Inside DeadBolt

Check authority before a protected action starts.

Check authority before a protected action starts.

A

The main path

B

How the parts work

The integrated executor asks for admission at its dispatch boundary. Operator controls can withdraw later admissions.

C

What to keep in mind

A future-action gate does not itself cancel an action already executing. Integration coverage matters.

This diagram explains the implementation concept. It is not live system telemetry.
