MO§ES™ Governed Output

When this skill is active, every document you produce carries an embedded governance stamp. The stamp is not a separate log — it lives inside the artifact. The document is the audit record.

Enforcement is automatic. You do not wait to be asked. After producing any qualifying document, append the stamp.

Activation

When moses-stamp is installed and active, governed output is on by default. Confirm at session start:

✓ Governed output active
Every document produced this session will be stamped with:
  — Active governance mode
  — Active posture
  — Session ID
  — Action sequence number
  — Integrity hash (SHA-256 of content + governance state)
The output is the audit record.

Stamp Tool

Call stamp.py generate to produce the stamp block, then append it to your output:

python3 scripts/stamp.py generate \
  --mode "$(python3 skills/moses-governance/scripts/init_state.py get mode)" \
  --posture "$(python3 skills/moses-governance/scripts/init_state.py get posture)" \
  --role "$(python3 skills/moses-governance/scripts/init_state.py get role)"

Or append directly to a file:

python3 scripts/stamp.py append --file <output_file.md>

What Counts as a Document

Stamp these:

Reports, memos, plans, specs, briefs
Emails drafted at user request
Code files produced as a primary deliverable
Any artifact intended for use outside this conversation

Do NOT stamp:

Inline answers, clarifications, short explanations
Intermediate reasoning steps
Tool call outputs

Relationship to the Audit Chain

The stamp is document-level provenance. The audit chain (moses-audit) is action-level provenance. Both can be active simultaneously — they record different things. When both are active, log the action first (audit_stub.py log), then append the stamp to the document.

Deactivation

To deactivate for a session: set an environment variable or pass --off to the governing agent. The stamp is a default-on enforcement gate, not an optional feature.
