 ## Adding or Removing Sub Projects
 Microcks maintainers have the authority to add or remove sub-projects or repositories as needed. We follow a careful approach when making these changes: any new sub-project must serve a long-term purpose that is clearly distinct from existing ones, while sub-projects slated for removal must be shown to have either outlived their usefulness, become deprecated or unmaintainable.
 
+The canonical inventory of Microcks projects and repositories, including their lifecycle status and responsible ownership, is maintained in [SUBPROJECTS.md](https://github.com/microcks/.github/blob/main/SUBPROJECTS.md).
+
 When a sub-project is removed, it will be archived as-is within the Microcks-archive organization, along with its associated repositories, ensuring transparency and historical reference.

+# Microcks Project and Repository Inventory
+
+This document is the canonical inventory of public, first-party repositories owned by the [Microcks GitHub organization](https://github.com/microcks). It records repository purpose, lifecycle status and responsible ownership without treating external forks, private repositories or every repository as a governed subproject.
+
+Last reviewed: 2026-09-09
+
+## Scope and ownership
+
+The inventory includes public repositories owned by Microcks that are not forks. External forks and private repositories are excluded. Archived first-party repositories remain listed so that their status and history stay visible.
+
+The [central Maintainers and Code Owners list](https://github.com/microcks/.github/blob/main/MAINTAINERS.md) is authoritative for project governance roles. A repository `CODEOWNERS` file identifies the people automatically requested to review changes in that repository; it does not grant a project governance role by itself. When no repository-specific ownership record exists, the top-level Maintainers are responsible.
+
+Changes to repository lifecycle or ownership must update this inventory in the same decision or pull request. The Maintainers review the inventory at least annually.
+
+## External project health checks
+
+CNCF [CLOMonitor](https://clomonitor.io/projects/cncf/microcks) evaluates selected Microcks repositories using the repository-specific check sets declared in the [CNCF CLOMonitor configuration](https://github.com/cncf/clomonitor/blob/main/data/cncf.yaml).
+
+CLOMonitor provides an external project health and conformance signal. This inventory remains authoritative for Microcks repository scope, lifecycle and ownership. A repository not configured in CLOMonitor is not necessarily unsupported or excluded from the project.
+
+## Categories
+
+- **Core product:** The main Microcks application and its primary delivery components.
+- **Integration:** An extension or adapter connecting Microcks to another platform or developer workflow.
+- **SDK or library:** A reusable client, runtime or testing library.
+- **Tooling:** Automation, packaging or utilities supporting Microcks users and contributors.
+- **Demonstration or workshop:** Educational examples and hands-on learning material; these are not production deliverables.
+- **Website or content:** Documentation, websites, catalogs and reusable content.
+- **Community or governance:** Project-wide governance, community coordination and CNCF metadata.
+- **Infrastructure:** Images or other assets used to build and operate Microcks services.
+
+## Lifecycle states
+
+- **Experimental:** Exploratory work for which compatibility and long-term support are not yet promised.
+- **Active:** Supported work that may receive features, fixes, releases or content updates.
+- **Maintenance:** Supported work limited primarily to security and critical fixes.
+- **Deprecated:** Work with a documented replacement or migration path that is preparing for archival.
+- **Archived:** Read-only historical work that no longer receives fixes or releases.
+
+A lifecycle change requires the formal decision process defined in [GOVERNANCE.md](https://github.com/microcks/.github/blob/main/GOVERNANCE.md#decision-making-and-voting). Before a repository becomes Deprecated, its documentation should identify any replacement and migration path. Archived repositories remain in this inventory. Any future transfer to a dedicated archive organization must be approved as a repository removal and recorded here, with redirects or successor links where practical.

+## Deliberate exclusions
+
+The following repositories are not entries in this first-party inventory:
+
+- **External forks:** `agent-bond`, `backstage`, `community-module-registry`, `community-operators`, `community-operators-1`, `community-operators-prod`, `graphql.github.io`, `hub`, `java`, `microk8s-community-addons`, `protoc-jar`, `quarkus-extension-catalog` and `website`.
+- **Private repositories:** Private repositories are excluded from this public inventory and are not enumerated here.
+
+This inventory does not control distribution of organization-level files. Those files are replicated to the repositories where they are needed and relevant according to the deliberate per-file scope and exclusions in the [replication workflow](https://github.com/microcks/.github/blob/main/.github/workflows/global-replicator.yml).
