Core Concepts
MIOSA gives developers and agents a safe development loop without making production mutable. You work in a Sandbox, inspect the result through a Preview, and publish a frozen candidate Release. After MIOSA verifies that candidate, promotion moves the Deployment’s stable URL to the new Version.
If you read only one line, remember this:
Sandbox (mutable) → Preview → Publish → Release (immutable) → Verify → Promote → Deployment (stable URL).
The old Version remains available for rollback. Databases, storage, secrets, and domains remain attached to the Deployment instead of being copied into each release.
This page is the resource model: what the MIOSA resources are and how they relate. For the API protocol - authentication, token types, idempotency, rate limits, errors, and events - see API fundamentals.
