v1.2.0 · Quiet Open-Core

Mode A public baseline: Enforcement Kernel.

ActantOS v1.2.0 freezes the self-host Enforcement Kernel under Quiet Open-Core — installable, API-frozen, and locally verified. Stage 3 / v1.1.0 is not the Mode A public maturity baseline.

Stage 1 complete — tests are the gate

After the version ladder from demo hardening through Quiet Open-Core, v1.2.0 is the Mode A public cut: the Enforcement Kernel — installable, API-frozen, and green under automated tests. Ship criterion: built and tests pass means done. Semantic version is not production qualification.

Stage 1 is the Enforcement Kernel every later feature depends on. Stage 2 control-plane surfaces may be locally implemented. Stage 3 governed-autonomy contracts and full multi-tenant managed SaaS packaging are future or Mode B conditional — not claimed as the current free public baseline.

Capabilities

What's inside the kernel

Fail-closed enforcement

No tool action executes without an ActantOS Decision. Adapters hard-fail when the control plane is unreachable.

Deterministic policy

Cedar + risk rules return allow, deny, or approval_required — not LLM-as-judge.

Human-in-the-loop approvals

One-use, TTL-bounded web approvals with optional Slack. Replay is denied.

Pi Primary Path

Coding agents via guarded tools: the pilot-gating path for real developer workflows.

MCP Optional Path

Configure MCP clients through ActantOS for list filtering, call intercept, drift, and SSRF controls.

Evidence you can export

Hash-chained audit timelines plus session evidence packages for self-host review.

Docker self-host

Compose-backed install with sandbox baseline, kill switch, budgets, and rate limits.

Frozen /v1 API

Stable intercept, tool-result, operator, and MCP transport surface for integrators.

Demo story

Decision loop in one run

Fresh-install smoke exercises the full Pilot Workflow on the Pi primary path.

Safe workspace read

Decision: allow

Credential / .env read

Decision: deny

git push (side effect)

Decision: approval_required

After one-use approval

Decision: allow + token

Kill switch armed

Decision: deny next action

Evidence export

Decision: audit package

Open-core boundary

Free surface vs later platform

Self-host free surface

Everything needed to govern agents on your infrastructure under Quiet Open-Core v1.2.0 (Mode A):

  • Enforcement Kernel (actantosd decision API)
  • Cedar policy bundles + risk rules
  • Docker sandbox baseline
  • Pi guarded adapter path + optional MCP gateway
  • Web approval + optional Slack
  • Basic operator dashboard
  • Kill switch, budgets, rate limits
  • Hash-chain audit + local evidence export

Later / paid platform

Intentionally out of Mode A Quiet Open-Core v1.2.0 — future or conditional roadmap, not ship blockers for the self-host kernel:

  • Stage 3 multi-tenant foundation (conditional; not Mode A public baseline)
  • Fail-closed gVisor isolation contract
  • STS credential broker
  • Signed WORM-style Object Lock evidence archives
  • Durable SIEM webhook / Splunk HEC connectors
  • Full multi-tenant managed SaaS packaging
  • Firecracker microVM runtime (gVisor/runsc is the intended hardened path)
  • Enterprise memory vault
  • SCIM directory provisioning
