ByteCore Governed Gateway is a product-neutral deterministic governance runtime and evaluator. It places an explicit authority boundary between probabilistic AI output and operational consequence.
Model output and semantic admissibility are not authority. ByteCore evaluates whether a proposed AI-assisted output may become operative, records the exact disposition, and replays the proof—without executing the action.
Semantic assessment describes a proposal. A separate, bounded authority evaluation determines the governance disposition. Evidence and replay inspect that decision; neither performs an effect.
An operative ALLOW is an authorization artifact—not an executed action. The demonstrated runtime ends at an inspectable governance result.
03 Accepted reference matrix
Inspect every governed outcome.
The full evaluator renders precomputed canonical scenario data. Browser code selects a retained result; it does not decide, reinterpret, or alter an outcome.
✓
ALLOWAdmissible candidate and satisfied bounded authority
The evaluator demonstrates deterministic governance relationships over supplied reference facts. It does not convert those assertions into external truth or operational readiness.
✓ What it proves
Exact product-neutral governance contracts
Deterministic semantic policy resolution over supplied observations
Explicit bounded authority evaluation
One exact governance disposition per scenario
Tamper-evident evidence relationships
Deterministic replay of the same governed decision
Downstream execution remains unavailable
× What it does not prove
Authenticated identity or externally verified truth
Trusted time or revocation freshness
Cryptographic signing or external attestation
Regulatory certification or a compliance guarantee
Production deployment readiness
Live provider or model integration
Execution of an action

The public evaluator is the bounded, inspectable proof surface. The preserved Governance Spine documents provide the broader architecture layer for technical readers.
