# Airgap Overview
This page orients teams before diving into per-component runbooks. It summarises modes, lifecycle, and governance responsibilities for sealed deployments.
## Modes
- **Sealed**: deny-all egress; only preloaded bundles (mirror + bootstrap) allowed. Requires exported time anchors and offline trust roots.
- **Constrained**: limited egress to allowlisted registries and NTP; mirror bundles still preferred.
- **Connected**: full egress for staging; must remain policy-compatible with sealed mode.
## Lifecycle
1. **Prepare bundles**: export mirror + bootstrap packs (images/charts, SBOMs, DSSE metadata) signed and hashed.
2. **Stage & verify**: load bundles into the offline store, verify hashes/DSSE, record mirrorGeneration.
3. **Activate**: flip sealed toggle; enforce deny-all egress and policy banners; register bundles with Excititor/Export Center.
4. **Operate**: run periodic staleness checks, apply time anchors, and audit imports via timeline events.
5. **Refresh/rollback**: import next mirrorGeneration or roll back using previous manifest + hashes.
## Responsibilities
- **AirGap Controller Guild**: owns network posture (deny-all, allowlists), sealed-mode policy banners, and change control.
- **Export Center / Evidence Locker Guilds**: produce and verify bundle manifests, DSSE envelopes, and Merkle roots.
- **Module owners** (Excititor, Concelier, etc.): honor sealed-mode toggles, emit staleness headers, and refuse unsigned/unknown bundles.
- **Ops/Signals Guild**: maintain time anchors and observability sinks compatible with sealed deployments.
## Rule banner (sealed mode)
Display a top-of-console banner when `sealed=true`:
- "Sealed mode: no external egress. Only registered bundles permitted. Imports logged; violations trigger audit."
- Include current `mirrorGeneration`, bundle manifest hash, and time-anchor status.
