Hypersnap Lite is the write engine.
Arches consumes Hypersnap Lite through its Docker image and config contract.
Community Farcaster clients
Arches lets any community create its own Farcaster client.
An Arch is a custom social surface for one community, with its own domain, feed, interface, grammar, and provenance.

Layer model
Small surface, clear boundary.
Arches is the factory.
The installer generates the appliance files, domain wiring, API, web, feed, and admin scaffold.
Farcaster is the protocol.
Arches does not become a global Farcaster indexer. Each Arch feed is scoped to casts created through that Arch.
