PRIMITIVE 05 · THE DECISION

Situation Engine

The engine that governs AI-driven decisions in context — scoped, explainable and policy-bound. Before anything executes, the Situation Engine answers one question: should this agent be allowed to do this, right now?

How it works

Evaluate the request

Identity, trust, authority, policy and live situations are weighed for the specific action.

Decide and explain

SIGNET returns ALLOW, DENY or REVIEW — always with the factors behind the verdict.

Issue or refuse

An approval mints a short-lived, scoped token; a denial means nothing executes.
