it tries to cover all the mod actions possible for each service type. this design has been around a while, but not well documented.

AT devs have just been blowing me away, the ecosystem is cookin!! i see you out there making it happen!!!
In fact, 80% of non-BSky collections are under active development with records written in the last week - 90% in the last month. Almost *no* abandoned projects where more than a small handful of uptake. The ecosystem is ~sticky~. Why?
