Why start here?

Selvage builds the compliance baseline carefully without pretending to be a finished production layer today.

When do I need this?

Start here when you want to understand which compliance layer is emerging and what is intentionally not ready yet.

What role it plays here

Compliance-governance candidate in preparation.

Compliance must be prepared carefully before it can become a dependable part of the stack.

What the module actually does

Today it prepares compliance and screening posture without being presented as a finished production layer.

At the core

Aleph runtime stack compose baseline

Entity screening workflow export

WireMock mappings for screening test behavior

Fabric admission-preparation baseline for future fabric-all compliance-governance membership

What role it plays in the stack

jhf-selvage is currently work in progress and should be treated as not working / not production ready.

This repository is the new home for compliance-oriented Aleph screening runtime assets carved out from jhf-wire.

What this looks like in practice

Compliance must be prepared carefully before it can become a dependable part of the stack.

01

A signal comes in.

02

The system assigns the right role and path.

03

Execution happens through controlled handoffs.

04

Result and evidence return together.

How it fits into the system

Selvage does not stand alone. It connects to neighboring modules so a single capability becomes dependable follow-through.

Fabric The rules that always hold Beam The safety layer that stops risky change Wire The outward path that does not end in chaos Heddle The access layer that stays consistent everywhere

Important boundary

Selvage stays bounded to its role as Compliance-governance candidate in preparation. It does not replace other modules; it makes its part of the system traceable, connectable, and reviewable.

What is intentionally out of scope

production-grade deployment guarantees

completed migration/cutover automation

full CI hardening

What keeps this page honest

This explanation stays anchored to the module’s current truth, including its real boundaries, responsibilities, and contracts.

Selvage is the emerging compliance layer for admission preparation, screening, and governance baselines.

Today it prepares compliance and screening posture without being presented as a finished production layer.

Compliance must be prepared carefully before it can become a dependable part of the stack.

Do not treat as a finished production layer yet.
