CONTROL 01

Safe batch automation

Versioned job rules, idempotent transitions, human review, appeal, and kill switch.

CONTROL 02

Locked before discussion

500 finalists are scored independently before panel evidence becomes visible.

CONTROL 03

Timed accountability

2,000 events follow the 24-hour reminder, 48-hour breach, and 72-hour hold.
