02 — Governed Officialization Post-Vote Readiness (2026-06-04)

4 min read Revision 1

02 — Governed Officialization Post-Vote Readiness (PHASE B)

Status: COMPLETE to safe frontier. Officialization is one true human-president vote (per step) away. No authority faked. Additive, read-only, birth-free (1,174,027 before==after apply).

Handler architecture (verified live)

The 5 PROC-OWN handlers (fn_pa_handler_{assign_axis_owner, register_axis, register_process, assign_governance_owner, activate_event_type}) all delegate to one core planner fn_pa_domain_handler(code, actor, actor_type, execute) which is declared STABLE — i.e. it physically cannot write, even if called with execute=true. It only returns a JSON plan that is either BLOCKED (fail-closed) or PREVIEW (authority present, but canon write is still a separate deliberate governance step). Canon is never auto-written by any handler.

Gate order inside the planner:

  1. actor_type <> 'human' → BLOCKED (AI can never satisfy president authority).
  2. no human-president approve vote in apr_approvals → BLOCKED.
  3. needs-owner steps (PROC-OWN-02/03/05) without governance_object_ownership(axis:AX-PROCESS) → BLOCKED.

Fail-closed re-proof (live this run)

Call Result
fn_pa_handler_assign_axis_owner('agent-data-bot','ai_agent') BLOCKED — actor_type=ai_agent cannot satisfy president authority (human-only)
fn_pa_handler_register_axis('some-human','human') BLOCKED — no human-president approve vote on PROC-OWN-02 (apr_approvals=0)
fn_pa_handler_register_process('some-human','human') BLOCKED — vote checked before owner; same gate2

New artifacts added (birth-free, read-only; rollback 99_rollback.sql)

  1. v_process_axis_officialization_sequence — ordered chain with live gate + next action:
    • 1 PROC-OWN-01 (no dep) → assign axis owner
    • 2 PROC-OWN-02 (dep 01) → axis_registry status=ACTIVE
    • 3 PROC-OWN-03 (dep 02) → axis_assignment job:cut (official RP 0→1)
    • 4 PROC-OWN-04 (dep 01) → dot:kg family governance owner (enables 10-split post REAL_RUN)
    • 5 PROC-OWN-05 (dep 02) → activate process.* events (7 rows)
    • All 5 currently BLOCKED_NO_PRESIDENT_VOTEAWAIT: human-president approve vote.
  2. v_process_axis_approval_side_effect_preview — per PROC-OWN: intent, target collection, exact write enabled after the canon step, and live blocker. All 5 phase=BLOCKED.
  3. fn_pa_post_vote_dryrun() — read-only cascade projection for decision support; reports president_approve_votes_on_proc_own=0, axis_owner_present=false, real_run_enabled=false, and the 5-step plan. Writes nothing (labeled HYPOTHETICAL/READ-ONLY).

Required officialization sequence (for the authority holder)

PROC-OWN-01 (assign AX-PROCESS owner) → PROC-OWN-02 (canon axis) → PROC-OWN-03 (job:cut official process; first axis_assignment row) → candidate confirmations → process.* event activation (PROC-OWN-05). PROC-OWN-04 (dot:kg family owner) is parallel after 01 and gates the dot:kg split.

Authority absent → nothing executed

president votes 0, ownership 0, real_run_enabled false. No vote/owner/canon faked. Exact blocker: human-president approve vote on PROC-OWN-01..05. No engineering blocker.
