Launch readiness thresholds
- Low risk: read-only, full trace, human gate, no sensitive data.
- Medium risk: draft writes, partial automation, reviewer approval, manual rollback.
- High risk: production writes, sensitive data, weak logs, unclear owner.

Frequently asked questions
What is a launch blocker?
A launch blocker is a missing control that can let an agent take high-impact action without evidence, review, rollback, or a clear owner.
Can a high-risk score be acceptable?
A high-risk score can be acceptable only when the workflow stays in a constrained pilot with strong human review, logs, and explicit non-production limits.
