Product
A deliberate boundary between proposal and consequential action.
EthosGate is currently offered for Shadow and Advisory pilots. It helps teams examine exact actions, preserve context, classify consequence, and route consequential requests to the right human authority. It does not claim live protected-action enforcement.
01
Input / action
A proposed action is expressed with its objective, target, tool, parameters, and stated limits.
02
Evidence / context
Available evidence, provenance, affected parties, permissions, and uncertainties are retained with the request.
03
Consequence
The potential human, financial, security, and reversibility impact is classified before a decision.
04
Invariants / policy
Non-negotiable protections are considered before organization policy overlays and operational signals.
05
Decision / reason
The system presents one canonical outcome with a concise evidence-based rationale: ALLOW, MODIFY, QUESTION, ESCALATE, or REFUSE.
06
Human authority
When the boundary requires it, the action remains paused for an authorized human decision.
07
Authorization concept
A future protected boundary would bind authorization to the exact reviewed action; the current commercial scope does not claim live enforcement.
08
Audit record / outcome
Decision inputs, applicable constraints, review state, and observed result can be retained for inspection.
Current scope
Shadow first. Advisory with human authority.
Pilot work starts by comparing proposed decisions to human review without authorizing execution. Any discussion of future bound authorization remains an architectural concept until a protected tool is independently verified end to end.
