Governance Across Layers
Governance is enforced at infrastructure, agent, policy, and decision layers.
Infrastructure Governance
Kubernetes, secrets, network and runtime isolation controls.
  • Namespace and deployment isolation
  • Secrets & config governance
  • Runtime health and fail-safe controls
Agent Governance
Tool permissions, autonomy boundaries, mission binding and kill switches.
  • Allowed tools per agent
  • AL1-AL3 autonomy limits
  • Supervisory escalation path
Policy Governance
Lifecycle-managed policies with versioning, approval, simulation and rollback.
  • Policy version catalog
  • Approval gates for breaking changes
  • Policy simulation and impact preview
Decision Governance
Decision traces, evidence hashes, replay, and human override auditability.
  • Decision lineage and replay
  • Immutable evidence packs
  • Human-in-the-loop audit trail
