REL & JRT Hardening (Platform Engineering)
Issue: AI SAFE² v3.0 possesses robust Layer 5 Orchestration circuit breakers (e.g., F3.2 Recursion Limits, F3.5 Cascade Containment). However, these must be explicitly bound to the new EFA Justified Reliance Threshold (JRT), which acts as the capstone operational rule requiring all five MECHA conditions (Machine State, Evidence, Commitment, Human State, Admissibility) to be satisfied prior to execution.
Risk Picture: "No admissible state. No executable action" is the core EFA mandate. If AI SAFE² allows an action to pass through the API gateway simply because standard parameters are met—without verifying that the holistic JRT conditions validate the system as reliable at that exact millisecond—the enterprise risks deploying autonomous actions that are legally and ethically inadmissible.
Strategic Position: This aligns the mechanical brakes of AI SAFE² directly with the moral and strategic boundary of EFA. It ensures that the Runtime Enforcement Layer (REL) acts as an impenetrable, non-bypassable execution boundary that evaluates the whole state of the machine and human before routing to ALLOW, ESCALATE, PAUSE, or REFUSE.
Recommended Actions:
- Update the API Gateway proxy logic to require a JRT_SATISFIED = TRUE flag before routing any Class H (High-Impact) action.
- Map specific JRT failure states to existing v3.0 countermeasures. For example, failing the JRT should immediately trigger the existing F3.5 (Multi-Agent Cascade Containment) and P3.T5.7 (Automated Kill Switch) protocols.
- Document the JRT evaluation architecture in the skills/SKILL.md file so AI engineers are aware of the hard gateway constraints.
