Control layer
The control layer is the part of DevAware OS that sits between what a developer asks for and what an AI agent does. It is not a chatbot or an editor; it is the governed path every request travels: intent, governance, clean prompt, controlled execution, validation, compact memory.
The point of a control layer is predictability. Each stage is a checkpoint where intent, prompt, action, or output can be inspected against policy before the next stage runs.
