Independent local review · Source checked August 23, 2026
Is generated Dogwood ready for policy-owner review?
Check the source rule, deployed tool schema, unsupported controls, generated semantics, AWS geography, denial tests, external safeguards, and rollback before enforcement.
Review result
Complete the evidence review
Check a gate only when the source rule, deployed schema, AWS configuration, tests, and accountable owner support it.
A passing checklist is not production approval. Keep generated policies in observation until denial behavior, downstream controls, monitoring, and rollback are proven.
Keep authoring and enforcement separate
Policy Authoring translates supported rules into Dogwood using the supplied schema. It does not approve the source policy or decide the correct control layer.
Generated and handwritten rules need the same semantic review, versioned tests, deployment evidence, monitoring, and rollback.
Prompts and results may be processed in another Region within the same AWS geography. Verify the account's current data requirements.
Unsupported rules need an explicit destination. Omission never becomes authorization.
