HOW WARDEN WORKS / METHOD

03 / METHOD / HOW WARDEN WORKS

THE SIGNALS ARE ALREADY THERE.

Once installed, Warden records the health signals macOS already exposes and learns how this Mac normally behaves. It does not assume that one fixed threshold fits every machine.

01 / 06 / FROM SIGNAL TO RESULT

FROM A SIGNAL TO A VERIFIED RESULT.

01

OBSERVE

Read the health signals, events, and changes macOS already exposes.

02

COMPARE

Measure the condition against what Warden has learned is normal for this Mac.

03

DIAGNOSE

Gather enough evidence to explain the likely cause instead of reacting to one noisy reading.

04

CHECK PERMISSION

Apply the hard guardrails and decide whether Warden may act, must ask, or must refuse.

05

ACT OR REFUSE

Use a known repair tied to the diagnosed condition, ask first, or leave the machine unchanged.

06

VERIFY & RECORD

Measure the same signal again, record the result, and retain recovery information when anything moved.

EIGHT PARTS. ONE VISIBLE CHAIN OF RESPONSIBILITY.

Each stage has one job. Warden cannot skip evidence, permission, or verification.
