Capabilities are the vocabulary of action in SpineWorkspace. Every write to a source system, every message sent, every approval, and every workflow step is expressed as a capability, with a declared scope, authorization requirement, and receipt.

​
What a Capability Includes

  • Scope — which entities and systems the capability touches.
  • Inputs and outputs — declared shape of the action.
  • Authorization — who or what can invoke it and under which policy.
  • Receipt — the audit record produced after execution.
