Declaration

Runnable behavior demonstration of the KTP loop: identical actor, credential, action, and policy across four environments, with verdicts moved only by the environment and by accumulated trajectory cost (the sleeper scenario).

governed objectaction, trajectory, environment
decision outputsALLOW, SHAPE, VETO
enforcement pointsin-process policy enforcement point (demo scope)
evidence outputshash-chained Flight Recorder records
known limitationsBehavior demo, not production enforcement: tamper-evident rather than tamper-proof; hand-set estimator weights published for attack; DEAUTOMATE not implemented in this demo; single-agent only; not yet published.

Claims

classclaimevidence statematurity
IMPLEMENTATION22 automated checks including 7 pre-registered falsifiers pass, covering environment-only causation, trajectory accumulation (sleeper), monotone resistance, conservative uncertainty, silent containment, and record integrity.SELF_ASSERTEDM1
SECURITYThe decision record is tamper-evident (hash-chained); it is not tamper-proof, and cryptographic non-bypassability is out of scope.SELF_ASSERTEDM1

Coordination

offers: reference behavior, pre-registered falsifiers, published estimator parameters
needs: independent evaluator, second implementation to test conformance against
