Sandbox Protocol Governance

Sandbox protocol governance is the framework that keeps exploratory work

Body

Sandbox Protocol Governance

Purpose

Sandbox protocol governance is the framework that keeps exploratory work isolated from governed production. The current canonical scope is the UAPI Explorer split between production CT121 and sandbox CT126, but the same discipline applies to CT123 (Beacon-next sandbox) and CT124 (Cortex sandbox). The protocol exists because past agents have "restored" intentionally-deleted state or hot-patched production during exploratory work, and the operator explicitly wants that pattern blocked.

Current State

  • Status: active.
  • Canonical doc: uai-doc-docs-runbooks-sandbox-protocol (created 2026-06-20).
  • Production target (UAPI Explorer): CT121 (10.0.0.121).
  • Sandbox target (UAPI Explorer): CT126 (10.0.0.126, uai-explorer-sandbox).
  • Other sandboxes governed by the same discipline: CT123 (Beacon-next), CT124 (Cortex vNext).

Rules

  • Do not stop, restart, destroy, or redeploy production CT121 during sandbox work.
  • Do not reuse the production deploy script as-is — deploy-sandbox.sh refuses to run against CT121 by design.
  • Do not create public DNS, TLS, firewall, or reverse-proxy routes for any sandbox.
  • Do not copy raw secret-bearing folders into sandbox data.
  • Compress the sandbox cycle if it is slow; do not bypass it.

Sibling Principles (from operator bio)

  • "Check diary before restoring state." — grep the diary index for prior takedown intent before re-creating deleted rows or re-deploying taken- down services. Past agents have "restored" intentionally-deleted state as side-effect fixes during unrelated cleanup.
  • "Don't rationalize gaps as design." — if something is missing, name it as a gap.

Key Components / Locations

  • Canonical runbook: uai-doc-docs-runbooks-sandbox-protocol.
  • UAPI Explorer sandbox deploy script: deploy-sandbox.sh.
  • CT126 rollback rehearsal snapshot: mr022g-20260620-191542.

Relationships

  • Governed sandboxes: uai-doc-ecosystem-hardware-ct126 (UAPI Explorer), uai-doc-ecosystem-hardware-ct123 (Beacon-next), uai-doc-ecosystem-hardware-ct124 (Cortex).
  • Governed production counterpart: uai-doc-ecosystem-hardware-ct121 (UAPI Explorer).
