Slot registry pure core, slot terminal design: SlotMap declaration merging, the single `register` composition API on SlotCore, the four-share component-props type family, the store-seat type family, and the renderer installation contract. React types only at runtime — the package is React-free and cordis-free.

One `register({ name, children?, store?, inject?, ...kind }, Component)` call contributes a component into a declared slot and, in the same breath, declares child slots (declaration = render authorization = runtime spec, one table), a store seat, and the registrant's business face. The component is checked at the call site against `ComposedProps` — the intersection of four shares, each derived from its single source of truth:

| share | type | source |
|---|---|---|
| runtime | `PropsRuntime<K>` | SlotMap entry: `owner` (parent's renderSlot call site) + session standard kit + global seat |
| child render | `PropsRenderSlots<S>` | the register call's `children` key set (statically narrowed `renderSlot`) |
| store | `PropsStore<H>` | the declared handle: `useStore` selector hook + draft-stripped `actions` |
| business | `I` | inferred from the `inject` factory's return |

Chain-kind slots invert keyed routing — entries self-nominate instead of the dispatch site picking an `entryKey`: each registration carries a pure `ChainSelect` selector (plus optional ascending `priority`, ties in registration order), the first non-null return elects its entry and becomes the component's `matched` prop, and all-null falls to the owner's `renderSlotChain` fallback (`ChainRenderOpts`).

The standard-kit interfaces (`SessionStandardProps`, `GlobalStandardProps`) are declared empty here and merged by the runtime package (same declare-merge pattern as SlotMap keys). The renderer binds the runtime's session and workspace observable sources into selector hooks. Inject factory parameters derive from the declaration (`InjectParams`): session slots get `sessionId`, a declared store appends baked `actions`, nothing else — data access lives in the apply closure's ctx.

The store family (`defineStore` spec in / `StoreHandle<T, A>` out) types the store seat: `init` infers the state schema, `actions` is the complete draft-transform write set, `BakedActions` strips the draft parameter into the callbacks components and inject factories receive. The `defineStore` value implementation lives in the runtime package (the engine's home) and satisfies the `DefineStore` contract exported here. Engine products and the renderer host contract carry bare snapshot sources (`getSnapshot`/`subscribe`), never React hooks — hook binding belongs to the render machinery; only the props-contract hook type (`SnapshotSelectorHook`) lives here.

`SlotCore` seeds the a-priori `'root'` slot at construction and enforces load-time validation (undeclared-slot registration, duplicate child declaration, one shared handle under two scopes, a chain registration without `select` — all throw at register). An entry's disposer collapses its declared child slots recursively: ledger rows, contributions, and store mounts die on one lifecycle axis. Each key also carries a declaration epoch that advances only on declaration and collapse; the runtime uses it for [`ctx.slots.inject`](../runtime/README.md#slot-declaration-injection), independently from ordinary entry versions. `renderer.ts` carries the installation contract (`SlotRenderer`, `SlotRendererHost`) plus `StaleAuthorizationError`/`SlotOwnershipError`; the implementation lives in web-react, the installation in the shell boot.

## Model Experience

None, as the slot registry is browser-side UI plumbing; nothing here reaches a model request.

#### KV Cache effect

None; this package neither assembles nor sends a provider request.

## Known Limitations and Deferred Work

- **`isLive` scans all records linearly** — fine at UI-plugin registration counts (tens); revisit with an entry→record backref if ledgers ever grow hot.
- **The `__renders` phantom anchor is visible on `PropsRenderSlots`** — the same accepted noise as the type-chain design's `__accepts`: generic method signatures compare loosely across key unions, so the contravariant marker is what enforces "component key set ⊆ children declaration".
