Rendezvous architecture decisions

These records define the v1 architecture baseline. A later change to a ratified decision requires a superseding ADR and corresponding contract/test updates.

• ADR 0001: v1 control-plane boundaries and domain
• ADR 0002: publisher trust, discovery, compatibility, and fallback
• ADR 0003: state, privacy, availability, and safety budgets
• ADR 0004: atomic ephemeral state and single-active availability
• ADR 0005: authenticated session lease and presence lifecycle
• ADR 0006: bounded compatible session browser
• ADR 0007: caller-owned .NET publisher and browser SDK
• ADR 0008: scoped join attempts and one-time connection tickets
• Threat model
• Security promise and test matrix
• Versioned HTTP and UDP contracts
• Game provisioning and signing-key lifecycle

These decisions intentionally leave gameplay authority, player identity, simulation, persistence, social features, skill matchmaking, and gameplay traffic with each game. Relay is future evidence-driven scope, not part of v1.
