DAACWhat we’re building

What makes the workflows run.

Finding evidence, making it comparable, building systems and governing the work take different tools. Each has a defined job. Together they let a solution evolve without losing the reasoning and controls it depends on.

These pages describe the tools’ roles. Capabilities are at different stages of development; we confirm what is available when scoping the work.

Operate and verify the workCoordinate work, check behaviour and keep access within agreed boundaries.
ConsoleObserveThe control room

Brings progress and operating signals into one view, so people can see what is being built, what is running and where attention is needed.

ConcordProposeThe coherence tool

Compares specifications, code and the solutions built from them. It identifies disagreement and proposes a correction for the responsible owner.

GaugeVerifyThe runtime verifier

Exercises a running system and compares its behaviour with requirements or a reference build. Its findings guide fixes and release decisions.

HelmActuateThe orchestrator

Dispatches work within defined permissions, records the result and brings decisions back for human review.

StewardActuateThe estate operator

Operates the infrastructure behind the suite, including provisioning, patches, backups and health checks, through governed actions.

TallyGovernThe logging-loop custodian

Checks that work is recorded in the right place and has someone responsible for reading and acting on it.

ManifoldRouteThe model-provider switch

Routes a request for model capability to a provider through a shared contract, keeping provider choice separate from each tool’s implementation.

LatchSecureThe identity substrate

Provides a shared sign-in and session contract, so tools can authenticate people consistently.

FathomSoundThe live-DB read harness

Allows governed queries against a database through a read-only interface, without opening a second route for changing its data.

This site is a Mason build. What each build learns goes back into the templates the next site and hub front door fork from.
