"""The client-side asset-package subsystem (``app.assets``).

The runtime acquire/track/prune manager for downloadable asset packages
(initiative: asset-packages CAS migration, Phase 4). It consumes the
Tier-1 resolve message + Tier-2 ``/casblob`` transport (already built and
dev-validated) and turns it into the ``app.assets.resolve([apverids])``
contract: given a set of asset-package-version ids, make every one of
them available to the C++ asset layer — pulling any missing CAS blobs
from the connected basn node and committing the resolved packages into
the runtime registry.

This module implements build-order step 2 of the consolidated design:
the subsystem skeleton, the ``resolve()`` loop, the shared atomic
CAS-writer, and the two-location diff. GC/prune (step 3), fallback
policy + ``allow_downloads`` semantics (step 4), and real dimension
selection (step 5) layer on top of this in later steps.
"""

# This is a cohesive single-class subsystem (writable-CAS management,
# resolve loop, fallback policy, and GC), so it legitimately runs long;
# we keep it as one primary module rather than fracturing the class.
