Governed request flow

Platform layer placement

Reference chat and embed widgets are optional interaction surfaces — not the platform boundary. Link is a governed subsystem of the control plane: enterprise data execution is mediated and audited through Alexiom AI, not routed around it.

High-level request flow

Through the control plane, each request follows an explicit path:

Every step is explicit and inspectable. Link runs inside the control plane when policy permits — governed, read-only enterprise data execution, not a downstream integration after orchestration.

Core vs Anima

Core enforces governance, orchestration, and deterministic execution. It never stores long-term adaptive memory or bypasses policy.

Anima is an optional overlay for contextual shaping under phase gates. Intelligence remains inspectable and cannot override Core decisions.

Link — governed data execution

Link is deterministic enterprise data execution infrastructure inside the Alexiom AI control plane. Enterprise systems are reached through governed adapters — audited, allow-listed, and policy-bound.

• Subsystem of the control plane, not an external datasource
• Read-only access to enterprise systems
• Allow-listed queries only — no dynamic SQL
• Deterministic, normalized outputs with full audit trail

Agent lifecycle

Agents move through draft, candidate, and live states with immutable live versions, rollback support, and lifecycle logging for compliance and forensic review.

Data stores

PostgreSQL for transactional state, MongoDB for activity and expansion logs, Weaviate for vector retrieval — each chosen for a specific governance or search role.
