How Mirror OS Works
Mirror OS orchestrates five products into a unified governance system. Each product has a clear responsibility, and they work together to ensure every AI decision is governed, recorded, and auditable.

Component Responsibilities
Mirror Trust Layer
Orchestration & EnforcementThe institutional governance layer that orchestrates all other components and enforces policy at decision boundaries.
Mirror Ledger Engine
Evidence & AuditRecords and seals every decision. Invoked by all components to generate regulator-grade evidence trails.
Mirror Guard
Decision InterceptionControls I/O risk in real time. Enforces regulatory constraints at the decision boundary.
Mirror Gateway
Governed OrchestrationControls orchestration, cost, and quality across agents and models within institutional boundaries.
Mirror Memory
Reasoning ContinuityStabilizes multi-step reasoning chains. Preserves context integrity and rollback points.
Design Principles
Separation of Concerns
Each component has a single responsibility. No component can override another's decisions.
Evidence by Default
Every decision boundary invokes Ledger Engine. Audit trails are automatic, not optional.
Fail-Safe Design
When in doubt, the system fails closed. No decision proceeds without governance clearance.
Human-in-the-Loop
Policy changes require explicit human approval. The system does not self-modify.
