Approval must be tied to authority.

Praxis for Risk and Compliance
A compliant-looking workflow can still invite unsafe reliance.
Start in the practice language people already use. Then use Praxis to distinguish the signal from the promise, the carrier from the capability, and proof from the status label.
Diagnostic move
Translate the practice into promise work.
A workflow can show approved or safe to proceed before the authority boundary is crossed or the evidence is current. Praxis makes the refusal, escalation, and evidence paths visible instead of treating uncertainty as a defect.
The question is not whether the familiar artifact exists. The question is whether that artifact witnesses the promise people actually rely on.
- Signal
- The label, state, event, journey step, or metric that says something happened.
- Promise
- What someone treats as true because the product signaled it.
- Carrier
- Where, through whom, or through what the promise was encountered.
- Proof
- Evidence that would matter to the relying person, not only the internal system.
- Repair
- The owner and path when the promise cannot hold.
Translation
How Praxis enters this practice.
Safety signals need current evidence.
Refusal and escalation must remain truthful paths, not defects to hide.
Signals to inspect
Start with one label.
approved
safe to proceed
verified
authorized
