## From README

Change gates and approval contract Purpose Prevent accidental or autonomous changes that can affect availability, safety, security, data, or developer workflows. Operation classes Class A: read-only by default Allowed without approval: List databases, branches, keyspaces, webhooks, backups, roles, traffic budgets, schema recommendations, deploy requests, and Insights data. Inspect repository code. Read schema metadata. Read non-sensitive database metadata. Produce reports and proposed change sets. Class B: state-creating proposals Allowed by default; requires approval only when the operator has demanded strict no-mutation mode: Creating a query-pattern report through an API POST, even if the result is read-only telemetry. Triggering a webhook test event. Creating temporary local branches or files. Opening PRs or issues in external tools. Creating database development branches. Applying DDL or migrations to non-production development branches.
