Path Selection Logic

Logic gate for choosing the right delivery path.

decisionsrisksetupspeed

Purpose: Answer one question: "Are we moving forward for the right reason—and at the right risk?" Do not build a POC if you do not need one.

🎭Tone:Logic-driven. Risk-adjusted. Non-negotiable.

The AI Auto-Selection Engine

In the Governance OS platform, you do not manually pick your phases. The Accelerator Path is auto-selected by the AI Auditor based on your Lens GapScore triggers:

Gap TriggerSystem Action
If Feasibility (F) ≥ 3Force POC (Feasibility must be proven)
If Behavior (B) ≥ 3Force Pilot (Real-world behavior must be tested)
If Dependency (D) ≥ 3Force Pilot (Volatility must be confronted in reality)
If Value (V) ≥ 3BLOCK BUILD (No MVP allowed until objectives are clear)

The Skip-Phase Justification (Deviation Record)

The platform allows you to manually override the AI's recommended path. However, bypassing an auto-selected phase (e.g., skipping a Pilot when Dependencies are highly volatile) converts unknowns into latent incidents.

Executing a Deviation in the OS

When you override the Accelerator path in the Lens Wizard, the platform forces the creation of a Cryptographic Deviation Record. It requires:

  • Identify the skipped phase (What are we bypassing?).
  • State the justification (Why is the AI wrong?).
  • Name the Risk Owner (Who is personally accepting the liability?).
The Liability Rule
Unjustified skips externalize risk onto delivery teams. Skipping is allowed, but the risk must be bought and paid for with a named signature. If the Risk Owner field is blank, the deviation is mathematically invalid.
