Why DH-ADOM?

As AI agents move from assistants to software engineering participants, development needs explicit ownership, bounded delegation, lifecycle governance, evidence, and resumable state.

Engineering Constitution → AI-SDLC → ADLC → Root Agent → Feature Agents → Specialist Agents → Evidence → Integration

The publication package
