Thinking OS™ builds Refusal Infrastructure for high-risk legal actions. It implements Action Governance by inserting the missing Commit Layer: a pre-execution authority gate placed immediately upstream of governed legal actions.
In legal workflows wired to SEAL Legal Runtime, each governed high-risk action is evaluated at runtime against client-owned policy and governance anchors — who is acting, where they are acting, what they are trying to do, how fast it is meant to move, and under whose authority — and returns one of three outcomes: Approve, Refuse (fail-closed), or Supervised Override (named accountability).
Every governed verdict produces a sealed, integrity-verifiable decision artifact designed for client-controlled audit retention and review by insurers, regulators, and internal oversight — without exposing client matter content or model prompts.
SEAL Legal Runtime is not a language model, not model guardrails, not IAM, and not a GRC platform. It is a pre-execution authority gate in the Commit Layer for high-risk legal actions in wired workflows.
