# Default Approval Protocol
**Decision ID:** GOV-APPROVAL-001
**Status:** APPROVED
**Effective Date:** 2025-12-06
## Purpose
This protocol establishes a default decision-making framework for tasks blocked on approvals, staffing decisions, or owner assignments. It enables autonomous progress while maintaining accountability.
## 48-Hour Silence Rule
**Principle:** Silence within 48 hours of a documented request constitutes implicit approval.
### Scope
This rule applies to:
- Schema approvals pending guild review
- Design document sign-offs
- Staffing/owner assignment requests
- Contract freeze decisions
- Migration approval gates
### Exclusions
This rule does NOT apply to:
- Security-critical decisions (key rotation, credential issuance)
- Production deployment approvals
- Customer-facing contract changes
- License or legal decisions
## Decision Artifact Pattern
When a decision is needed, create a **Decision Contract** document:
```markdown
# <Topic> Decision Contract
**Decision ID:** DECISION-<ID>
**Status:** PENDING-APPROVAL (48h window starts: <timestamp>)
**Deadline:** <timestamp + 48h>
**Notify:** <guild-leads@stella-ops.org>
## Proposed Decision
<What is being decided>
## Rationale
<Why this is the recommended default>
## Impact
- Tasks unblocked: <count>
- Sprint files affected: <list>
## Reversibility
<How to override if the default is not acceptable>
```
After 48 hours without objection:
1. Update `Status:` to `DEFAULT-APPROVED`
2. Update dependent sprint files
3. Log in `docs/governance/decisions-log.md`
## Owner Manifest Pattern
When a task is blocked on staffing/ownership:
```markdown
# <Component> Owner Manifest
**Decision ID:** OWNER-<ID>
**Status:** ASSIGNED
**Effective Date:** <date>
## Assignment
<Component> is owned by <Guild/Team> for implementation purposes.
## Rationale
<Why this assignment makes sense>
## Scope
<What this owner is responsible for>
## Escalation Path
<Who to escalate to if blocked>
## Authority Granted
This manifest grants implementation authority to proceed with tasks
blocked on staffing.
```
## Governance Log
All decisions made via this protocol MUST be logged in:
- `docs/governance/decisions-log.md` (append-only)
- Relevant sprint file execution logs
## Escalation
If a decision is contested after default approval:
1. Raise in next daily standup
2. Escalate to steering committee if unresolved in 24h
3. Decision may be reversed but work already done is preserved
