Operational test
Evidence appears in documentation, interface cues, or governance artifacts that reflect moral feature gating.
Use this test to validate operational readiness.
Pair this test with the minimum evidence criteria to capture both qualitative and quantitative signals.
- Evidence artifact: Artifact documenting how Moral Feature Gating is expected, enforced, or governed.
- Behavior signal: Observed behavior showing Moral Feature Gating in practice during real use or drills.
- Metric signal: Metric tracked to monitor Moral Feature Gating performance over time.
Controls that block feature launch until moral readiness criteria are met: oversight plans, contestability pathways, incident ownership, and minimum care floors. Moral feature gating treats ethical readiness as a release requirement. It prevents shipping features that are technically viable but operationally unsafe for affected people.
