 This means a pipeline at `/project/ci/pipeline.yaml` can only mount subdirectories of `/project/ci/`. Use `/tmp` or `/output` inside the container for writes.
 
+### Sources
+
+Copy host directories into the container's **writable layer**. Unlike bind mounts, copied files live inside the container so the step can create new files and subdirectories alongside them (e.g. `node_modules` after `npm install`).
+
+```yaml
+sources:
+  - host: src/app
+    container: /app
+```
+
+- Same path rules as `mounts` (`host` relative, `container` absolute, no `..`)
+- Files are snapshotted at step start -- changes on the host during execution are not reflected
+- The container can write next to source files without affecting the host
+
+**When to use `sources` vs `mounts`**:
+- Use `sources` when the step needs to write alongside the source files (install dependencies, generate build artifacts next to sources)
+- Use `mounts` when read-only access is sufficient (config files, static data)
+
+Kits use `sources` internally: the `node` kit's `src` parameter copies into `/app` so that `npm install` can create `node_modules`.
