# Island

> A discrete, loadable brain.

---

## What Is An Island

An island is a **bounded context** - a brain you can load.

```
islands/
├── identity.md
├── goals.md
└── lessons.md
```

---

## Why Islands

- Context windows are limited
- Load only what you need
- Keep brains discrete

---

### List Islands

```bash
vant islands list
```

### Load Island

```bash
vant islands load [island-name]
```

```
