event conformance is a governed mechanism for keeping autonomous execution aligned to lifecycle state, policy, and evidence from intent to ship.
Glossary
Event Conformance
Event conformance is a key concept in autonomous delivery systems. This definition page explains how verification influences implementation choices and governance posture.

Operational Consequences
- Clear definition of event conformance
- Why verification matters in practice
- Common implementation patterns
How It Is Implemented
Implementation Pattern
- Define lifecycle Stage states and Gate criteria.
- Bind agent actions to state transitions.
- Run policy checks before deploy and ship stages.
- Attach approvals and conformance events to each transition.
- Persist a replayable audit timeline for incident and compliance review.
Anti-Patterns
Common Mistakes
- Treating audit as a post-release reporting concern.
- Allowing stage transitions without explicit ownership checks.
- Using free-form agent handoffs without Gate boundaries.
Applied in AgentSync
Example Lifecycle Assertion
assert stage == "checks" before stage == "deploy" assert approvals.count >= 1 for production gate assert evidence.trace_id is present for all ship events
