What actually happened

The Proof walkthrough is illustrative — it shows the shape of DaemonCore's governance. This page shows a genuine recording of the real runtime admitting a request through the governance gate: RUN-001, captured from an actual execution rather than reconstructed.

This recording is partial by design. It captures the admission phase — identity, publication, the governance gate and Execution creation — and stops there. No model executed, the governance gate ran in advisory mode, and the execution was left unsealed. Nothing below has been cleaned up: the genuine advisory warnings are part of the evidence. The full provenance, and everything this recording does not show, is listed within the player.

Recorded (genuine runtime execution) — Partial

Execution Timeline — Recorded Admission (RUN-001)

The chronological journal of a genuine admission: two immutable events, in recorded order, at their original timestamps. events.ndjson is authoritative for order and timing.

Genuine recording. Admission phase only; governance gate advisory; unsealed; not independently verified. Timing shown is execution timing from the journal — never playback cadence.

What this execution did not contain

  • No model execution — RUN-001 captured the admission phase only; no Model Execution, Review or Publication stage occurred.
  • No branching, retries or parallel activity — the recorded sequence is linear.
  • No failure — the execution reached admission and is unsealed (state: processing); there is no terminal success or failure.
  • Total execution time is unknown — without a sealed terminal event, only the span between recorded events can be measured.
