feat(sources)!: split source contracts into PollSource/StreamSource and add mode-aware source config

- Introduce explicit source interfaces: sources.PollSource and sources.StreamSource, with shared sources.Input (Name() only).
- Remove mandatory Kind() from the base source contract to support sources that emit multiple kinds.
- Add config.SourceMode (poll, stream, or omitted/auto) and SourceConfig.Kinds (plural expected kinds), while keeping legacy SourceConfig.Kind for compatibility.
- Enforce mode semantics in config validation (poll requires every, stream forbids every) and detect mode/driver mismatches in sources.Registry.
- Update docs and tests for the new source model and config behavior.

 # feedkit
 
-**feedkit** provides the domain-agnostic core plumbing for *feed-processing daemons*.
+`feedkit` provides domain-agnostic plumbing for feed-processing daemons.
 
-A feed daemon is a long-running process that:
-- polls one or more upstream providers (HTTP APIs, RSS feeds, etc.)
-- normalizes upstream data into a consistent internal representation
-- applies lightweight policy (dedupe, rate-limit, filtering)
-- emits events to one or more sinks (stdout, files, databases, brokers)
-
-feedkit is designed to be reused by many concrete daemons (e.g. `weatherfeeder`,
-`newsfeeder`, `rssfeeder`) without embedding *any* domain-specific logic.
-
----
+A daemon built on feedkit typically:
+- ingests upstream input (polling APIs or consuming streams)
+- emits domain-agnostic `event.Event` values
+- applies optional processing (normalization, dedupe, policy)
+- routes events to sinks (stdout, NATS, files, databases, etc.)
 
 ## Philosophy
 
-feedkit is **not a framework**.
-
-It does **not**:
-- define domain schemas
-- enforce allowed event kinds
-- hide control flow behind inversion-of-control magic
-- own your application lifecycle
-
-Instead, it provides **small, composable primitives** that concrete daemons wire
-together explicitly. The goal is clarity, predictability, and long-term
-maintainability.
-
----
+feedkit is not a framework. It provides small composable packages and leaves
+lifecycle, domain schemas, and domain-specific validation in your daemon.
 
 ## Conceptual pipeline
 
-Collect → Normalize → Filter / Policy → Route → Persist / Emit
-
-In feedkit terms:
+Collect -> Normalize (optional) -> Policy -> Route -> Emit
 
 | Stage | Package(s) |
-|------------|--------------------------------------|
+|---|---|
 | Collect | `sources`, `scheduler` |
-| Normalize  | *(today: domain code; planned: pipeline processor)* |
+| Normalize | `normalize` (optional in `pipeline`) |
 | Policy | `pipeline` |
 | Route | `dispatch` |
 | Emit | `sinks` |
 | Configure | `config` |
 
----
+## Core packages
 
-## Public API overview
+### `config`
 
-### `config` — Configuration loading & validation  
-**Status:** 🟢 Stable
+Loads YAML config with strict decoding and domain-agnostic validation.
 
-- Loads YAML configuration
-- Strict decoding (`KnownFields(true)`)
-- Domain-agnostic validation only (shape, required fields, references)
-- Flexible `Params map[string]any` with typed helpers
+`SourceConfig` supports both source modes:
+- `mode: poll` requires `every`
+- `mode: stream` forbids `every`
+- omitted `mode` means auto (inferred from the registered driver type)
 
-Key types:
-- `config.Config`
-- `config.SourceConfig`
-- `config.SinkConfig`
-- `config.Load(path)`
+It also supports optional expected source kinds:
+- `kinds: ["observation", "alert"]` (preferred)
+- `kind: "observation"` (legacy fallback)
 
----
+### `event`
 
-### `event` — Domain-agnostic event envelope  
-**Status:** 🟢 Stable
+Defines the domain-agnostic event envelope (`event.Event`) used across the system.
 
-Defines the canonical event structure that moves through feedkit.
+### `sources`
 
-Includes:
-- Stable ID
-- Kind (stringly-typed, domain-defined)
-- Source name
-- Timestamps (`EmittedAt`, optional `EffectiveAt`)
-- Optional `Schema` for payload versioning
-- Opaque `Payload`
-
-Key types:
-- `event.Event`
-- `event.Kind`
-- `event.ParseKind`
-- `event.Event.Validate`
-
-feedkit infrastructure never inspects `Payload`.
-
----
-
-### `sources` — Polling abstraction  
-**Status:** 🟢 Stable (interface); 🔵 evolving patterns
-
-Defines the contract implemented by domain-specific polling jobs.
+Defines source interfaces and driver registry:
 
 ```go
-type Source interface {
+type Input interface {
     Name() string
-    Kind() event.Kind
+}
+
+type PollSource interface {
+    Input
     Poll(ctx context.Context) ([]event.Event, error)
 }
-```
-Includes a registry (sources.Registry) so daemons can register drivers
-(e.g. openweather_observation, rss_feed) without switch statements.
 
-Note: Today, most sources both fetch and normalize. A dedicated
-normalization hook is planned (see below).
-
-### `scheduler` — Time-based polling
-
-**Status:** 🟢 Stable
-
-Runs one goroutine per source on a configured interval with jitter.
-
-Features:
-- Per-source interval
-- Deterministic jitter (avoids thundering herd)
-- Immediate poll at startup
-- Context-aware shutdown
-
-Key types:
-- `scheduler.Scheduler`
-- `scheduler.Job`
-
-### `pipeline` — Event processing chain
-**Status:** 🟡 Partial (API stable, processors evolving)
-
-Allows events to be transformed, dropped, or rejected between collection
-and dispatch.
-
-```go
-type Processor interface {
-    Process(ctx context.Context, in event.Event) (*event.Event, error)
+type StreamSource interface {
+    Input
+    Run(ctx context.Context, out chan<- event.Event) error
 }
 ```
 
-Current state:
-- `pipeline.Pipeline` is fully implemented
+Notes:
+- a poll can emit `0..N` events
+- stream sources emit events continuously
+- a single source may emit multiple event kinds
+- driver implementations live in downstream daemons and are registered via `sources.Registry`
 
-Placeholder files exist for:
-- `dedupe` (planned)
-- `ratelimit` (planned)
+### `scheduler`
 
-This is the intended home for:
-- normalization
-- deduplication
-- rate limiting
-- lightweight policy enforcement
+Runs one goroutine per source job:
+- poll sources: cadence driven (`every` + jitter)
+- stream sources: continuous run loop
 
-### `dispatch` — Routing & fan-out
-**Status:** 🟢 Stable
+### `pipeline`
 
-Routes events to sinks based on kind and isolates slow sinks.
+Optional processing chain between collection and dispatch.
+Processors can transform, drop, or reject events.
 
-Features:
-- Compiled routing rules
-- Per-sink buffered queues
-- Bounded enqueue timeouts
-- Per-consume timeouts
-- Sink panic isolation
-- Context-aware shutdown
+### `normalize`
 
-Key types:
-- `dispatch.Dispatcher`
-- `dispatch.Route`
-- `dispatch.Fanout`
+Optional normalization package (already implemented). Typical use: sources emit raw
+payload events, then normalize to canonical schemas in a pipeline stage.
 
-### `sinks` — Output adapters
-***Status:*** 🟡 Mixed
+### `dispatch`
 
-Defines where events go after processing.
+Compiles routes and fans out events to sinks with per-sink queue/worker isolation.
 
-```go
-type Sink interface {
-    Name() string
-    Consume(ctx context.Context, e event.Event) error
-}
-```
+### `sinks`
 
-Registry-based construction allows daemons to opt into any sink drivers.
+Defines sink interface and sink registry. Built-ins include `stdout` and `nats`, with
+additional sink implementations at varying maturity.
 
-Sink	Status
-stdout	🟢 Implemented
-file	🔴 Stub
-postgres	🔴 Stub
-rabbitmq	🔴 Stub
+## Typical wiring
 
-All sinks are required to respect context cancellation.
-
-### Normalization (planned)
-**Status:** 🔵 Planned (API design in progress)
-
-Currently, most domain implementations normalize upstream data inside
-`sources.Source.Poll`, which leads to:
-- very large source files
-- mixed responsibilities (HTTP + mapping)
-- duplicated helper code
-
-The intended evolution is:
-- Sources emit raw events (e.g. `json.RawMessage`)
-- A dedicated normalization processor runs in the pipeline
-- Normalizers are selected by `Event.Schema`, `Kind`, or `Source`
-
-This keeps:
-- `feedkit` domain-agnostic
-- `sources` small and focused
-- normalization logic centralized and testable
-
-### Runner helper (planned)
-**Status:** 🔵 Planned (optional convenience)
-
-Most daemons wire together the same steps:
-- load config
-- build sources
-- build sinks
-- compile routes
-- start scheduler
-- start dispatcher
-
-A small, opt-in `Runner` helper may be added to reduce boilerplate while keeping the system explicit and debuggable.
-
-This is not intended to become a framework.
-

-//     (e.g. "weather.observation.v1").
+//	// start dispatcher similarly...
 //
 // # Context and cancellation
 //
-// All blocking or I/O work should honor ctx.Done():
-//   - sources.Source.Poll should pass ctx to HTTP calls, etc.
-//   - sinks.Sink.Consume should honor ctx (Fanout timeouts only help if sinks cooperate).
-//
-// Future additions (likely)
-//
-//   - A small Runner helper that performs the standard wiring (load config,
-//     build sources/sinks/routes, run scheduler+dispatcher, handle shutdown).
-//   - A normalization hook (a Pipeline Processor + registry) that allows sources
-//     to emit "raw" payloads and defer normalization to a dedicated stage.
-//
-// # Non-goals
-//
-// feedkit does not define domain payload schemas, does not enforce domain kinds,
-// and does not embed domain-specific validation rules. Those live in each
-// concrete daemon/module (weatherfeeder, newsfeeder, ...).
+// All blocking work should honor context cancellation:
+//   - source polling/streaming I/O
+//   - sink consumption
+//   - any expensive processor work

+// Package normalize provides an OPTIONAL normalization hook for feedkit pipelines.
