Every consequential autonomous action needs a Warrant.
AristotleOS is the warrant layer for governed autonomous action. It checks authority before execution, issues signed single-use Warrants for allowed actions, refuses unauthorized actions before emission, and writes replayable evidence.
What it is.
The execution boundary
AristotleOS sits after an agent, robot, workflow, or machine system proposes an action, but before that action becomes a real-world consequence.
The authority object
A Warrant is a signed, single-use authorization artifact bound to one canonical action. It is not standing machine power.
The evidence trail
Decisions, refusals, Warrants, and replay artifacts land in a Governance Evidence Ledger so reviewers can inspect what happened later.
Run it.
Use the quickstart and reviewer flow to verify the Commit Gate, Warrant verifier, mesh scenario, and replay artifact.
Challenge it.
Look for bypasses, overbroad claims, weak Warrant binding, mutable evidence, or adapter emission before refusal.
Place it.
Compare AristotleOS to policy engines, provenance systems, agent frameworks, and execution-control peers.
