 Toolkit source for WorkBundle skills, rules, references, and deterministic helper code.
 
+## Ecosystem
+
+WorkBundle owns orchestration contracts, workspace authority, durable knowledge,
+and acceptance flow. [Execution Flow](https://github.com/Ldsystem/execution-flow)
+is a separate, optional TypeScript repository that supplies provider-neutral
+executor selection and ACP delegation without taking over WorkBundle
+orchestration.
+
+The recommended local layout for developing both repositories is a
+multi-repository workspace:
+
+```text
+work-bundle-workspace/
+├── .work-bundle/       # portable workspace authority and runtime artifacts
+├── work-bundle-main/   # this toolkit repository
+└── execution-flow/     # the independent Execution Flow repository
+```
+
 WorkBundle distinguishes four roots:
 
 - `work_bundle_root` — this installed toolkit source.
