http

6 0 0 8.5 PHP

CitOmni HTTP is a lean PHP 8.2+ web delivery layer for CitOmni apps. Deterministic boot (vendor -> providers -> app, last-wins), deep read-only config, simple routing (exact + placeholders), explicit service maps, and an HTTP-specific error handler. Optional compiled caches and maintenance 503 keep overhead tiny and production fast. (by citomni)

It provides the minimal App container, deep read-only config wrapper, deterministic vendor->providers->app merging, explicit service maps ($app->id), optional compiled caches, and a fail-fast philosophy. No magic-HTTP/CLI own delivery and error handling. (by citomni)

Skeleton for CitOmni provider packages: Boot constants, service map, config overlay, routes, demo controller/service. PHP 8.2+, PSR-4, zero-surprises merge order.
