PROCEED — release permitted.
NEEDS_REVIEW — do not auto-release; route to an operator.
SILENCE — release denied, execution withheld, audit preserved.
SemeAI Gate is a post-generation release-control layer. It evaluates a candidate against policy, visible evidence, and current context before the host product releases, reviews, or withholds it.
The model output enters as a proposal, not an authorized answer.
Rules, business data, source support, risk, and context are evaluated.
The Gate—not generation or metadata—makes the release decision.
The host receives a restrained business-facing action.
The decision and its audit evidence remain available for inspection and replay.
PROCEED — release permitted.
NEEDS_REVIEW — do not auto-release; route to an operator.
SILENCE — release denied, execution withheld, audit preserved.
SHOW maps to PROCEED.
REVIEW maps to NEEDS_REVIEW.
BLOCK maps to SILENCE.
SILENCE is controlled non-release, not deletion. The candidate, decision, and audit trail remain distinct. Payment, metadata, and generation are not Gate authority.
A release checkpoint used after a model creates a candidate.
It does not replace the foundation model, generation runtime, or operator.
It is not an alignment replacement, universal safety proof, correctness guarantee, or production certification.
The Repository Evidence Benchmark has its own display-only Presentation Gate. It demonstrates inspectable decision flow; it is not SaC/PoR runtime release authority.
