The Console

The surface where decisions are made, captured, and inspected.

MeshQu's operational system. Policies are authored here. Decisions flow through here. Receipts are issued here. Chains are inspected here.

This page documents the working surface that produces the receipts described elsewhere on the site. It's written for evaluators who have understood the primitive and want to see the system around it.

§ 01The authored object

Every decision binds to a policy version a human ratified.

Policies are typed objects, not free-form documents. Drafts are separate from active versions. Maker-checker is a tenant toggle. AI assistance produces first drafts; the human reviews, edits, ratifies.

  • a — typed

    Rules, not prose

    Thresholds, eligibility, conditional branches, temporal constraints. Each rule carries severity, label, and a default outcome.

  • b — ratified

    Drafts ≠ active

    A new version takes effect only on ratification. Prior versions are preserved indefinitely; the history is the audit trail.

  • c — assisted

    AI drafts, humans ratify

    Opt-in tenant feature. Author describes a rule; the assistant returns a structured first draft. Human edits are logged.

§ 02Composition

Real institutional policy is composed, not authored as one document.

A policy group is a named composition organised by contract, regulation, or business domain. Decisions reference the group version; the group version references the exact versions of its constituent policies.

  • a — composed

    Programme, not policy

    Screening, escalation, override, and closure operate together. The group binds them into one composite version.

  • b — versioned

    Group moves forward together

    When one constituent policy advances, the group advances. Old decisions remain bound to the older composite.

  • c — resolvable

    One id, one snapshot

    The group version on a receipt resolves deterministically to a single composite snapshot — eighteen months later, still.

§ 03Observation

The Explorer is the index into the corpus of receipts.

Every decision the system captures appears in the feed at the moment it is sealed. Filter by type, verdict, actor, policy, group, regulation clause, date, or chain. The Investigation Panel surfaces receipt, trace, and chain.

  • a — queryable

    Filter the corpus

    Decision type, verdict, actor, policy, group, regulation clause, date range, or chain membership.

  • b — inspected

    Three views per receipt

    Details (verdict, violations, governance, proof), Trace (rule-by-rule evaluation), Chain (where it sits in any chain it belongs to).

  • c — anchored

    Lens into regulation

    Regulation-lens drilldown lands you in the feed already filtered to decisions touching a single clause of a single regulation.

§ 04Attestation

Human decisions and automated decisions are the same kind of object.

A policy generates two surfaces from one definition: the evaluator that automated systems call, and a human-facing attestation form. Both run through the same evaluator. The receipt is structurally identical.

  • a — paired

    One policy, two surfaces

    Authoring updates the evaluator and the human form together. They cannot drift; they are derived from the same object.

  • b — shareable

    Public link or inline

    Forms open inside the console or share via one-use token or counterparty password. The attester’s identity is captured at the moment.

  • c — uniform

    Same envelope, different actor

    Same canonical fields, same signature, same anchoring. A regulator cannot tell from the schema which receipts were attested by a person.

§ 05Sequence

Most decisions are sequences. The console captures them as chains.

A chain is a hash-linked sequence where each step references the receipt of its parent. The chain seals when the workflow closes. Replay re-runs any decision against the policy in force when it was made. Export produces an offline-verifiable bundle.

  • a — linked

    Hash-linked, sealed

    Every step references the receipt of its parent. The sealed chain is itself a verifiable object; linkage is checked from one action.

  • b — replayed

    Original vs replayed hash

    Re-run any decision against the snapshot in force when it was made. Divergence surfaces as a hash mismatch — values shown side by side.

  • c — exported

    Self-contained bundle

    JSON or tar. Receipts, policy snapshots, public keys, canonical-JSON forms. Verifiable offline; no access to MeshQu required.

§ 06Posture

A feedback loop into authoring — not a risk score or a traffic light.

Two surfaces read decisions back into policy. The dashboard reads the corpus through the regulation’s own vocabulary or through the institution’s programme structure. Per-policy and per-group health views summarise decision behaviour. No composite scores, no percentages.

  • a — regulation lens

    Clause-by-clause posture

    Each clause’s open queue, rendered in the regulation’s own words. Ratifications outstanding. Reviews awaiting authority.

  • b — group lens

    Programme-by-programme

    Each policy group as a card — current activity, pending ratifications, open chains. One synthesis sentence at the top.

  • c — scoped

    Your corpus, not the industry

    All posture views are strictly your tenant. No aggregation across customers, no benchmarks, no comparative views.

61 decisions awaiting review across 9 groups.
