System Spec // API Protocol

THE SYSTEMIC GAZE.

In FlowGazer, the API is not just a data transport layer. It is the Enforcement Engine. Every endpoint is hard-coded to prevent process drift and ensure physical state integrity.

Protocol 01

Pulse Sync Integration

Recursive Validation Middleware

Every mutation request (Story Update, Task Completion, Role Claim) triggers a Pulse Sync. This middleware performs a recursive audit of the entire entity tree before the database transaction is committed.

CHECK: TASK_STATES_ALIGNED
CHECK: STORY_LIGHT_SYNCED
INITIATING: ATOMIC_COMMIT
Protocol 02

Atomic State Gating

Hard-Coded Authorization

FlowGazer's API enforces role-purity at the schema level. A request to flip a Staging gate to Green will be rejected with a 403_FORBIDDEN unless the authenticated user holds the QA or OPS role. There are no "UI-only" buttons; the API is the law.

  • Self-Review Block (Four Eyes Law)
  • Upwards Edit Protection (Admin Shield)
  • Bypass Audit Mandatory (Justification Required)
Protocol 03

Environmental Sync

Future Physical Integration

The API protocol is designed to transition from human-gated to environment-gated. Our Gaze Logic is architected to accept physical health-check payloads, ensuring that "Done" means "Deployed and Verified."
