Audit Trail
A complete, immutable ledger of actions, decisions, and outcomes.
What is recorded
The audit trail captures the full path from request to execution, with timestamps and accountability attached to every step.
- Request and intent metadata
- ALPHA decisions and receipts
- Execution outcomes and side effects
- Evidence Pack references
Immutable record
Entries are signed and anchored so tampering is visible.
Accountable actors
Every action is tied to a human or system identity.
Regulatory ready
Designed to satisfy audit and compliance review without reconstruction.
Time bound retention
Retention policies are enforced and documented alongside the record.
The Doctrinal Requirement
Audit is the record of enforcement. True enforcement requires the separation of execution and authority.
