01 — Enforcement
Single Decision Authority
Every agent action clears one gate. No parallel paths. No implicit permission by silence.
Governance For AI That Acts
If your AI can act, you already have a governance problem.
Governance for AI that acts. Operational control with evidence you can defend.
If AI can access regulated data, call tools, trigger workflows, modify systems, or issue outputs teams treat as decisions — the problem is not model quality. It is governed execution.

Exec Summary //
If your AI can act, you need evidence — not reconstruction.
AI systems now read internal data, call tools, change system state, and emit outputs organizations treat as operational decisions. Evidence trails are often thin. Authority is often vague. When scrutiny arrives, everyone becomes a historian.
Primary Entry Offer
AI Governance Exposure Scan
A fixed-scope diagnostic for agentic systems, connected tools, and AI-enabled workflows. Fixed fee. Executive-ready findings.
Evidence Primitive
Telemetry, not reconstruction.
Control fails when it is written after the fact. Evidence has to be created at the moment action occurs.
Control Layer
Three things ZDG puts in the runtime path.
02 — Recording
Evidence Integrity
Every decision is recorded with the inputs, the policy version, and the outcome. Replay is possible. Reconstruction is not required.
03 — Correctness
Policy-Versioned Correctness
What the system does reflects what the policy says — with the version active at decision time on the record.
Proof of Control
This is real, not a claim.
Two commands. Verifiable output. No dashboard. No summary.
Decision explanation
python -m core.zdg_control_center explain --task-id <id>Returns the decision record: inputs evaluated, policy version, outcome, approval status. One command, one auditable answer.
System integrity verification
python -m core.zdg_control_center audit-integrityVerifies the evidence chain across all governed runs. No gap means no decision was made without a record.
What this proves
- The decision is enforced — not logged after the fact
- The decision is recorded — with the exact inputs that produced it
- Evidence is linked — to the run, policy version, and operator action
- System integrity is verifiable — on demand, not only at audit time
The Stack
Four products. One control layer.
AFW
Agent Firewall
Evaluates every agent action before it executes. Returns ALLOW, HOLD, or BLOCK. No action clears without it.
BB / FR
Black Box / Flight Recorder
Records every governed event with replay fidelity. What happened, what was decided — all replayable, none reconstructed.
AIS
Agent Immune System
Surfaces behavioral signals — reasoning drift, escalation, deception — during the run. Not in the post-mortem.
ACP
Control Plane
Where human judgment is explicit and bound to execution. Approval is recorded, not implied by inaction.
Enterprise Operators
Risk, control, and auditability.
For organizations deploying AI in consequential workflows — where decisions must be defended, approvals recorded, and evidence must survive scrutiny.
Builders
ZDG-FR Developer Edition
The Flight Recorder in developer form. Instrument your agent, capture governed runs, and produce verifiable output from the first deployment.
Governance for AI that acts should look like operational control — not retrospective explanation.
Next Step
Start with an exposure scan. Move to runtime control.
The scan identifies where your governance posture is absent or undefendable. The platform gives you the infrastructure to close those gaps.
