Decisions

  • Every inbound trigger is authenticated: webhooks by signature, the API by workload or human identity, schedules by the platform's own identity. There is no anonymous way to consume a build slot.
  • Nothing is written back to source control except a check status and its summary. The platform is not a committer.
  • The audit and SIEM feed is the compliance interface and is a batch export of write-once evidence, not a query API into live run metadata.

Deliberate omissions

  • Container registry push, identity federation, package mirroring, chat notification and cost reporting are all real surfaces, drawn in views 14, 21 and 18 where they carry more meaning.

Risks

  • The check-status surface is the one place the platform's availability is visible on every pull request. Degrading it degrades the perceived health of source control itself.
