In June, Google Cloud published the Open Knowledge Format, and July's v0.2 added provenance, verification and freshness. It is the right foundation. Regulated enterprises still need to add ownership, classification and a policy for how much trust an agent needs before it acts.
Context engineering7 min readThe open prototype at aac.muthub.org, described in its own notation and validated by its own rules. A level-by-level C4 walkthrough of the design decisions that mattered, and what I would change before an enterprise ran it.
Governed AI7 min readHanding an AI agent a production codebase without a harness is like putting a teenager in a sports car with no dual brakes. Deterministic guardrails and sensors, owned as a platform, are what make agents safe to scale.
Governed AI6 min readAI now writes code faster than any review board can read it, while architecture still moves at meeting speed. Governance has to become something that executes in the pipeline and in the agent's context.
Governed AI6 min readShipping AI-generated code without recording where it came from is unmanaged risk. Regulated teams need deterministic provenance for non-deterministic models: line-level attribution, Git-native session history and AI bills of materials.
Governed AI5 min readFor complex work in regulated sectors, prompt-to-code cannot pass an audit. Making the specification the contract an AI must fulfil can, provided the spec stays anchored to the code and machines check conformance.
AI-native SDLC6 min readAs agents multiply, every enterprise needs an authoritative directory of the tools they can call. What a governed MCP registry must do, what the official registry leaves to you, and the mistakes to avoid.
Governed AI5 min readThe Model Context Protocol standardizes how agents connect to tools and data. It is silent on whether they should. Four risk areas a regulated institution should resolve before agents get tools.
Governed AI6 min readWhen business meaning, data products and relationships live in one open catalog, agents stop guessing at tables and governance travels with the data.
