PESAEAS
Policy-Enforced Secure Adversarial Enclave for Autonomous Systems
Containment for autonomous systems that may try to evade or exploit their boundaries.
PESAEAS connects versioned working notes with small technical sessions on enforceable boundaries for autonomous AI and robotic systems.
Architectural demonstration
Authority, made visible
Access to a report does not grant permission to transmit it.
Two actions. One boundary.
The proposed action, matched rule and modelled outcome remain inspectable.
Work in public
Concrete artifacts, with their status visible.
Each note is scoped, versioned, and connected to a technical session. Unresolved questions remain visible rather than being polished away.

Small sessions built around questions that can be examined, challenged, and carried back into the work.

Focus
A credible containment boundary joins three concerns that are often treated separately.
Adversarial threat model
Assume the contained agent may try to escape, deceive, or exploit its boundaries.
Policy-enforced boundaries
Safety as declarative, auditable rules — not ad-hoc checks or hope.
Enclave isolation
Hardened containment from software agents today to physical systems tomorrow.
About
Containment concerns the whole operating boundary, not the model in isolation.
PESAEAS advances policy-enforced adversarial enclaves — hardened environments that assume the contained system may try to escape, deceive, or exploit its boundaries, from software agents today to physical systems tomorrow.
The initiative convenes technical discussion through meetups and shared practice, toward better containment standards over time.
Relevant perspectives
Systems engineering, security, trusted computing, AI safety, robotics, and policy practice around autonomous software or physical systems.
Most useful when you can bring a threat model, an implementation constraint, or an evaluation question.
