To prevent ad-hoc integrations, you structure a domain-specific authoring tool using a shared, extensible backbone. This enforces a clean separation between framework and domain code by requiring domain packages to import only framework abstractions and register validators through standardized extension points.

The best way to enforce consistency across multiple domains is to apply standardized package layouts and architectural rules. By registering validators and exposing domain-specific servers through a shared backbone, teams ensure scalable collaboration without leaking domain details into the framework.

You add a new domain by utilizing the framework's extension points and package structure conventions. Domain teams compose framework utilities with their own server handlers and spine implementations, ensuring domain details remain isolated from the core framework abstractions.

Yes, expanding to multiple domains requires standardized package layouts across framework and domain packages. The architecture enforces that domain packages import only framework abstractions, preventing uncontrolled dependencies and maintaining a strict framework-domain separation.

You should avoid a shared backbone architecture if your project does not require expanding to multiple domains or lacks the need for strict framework-domain separation. It is designed for scalable collaboration and enforcing consistency, which may be unnecessary overhead for single-domain applications.
