Risk-based inventory

Document each AI system’s purpose, responsible roles, data types, risk class, provider and deployment environment. Without a reliable inventory, reviews and the assignment of responsibilities remain incomplete.

Logging and traceability

For high-risk AI systems, the European Commission identifies logging, technical documentation and human oversight as core requirements. The control layer should capture the required operational evidence.

Human oversight

Critical decisions require defined approval and escalation paths with clear accountability. Not every agent action should be executed autonomously.

Technical policy enforcement

Each request must be evaluated against policies before a model is accessed or an action is executed. The evaluation should account for data classification, region, approved model and risk level.

From requirements to technical implementation

Within the existing control core, CODE S enforces workspace, role, data-classification, sovereignty and routing rules on the server side. Additional governance capabilities will be introduced as validated expansion packages.
