10//! The boundary between the controller and its environment.
11//!
12//! [`ClusterControllerCtx`] is the single, strategy-agnostic boundary through which
13//! the controller pulls the signals a tick examines and applies the catalog
14//! mutations it derives. The signals in are primitive and carry no per-strategy
15//! state; the decisions out are primitive catalog mutations plus per-tick audit
16//! attribution. A create carries the [`CreateReason`] of the winning strategy
17//! behind it, which the environment turns into the audit event. The controller
18//! crate knows nothing about the Coordinator. The Coordinator implements this
19//! trait, which is what makes the controller testable against a fake
20//! implementation and extractable later without touching controller code.
21//!
22//! The interface is **pull-based**: a tick fetches only the signals it actually
23//! examines (no eager all-clusters-all-replicas snapshot is pushed in), and the
24//! controller drives what is fetched. Read methods are batched so a separate-task
25//! deployment can bound its round-trips to the Coordinator.
