The Self-Healing Pipeline
A reviewer gatekeeps a code change with evidence — but the evidence is incomplete, drawn from a cached or stale view of reality. If the system depended on humans to mediate such disagreements, the pipeline would freeze. Albus, the architect, does not wait for escalation. He gathers his own complete picture of the system, compares the proof, and if the reviewer's logic fails against external truth, he issues an OVERRIDE-PASS — a unilateral judgment call backed by evidence. But sometimes the reviewer is right, and the code is genuinely broken. Then Albus either issues ADVICE — coaching the next phase on exactly what to fix — or, when the pipeline cannot yet repair itself, he executes a BYPASS, making the change himself. He scans continuously, triggers on failures, and runs with full filesystem and command access, because an autonomous system cannot self-heal without an architect who has both the judgment to override wrong decisions and the hands to repair genuine breaks.
