DriftShield

White-box pre-action governance for AI agents.

Before AI acts, verify that its state and authority still stand.

Before consequence

Verify the state. Verify the authority. Then decide.

Action-relevant state Evaluate the governance state the action is relying on.
Present authority Determine whether the authority supporting that state still stands at evaluation time.
DriftShield evaluates admissibility before the downstream executor acts.
The Problem

An AI action can be technically possible while the state or authority behind it is no longer valid.

DriftShield focuses on the moment before consequence. It evaluates the governance state an action is relying on instead of assuming that previously valid artifacts, permissions, or context still justify the action now.
STATE

The relevant state may have changed

Inputs, source meaning, bindings, context, and other action-relevant facts can change between an earlier decision and the action that is about to occur.

AUTHORITY

Existing evidence does not prove present standing

An authority artifact can still exist even when the authority it represented has expired, changed, been revoked, or no longer applies to the current action.

What DriftShield Verifies

Reconstruct the action-relevant governance state before deciding whether the action is admissible.

DriftShield brings the evidence needed for a decision into one reviewable governance state rather than relying on a model answer or a single opaque risk score.
SOURCE LAYER

Where the governing state came from

Track the sources and normalization context that contributed to the state being evaluated.

FIELD BINDING

What each decision-relevant field means

Keep important fields bound to explicit semantic and authority context so the decision can be inspected rather than inferred from an opaque output.

AUTHORITY CONTEXT

Which authority supports the state

Evaluate the authority lineage and scope the action is relying on before that authority is allowed to support an admissibility decision.

ACTION-RELEVANT STATE

Only the state that matters to this action

Constitute the governance state relevant to the pending action instead of treating every available artifact as automatically decision-relevant.

How DriftShield Works

A white-box governance path from current state to pre-action admissibility.

The decision is constituted before execution handoff. DriftShield evaluates admissibility; the customer or host executor remains responsible for executing the downstream action.
Constitute State Build the action-relevant governance state from explicit source, field, and authority context.
→
Evaluate Standing Check whether the authority supporting that state still stands at evaluation time.
→
Evaluate Admissibility Determine whether the pending action may proceed under the current governance state.
DriftShield → governance decision
Receipt / evidence → reviewable decision record
Customer / host executor → downstream action
Why White-box

The governance decision should be explainable from the state and authority that constituted it.

DriftShield is designed around inspectable bindings and evidence so teams can review why a state was admitted, blocked, or sent for further handling without treating the model itself as the final governance authority.
TRACEABLE

Follow the decision back to its evidence

Keep decision-relevant fields connected to the sources, semantics, and authority context that gave them meaning.

REVIEWABLE

Inspect the boundary before consequence

Expose the governance state used at decision time so a human or downstream system can review what the action was allowed to rely on.

NON-RECURSIVE

The model is not its own final authority

Governance remains an explicit decision layer rather than asking another model output to become the ultimate authority for execution.

Temporal Standing

Artifact present does not automatically mean authority still stands.

DriftShield can evaluate whether authority that previously constituted an action-relevant state is still standing at evaluation time. A prior authorization is not treated as permanently valid merely because its artifacts still exist.
ARTIFACT
present
AUTHORITY STANDING
re-evaluate at decision time
PRE-ACTION RULE
material authority change → prior admissibility must not be inherited without revalidation
Receipt-bound Decisions

Keep the decision connected to the evidence that supported it.

A DriftShield decision can be carried with receipt and replay evidence so the governance state used at evaluation time remains reviewable after the decision is produced.
DECISION

Admissibility before execution

DriftShield evaluates whether the pending action is admissible under the current action-relevant governance state.

RECEIPT / REPLAY

Preserve the decision context

Bind the result to reviewable evidence so the state and authority behind the decision can be inspected and replayed.

EXECUTION HANDOFF

The executor remains downstream

DriftShield produces the governance decision. The customer or host executor performs the customer action.
