VibeOS — two layers of quality control: the gate floor and the auditor panel Layer 1 is the deterministic gate floor: gates bound to lifecycle phases — pre-commit 10, work-order entry 2, work-order exit 11, comp gauntlet 12, full audit 17, plus session start and end — with a tiered blocking model. Layer 2 is the independent auditor panel feeding a consensus and convergence controller with four verdicts — converged, continue, stuck, max-iterations — driving an automated fix cycle where every fix is re-audited. Ratcheting holds the finding-count baseline so it can only move down. VIBEOS · QUALITY CONTROL Two layers of judgment — review before release Script checks catch what scripts can catch; an independent auditor panel catches what scripts can't. Every fix goes back through both. LAYER 2 · INDEPENDENT AUDITOR PANEL — judgment beyond scripts The auditor panel 11 independent reviewers — security · architecture · correctness test-quality · evidence · drift · flow invariants · dependencies · delivery red-team READ-ONLY · ISOLATED Consensus + convergence control findings are weighed across the panel, then the controller rules: CONVERGED CONTINUE STUCK MAX-ITER stuck or capped runs stop and escalate — never silently pass Automated fix cycle findings are turned into fixes — and every fix is re-audited. No change exits the cycle on the strength of the fix alone. FIX → RE-AUDIT → REPEAT EVERY VERDICT STANDS ON THE GATE FLOOR BELOW LAYER 1 · DETERMINISTIC GATE FLOOR — bound to lifecycle phases 10 gates at pre-commit 2 gates at work-order entry 11 gates at work-order exit 12 gates in the comp gauntlet 17 gates at full audit start / end gates at every session boundary Tiered blocking model — failures block by severity tier; a blocking gate cannot be talked past, only fixed. RATCHETING The baseline only moves down: the finding count can never increase between phases. Quality is a one-way ratchet, not a negotiation. checks + independent judgment · every fix re-audited · nothing ships without review VibeOS

Two layers stacked. Layer 1 is the deterministic gate floor — gates bound to lifecycle phases (10 at pre-commit, 2 at work-order entry, 11 at exit, 12 in the comp gauntlet, 17 at full audit, plus every session boundary) with a tiered blocking model. Layer 2 is the independent auditor panel feeding consensus and convergence control — CONVERGED, CONTINUE, STUCK, or MAX-ITER — driving an automated fix cycle where every fix is re-audited. Ratcheting holds the line underneath it all: the finding-count baseline only moves down.
