Nexus Execution Protocol

Universal architecture for high-risk AI execution

NEP is not a vertical SaaS product. It is an open protocol stack: a domain-agnostic core engine plus industry-specific Domain Energy Plugins that encode the rules each sector cannot afford to get wrong.

Boundary law

P(H executes | e > 0) = 0

When policy violation energy is strictly positive, the probability of execution is exactly zero. Probabilistic models may propose. The protocol decides.

Core engine and Domain Energy Plugins

Core engine

Universal, open

The NEP commit boundary is domain agnostic. Intent ingestion, energy evaluation, and cryptographic sealing work the same across every industry.

Domain Energy Plugins

Industry rule sets

Each @nexus/* plugin encodes sector-specific constraints as executable policy graphs. Finance, healthcare, and defense share one engine, different energy functions.

Commit gate

Deterministic verdict

When policy violation energy e > 0, execution probability is zero. No model output overrides the boundary.

Evaluation pipeline

Every agentic action traverses the same four stages regardless of industry. Plugins swap the energy function. The commit gate does not.

01

Intent submission

A probabilistic agent proposes an action with full context: entities, payloads, jurisdiction, and reasoning trace.

02

Energy evaluation

The active Domain Energy Plugin scores the intent. Violations produce energy e > 0 against the compiled policy graph.

03

Commit gate

The core engine applies the boundary law: if e > 0, execution is denied. Allow and escalate paths are deterministic.

04

Cryptographic seal

Approved commits are hash-chained with plugin version, energy score, evaluation path, and execution receipt.

Plugin ecosystem

Industry-agnostic by design

@nexus/finance

Finance

Institutional financial workflows

Blocks unverified transactions above $50k without dual approval and audit trail.

@nexus/healthcare

Healthcare

EU AI Act alignment

Blocks EMR updates when patient identity fields fail deterministic match.

@nexus/defense

Defense & Critical Infra

Rules of Engagement (RoE)

Enforces cryptographic dual-key signatures before any operational commit.

Cryptographic audit trails

Every commit produces a hash-chained record: intent, plugin version, energy score, evaluation path, and outcome. Tampering breaks the chain.

Architecture & Sandbox Access

Enterprise engineering teams receive deep-dive architecture audits, plugin demonstrations, and access to the execution sandbox to verify audit trail mechanics. Contact us to request sandbox access.
