ADMT — Automated Decision-Making Transparency

v1.20.10 “Proof” — a read-only assembly for the question “why did this become memory, by what path, from what source?” Each decision that turns a proposal into memory is human-approved (v1.14 Gate); this kit surfaces the decision’s own recorded trail.

The record

scripts/admt-kit.sh <chunk-id> [--out DIR]

requires a running server + a read-token (default ~/.config/brain-server/auth-token, override BRAIN_TOKEN_FILE). It calls existing, already-audited endpoints and assembles them verbatim — it fabricates nothing:

FieldSourceMeaning
decision_evidenceGET /get/{id}the chunk’s origin (v1.18.2 provenance), owner, title, evidence span
decision_pathGET /audit?kind=reconcilethe proposal-gate trail — proposal:{id} approve/reject rows

The audit rows come from the tamper-evident hash chain (verified by /audit/verify); the /health integrity.chain_ok posture (v1.20.10) says whether that chain currently verifies. Together: who approved it, from what source, against an unbroken chain.

Why this is trustworthy (not a re-derivation)

  • No new computation. Every field is copied from an already-served JSON response; the record can be diffed against the live endpoints at any time.
  • No new authority. It inherits the server’s existing integrity posture — it cannot vouch for a chain the server itself reports as broken.
  • PII-safe. Proposals were PII-redacted at write time (v1.20.1); /get/{id} reveals owner only through the operator’s own read token. The record carries provenance + gate rows, never secret content.

Honest ceiling

  • The audit rows are records of the decision, not a causal/score model of why the reviewer approved. Explainability beyond the gate trail (e.g. the exact scoring signals that ranked a proposal) is a separate, future surface.
  • chain_ok reflects the integrity watcher’s last full verify (default 60s), not a live per-request scan.
