Architecture

Bounty-Hive enforces governance and custody controls on sensitive digital artifacts through lifecycle enforcement, policy validation, audit chains, and artifact verification.

Governance Lifecycle Flow

• Artifact Intake
• Identity Binding
• Policy Snapshot Binding
• Lifecycle Transition Validation
• Drift Detection
• Receipt Generation
• Audit Chain Logging
• Admission or Rejection
• Outbound Enforcement Gate
• Artifact Verification
• Revocation and Trust Invalidation

System Objective

The system ensures that artifacts are governed throughout their lifecycle and that downstream systems can verify artifact provenance, approval state, policy conditions, and lifecycle validity before accepting artifacts.
