# Module Dependencies

## Scope

This file maps how Panel modules depend on:

- agents
- shared libraries
- other modules
- database tables
- AJAX endpoints
- external services

It answers the practical question: what can call what?

## Core Dependency Layers

```text
User / admin UI
  -> home.php module routing
  -> module page PHP files
  -> shared include libraries
  -> database layer
  -> agent RPC wrapper (lib_remote.php)
  -> Linux / Windows agents

AJAX / external API
  -> module endpoint PHP files or ogp_api.php / status_api.php
  -> same shared libraries and DB layer
  -> agent RPC where needed
```
