Deterministic Evaluator Prep — PREP-POLICY-ENGINE-20-002-BUILD-DETERMINISTIC
Status: Draft (2025-11-20) Owners: Policy Guild Scope: Capture contract and constraints for deterministic policy evaluator before implementation.
Requirements
- Deterministic execution: no wall-clock, no RNG, no network; inputs must be content-addressed.
- Ordering: lexical rule ordering; first-match semantics; stable reduction order over inputs.
- Safe value types: disallow floats where not needed; prefer decimal with fixed scale.
- Timestamps: if required, use supplied
context.nowinjected value, not system clock.
Deliverables
- Document evaluator contract and constraints in
docs/modules/policy/design/deterministic-evaluator.md. - Provide sample config and test vectors under
docs/modules/policy/samples/deterministic-evaluator/(hashes recorded in the design doc).
Handoff
Use this doc as the prep artefact for PREP-POLICY-ENGINE-20-002-BUILD-DETERMINISTIC. Once constraints and samples are frozen, mark the sprint task DONE and unblock POLICY-ENGINE-20-002.
