rp-store

Purpose

Content-addressed block store — the bottom binary storage layer of the
whole ecosystem. Stores chunks by content hash; knows nothing about files,
orders, users, or business entities.

Mental model

Producer splits bytes into chunks → puts them in the store → gets
references back. Consumer reassembles bytes from references. The store
itself is a dumb key(blob_hash) → bytes map with deduplication: an
identical chunk uploaded twice is stored once.

Ecosystem value

Content-addressed byte foundation:

• Opaque byte blobs keyed by hash, stored once, referenced anywhere.
• Any producer persists bytes without its own binary storage.

Non-goals

• Not file metadata or collections.
• Not staged cache entries.

Responsibility boundary

Owns block put/get by content reference and chunk lifecycle; does not own
file-level naming/collections or business semantics of calling services.

Direct module dependencies

• None

Solution membership

• requests
