 /**
- * Creates a synchronous content accessor backed by an async data source.
+ * Core configuration schema and resolution.
  *
  * @remarks
- * Solves the sync/async gap in `JeevesComponent.generateToolsContent()`:
- * the interface is synchronous, but most components fetch live data from
- * their HTTP service. This utility returns a sync `() => string` that
- * serves the last successfully fetched value while kicking off a background
- * refresh on each call.
- *
- * First call returns `placeholder`. Subsequent calls return the last
- * successfully fetched content. If a refresh fails, the previous good
- * value is retained.
- *
- * @example
- * ```typescript
- * const getContent = createAsyncContentCache({
- *   fetch: async () => {
- *     const res = await fetch('http://127.0.0.1:1936/status');
- *     return formatWatcherStatus(await res.json());
- *   },
- *   placeholder: '> Initializing watcher status...',
- * });
- *
- * const writer = createComponentWriter({
- *   // ...
- *   generateToolsContent: getContent,
- * });
- * ```
+ * Core config lives at `{configRoot}/jeeves-core/config.json`.
+ * Config resolution order:
+ * 1. Component's own config file
+ * 2. Core config file
+ * 3. Hardcoded library defaults
