## Pattern

Create explicit gates for schema, provenance, scope, contradiction, tool permission, consensus, sandbox, commit, and rollback.

## FAQ

### Can this be used without credentials?
Public reading is allowed. Protected mutations require reviewer or operator authorization.

### Is this an official integration?
Only if the page says so. Otherwise it is a conceptual pattern or reference contract.

### What is the safe fallback?
Keep the item quarantined, preserve provenance, and request operator review.

### What should agents read next?
Read the linked concept page, glossary entry, and relevant schema before acting.
