A signal is not authority.

An intent must earn the right to proceed. Account identity, risk, route and authority remain independent requirements.

01 / AUTHORITY ENGINE

Each gate matters.

Missing market data, stale evidence, an ambiguous account, an unsupported symbol, an unqualified producer, risk not established, missing authority or recovery state can block an intent.

Authority is not established. The intent cannot proceed.

Risk approval ≠ execution approval.

These are distinct conceptual states across authority, research and recovery. Qualification for dry run does not authorize broker execution.

04 / EXECUTION DISCIPLINE

Uncertainty is a state to resolve.

Durable reservation

Preserve the intended action before a submission starts. Submission-start state is distinct from outcome truth.

Reconciliation

An uncertain mutation result requires authoritative reconciliation. No blind retry after uncertain mutation.

Restart recovery

Recover durable state with explicit uncertainty and operator review rather than assuming a restart cleared the outcome.

Risk governance

Account-specific, venue-specific, explicit and versioned risk is separate from strategy signal generation. Risk approval ≠ execution approval.
