### Description (declared)

The open-source governance layer for AI agents. CLI coding agents work out of the box (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, +40 more). No model in the coordination loop, so replaying a plan reproduces its task graph byte-identically. Signed lineage plus an opt-in HMAC audit chain a reviewer checks offline, without rerunning it. Cluster mode, air-gap deploy.
