File and module discovery infrastructure for systemprompt.io AI governance — manifests, schemas, and extension loading. Separates I/O from shared models in the MCP governance pipeline. Provides pure I/O operations for loading configuration files, profiles, secrets, extensions, and module definitions without any domain logic.

**Layer**: Infra — infrastructure primitives (database, security, events, etc.) consumed by domain crates. Part of the [systemprompt-core](https://github.com/systempromptio/systemprompt-core) workspace.

## Overview

This crate provides pure I/O operations for loading configuration files, profiles, secrets, extensions, and module definitions without any domain logic.

## Architecture

The loader crate sits in the infrastructure layer and depends only on `systemprompt-models` (shared layer). It separates file I/O concerns from business logic, enabling:

- Testable file operations with clear boundaries
- Reusable loaders across different entry points (API, CLI)
- Consistent configuration parsing and validation

src/
├── lib.rs                       # Public API exports
├── config_loader.rs             # Services configuration loader with include merging
├── config_writer.rs             # Agent configuration file writer
├── extension_loader.rs          # Extension manifest discovery and loading
├── extension_registry.rs        # Runtime extension binary registry
├── module_loader.rs             # Module definition aggregator

└── modules/

```

### Core Loaders

| Module | Purpose |
|--------|---------|
| `ProfileLoader` | Loads and validates profile YAML files from the profiles directory |
| `ConfigLoader` | Loads services configuration, merges includes, and validates strict schema |
| `ModuleLoader` | Aggregates all module definitions for database schema management |

### Extension Support

| Module | Purpose |
|--------|---------|
| `ExtensionLoader` | Discovers extensions by scanning for `manifest.yaml` files |
| `ExtensionRegistry` | Runtime registry mapping binary names to extension metadata |
| `ConfigWriter` | Creates, updates, and deletes agent configuration files |

### Module Definitions

The `modules/` directory contains definitions for each systemprompt.io module. Each definition specifies:

- Module metadata (name, version, description)
- Database schemas with required columns
- Seed data for initial setup
- API configuration
- Module dependencies and load order (weight)

## Usage

```toml
[dependencies]
systemprompt-loader = "0.2.1"
```

```rust
use systemprompt_loader::{
    ConfigLoader, ProfileLoader,
    ExtensionLoader, ExtensionRegistry, ModuleLoader,
};

let config = ConfigLoader::load()?;

let loader = ConfigLoader::from_env()?;

let profile = ProfileLoader::load_and_validate(services_path, "development")?;

let modules = ModuleLoader::all();

let extensions = ExtensionLoader::discover(project_root);
```

## Dependencies

- `anyhow` - Error handling
- `thiserror` - Error type definitions
- `serde` / `serde_yaml` / `serde_json` - Serialization
- `tokio` - Async runtime
- `tracing` - Logging
- `systemprompt-models` - Shared model types
