KTP Environmental Demo registered
ktp-demo · prototype · first public 2026-07-24 · Apache-2.0
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 object | action, trajectory, environment |
| decision outputs | ALLOW, SHAPE, VETO |
| enforcement points | in-process policy enforcement point (demo scope) |
| evidence outputs | hash-chained Flight Recorder records |
| known limitations | Behavior 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
| class | claim | evidence state | maturity |
| IMPLEMENTATION | 22 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_ASSERTED | M1 |
| SECURITY | The decision record is tamper-evident (hash-chained); it is not tamper-proof, and cryptographic non-bypassability is out of scope. | SELF_ASSERTED | M1 |
Coordination
offers: reference behavior, pre-registered falsifiers, published estimator parameters
needs: independent evaluator, second implementation to test conformance against
