+ * Platform SERVICE capability vocabulary — the canonical tokens accepted in a
+ * stack's `requires: [...]` declaration (framework#3265).
+ *
+ * ONE vocabulary across every runtime that resolves `requires`: the standalone
+ * `os serve` / `os start` path (`@objectstack/cli`) and cloud's multi-tenant
+ * `objectos-runtime` capability loader. Both loaders key their provider
+ * registries by these tokens, so a stack declaration means the same thing
+ * wherever it boots. (These are platform SERVICE capabilities — NOT the
+ * ADR-0066 authorization capabilities declared in `capabilities: [...]`.)
+ *
+ * Canonical spelling is lower-case kebab-case (`ai-studio`, `pinyin-search`,
+ * `hierarchy-security`). Legacy camelCase spellings that shipped in cloud
+ * configs are mapped through {@link DEPRECATED_PLATFORM_CAPABILITY_ALIASES}
+ * for one deprecation cycle — `defineStack` normalizes them with a warning at
+ * authoring time, and runtimes canonicalize raw artifact input the same way.
+ *
+ * Growing the platform: when a new `requires`-resolvable service ships, add
+ * its token HERE as well as to the runtime's provider registry — the CLI's
+ * vocabulary-drift test fails if the registries and this list fall out of
+ * sync. Unknown tokens are warn-only for now (`defineStack` and the serve
+ * resolver both warn) so third-party experimentation isn't bricked; once the
+ * vocabulary has proven complete the warn is intended to become a reject
+ * (Prime Directive #12: surface producer mistakes at authoring, loudly).
