Decision type · supply chain gate

Jev as a pre-install and pre-merge gate

A gate has to answer a question the surrounding code can act on. Jev returns allow or refuse with a probability, in time to matter, which is what makes it usable mid-pipeline.

01Gate-shaped questions

Intent, severity and exfiltration risk are separate typed questions over the same state, so the verdict is decomposable and each part can be logged separately.

02Why a typed verdict beats prose here

Nothing downstream reads an explanation. The gate needs a boolean and a confidence, and it needs them inside the build's time budget.

03Failure modes

SKELETON — wave-1 prose pending: an allow-by-default gate changes nothing; the value depends entirely on what happens on a refuse.
