Bounds, brakes and the stop control

Each lane runs inside a scope you set, every new behavior has a kill switch, and you can brake one lane or the whole fleet.

Bounds

Each lane runs inside the scope you set: which systems it may touch, what it may change, and which moves need a person.

Brakes and the stop control

You name who may switch it off; on the first steps that is the decision owner and IT. Autonomy is set per lane, and new automation runs in shadow first: it records what it would have done and does nothing outside, with a decision date and a kill switch. You can brake one lane or the whole fleet. Every approval is logged, so you can see what it did.

Autonomy control, by category

• What the category typically offers: Frameworks offer a human-in-the-loop hook; automation is on or off per flow.
• What OCTOPUS does: Autonomy is set per lane. New behavior runs in shadow first, with a decision date and a kill switch. Brake the whole fleet or one lane.
• Question to ask any vendor: Show the autonomy setting for one lane and the kill switch for one new behavior.
