...The system speaks registry protocols and understands layered image formats, resolving whiteouts and overlays so the mounted view matches what a container runtime would see. A FUSE (or platform-equivalent) frontend makes it trivial to integrate with existing tools: compilers, test runners, or debuggers can read files as if they were local. This lazy, verified access pattern is especially valuable in CI and developer workflows where you inspect or compile a few files from a massive base image. By treating registries as a read-only filesystem, CRFS turns image artifacts into first-class, quickly accessible build inputs.
