02 / The Protocol

Every engagement follows the sequence.

Five phases. Sequential enforcement. Phases cannot be skipped or reordered. Attempting to bypass results in immediate engagement termination.

  1. Discover

    Initial exposure to a decision system.

    No commitment. No data exchange. Understanding only.

  2. Screen

    Light risk detection. No commitment allowed.

    Surface-level compatibility check. Refusal is common and expected.

  3. Audit

    Structured verification. Human review where required.

    Deep examination of authority, data custody, and exit paths.

  4. Deploy

    Controlled system activation with defined boundaries.

    Boundaries enforced. Override paths logged. Monitoring begins.

  5. Monitor

    Ongoing risk and rule tracking.

    Continuous verification that system operates within defined constraints.

Non-negotiable

No phase is optional.
No phase is reversible.

Attempting to bypass or reorder these phases will result in immediate engagement termination. Begin only if the protocol is acceptable in full.
