This tutorial demonstrates the OS-boundary contract of ns.governed_act(...): action_candidate → governance → act (or terminate on veto). Why this matters: you get a hard safety gate with a verifiable audit trail.

​
What you’ll build

  • Governed actions that emit action-candidate traces
  • A vetoed run with no act events
  • Artifacts that can be evaluated by trace-based scoring

​
Prerequisites

  • Python with noesis installed

​
Run the tutorial

uv run python -m tutorials.governed_side_effects

​
Notes

ns.governed_act(...) creates its own episode bundle. The tutorial locates the episode id by diffing runs_dir before and after each call.
