GridGate
ResearchEarly work applying action permission to energy and grid operational limits.
What it checks
- Operational limit checks
- Permission before dispatch actions
What it does not check
- Research scope. Not for use in any live control system.
Research scope
This gate is early work with a limited scope. It is not certified, not validated for operational use, and must not be placed in any live control or clinical path. It is listed because the work is real, not because it is ready.

Deterministic Action Execution
Is this physical action allowed to happen?
DAX places a permission boundary between a decision and an action that affects hardware, machinery, infrastructure or another physical system. It is fail-closed: if the check cannot complete, the action does not proceed.

Evidence
Every verdict leaves a record
| Property | Behaviour |
|---|---|
| Determinism | The same input produces the same verdict. A result that does not reproduce is treated as a defect. |
| Signing | Verdicts are Ed25519 signed and anchored in a tamper-evident chain. |
| Replay | A sealed pack can be re-run later to detect verification drift. |
| Availability | Fail-closed. If this gate cannot be reached, the result is recorded as unavailable, never as a pass. |
| Independence | A third party can verify a pack without our source code and without contacting us. |
