clearly"]
    stable --> upstream["promoted into bijux-std"]
    upstream --> sync["synchronized back into consuming repositories"]
    sync --> checks["verified by shared checks"]

What Qualifies For Promotion

  • the same problem is being solved in similar ways across repositories
  • the pattern has enough maturity that a shared rule will reduce drift instead of causing friction
  • the standard can be described without hand-waving or repository-specific exceptions
  • the consuming repositories can verify the result with named checks

What Should Stay Local

  • repository-specific product behavior
  • one-off experiments that have not proved themselves yet
  • Rust or Python workflow details that still differ meaningfully by repository
  • temporary shortcuts that would become expensive if frozen into the standard layer

Why This Matters

This model keeps bijux-std honest. Shared standards are strongest when they come from repeated use, not from early theory.
