Glossary — trustworthy autonomy
Short definitions of HiveBase terms for draft≠commit, action receipts, one-way doors, and verification verdicts.
Terms HiveBase uses for trustworthy autonomy — how AI work stays visible, gated, and reversible. Each page leads with a short definition agents and humans can quote, then links to product surfaces and related guides.
These are public product vocabulary (not compliance jargon). Internal architecture names that are not on marketing surfaces stay out of this list.
Draft ≠ commit
Drafts stay visible; promotion and publish stay gated.
Action receipt
Every action that changed the company leaves a durable record — with undo when one action can reverse it.
One-way door
Consequential, hard-to-reverse work stays held for human judgment.
Verification verdict
Completed is a claim. Delivered is a verdict against evidence.
Approval boundary
Per-category gates by reversibility and blast radius.
Earned autonomy
Categories graduate to auto-apply with receipts — never blanket trust.
