AI Systems Assurance with Brutor — Part 5: Ship it through the gate

A contract is generated from the configuration, never written by hand: a hashed, versioned record of everything that governs a run, approved and promoted by a person. Part 5 covers the lifecycle gate and its high-risk floor, external evidence pinned by hash, and replay as an authorization diff over recorded traffic, then crosses the gate on camera: a new contract version minted, approved and promoted, and the system moved from proposed to approved to active with a named approver.

Brutor: https://www.brutor.ai Part of "AI Systems Assurance with Brutor", an introduction plus eight parts on one real system, the Brutor Demo System. Brutor is the AI control plane for AI systems assurance. Everything in the demo is synthetic: it shows the evidence, oversight and documentation mechanisms a real deployment would rely on and does not claim conformity with any law.
