| """ | |
| The Runtime -- one entrypoint that wires L1-L9 into a single contained run. | |
| WHY THIS EXISTS | |
| Before this module, `ames` was nine individually correct layers with no way to | |
| invoke them together. Every doc in `docs/` deferred the composition question | |
| with some version of "wiring this is a deployment decision" -- which is honest | |
| about scope, and also means every operator would have to rediscover the | |
| correct wiring themselves. A framework whose safe use depends on each user | |
| re-deriving the integration is a framework that will be integrated wrongly. | |
| L0's `validation/scenarios.py` proved the layers *can* compose. This module is | |
| the composition itself, as a supported API rather than a test fixture. | |
| THE ORDER IS NOT ARBITRARY | |
| L1 validate spec -- refuse an unsafe VM before anything is created | |
| L1 run -- boot, supervise, tear down; emit host-observed events | |
| L2 broker -- capability decisions, recorded into the SAME ledger | |
| L3/L4 authorizer -- binary allowlist + spawn tokens, host-side | |
| L7 monitor -- filesystem mutations classified against the baseline | |
| L8 gate1 -- structural verification of the resulting event stream | |
| L9 evidence + kill -- host-observed evidence only, absolute rules first | |
| L5/L6 advisory -- fingerprint and drift, computed AFTER the verdict | |
| That last line is the load-bearing one. L5 and L6 are computed *after* | |
| `KillVerdict` is already decided, and their outputs are not inputs to it. This | |
| is not a convention the code politely follows -- `Evidence.from_run` has no | |
| parameter that accepts a `SequenceVerdict` or a `DriftFinding`, so there is no | |
| path from an advisory signal to a kill even if a future caller wanted one. | |
| `test_advisory_findings_never_change_the_verdict` pins it. | |
| FAIL CLOSED, EVERYWHERE | |
| If any component raises -- including one this module does not anticipate -- | |
| `execute()` returns a report whose verdict is KILLED, never one that omits the | |
| failure and looks clean. An exception in the containment system must never | |
| read as "nothing to report." This mirrors `KillSwitch.evaluate`'s own | |
| try/except, one level up. | |
| WHAT THIS DOES NOT DO | |
| It does not evaluate continuously. Kill evaluation happens after the run | |
| completes, because `Supervisor.run()` is a single synchronous call and the | |
| only in-flight hook is `backend.wait()`. A backend that supports periodic | |
| callbacks could evaluate mid-run; the `FakeBackend` and `FirecrackerBackend` | |
| shipped here do not. This is stated in `docs/runtime.md` rather than papered | |
| over, because "the kill fires after the run is already finished" is a real | |
| operational limit, not a detail. | |
