Evidence and privacy

The architecture emphasizes provenance, freshness, private storage, data minimization, consent/retention boundaries, and legal hold design.

• Minimum necessary disclosure
• Environment separation

Operational resilience

Controlled overrides, Emergency Operations Mode design, bounded workers, monitoring contracts, and fail-closed behavior define exceptional paths.

• Explicit outage boundaries

Production operations, alerts, backup/restore drills, external assessment, and legal approval remain pilot gates.
