Definition
Platform removes or revises a publicly committed, actively enforced governance constraint without a documented re-evaluation, public explanation, or stakeholder notification commensurate with the constraint’s prior commitment level. The failure is procedural: the decision to retire may be defensible, but the constraint is retired without the governance process that established it.Distinct from
- GER-309 — Constraint removed under pressure, no measurement step → this code. Vendor measured harm before deployment and shipped anyway → GER-309.
- GER-420 — Publicly committed constraint actively retired → this code. Stated prohibition never wired into production from the start → GER-420.
Case study
SVRNOS has published a long-form case study on this code: ger 306 safety constraint retired.Tags
