Evidence-Native Postgres Control Planes

This working paper defines a Postgres control-plane architecture where recommendations, approvals, mutations, rollbacks, and buyer exports are bound to explicit evidence artifacts.

Summary

QueryRook should not merely say what it wants to do. It should show the proof, preserve the proof, and make missing proof visible before any production-facing action.

Claims

QR-CLAIM-2026-001

Evidence-native control plane

Every production-facing recommendation should be backed by inspectable evidence before it can become an operator action.

Methods

  • Map every agent action to required proof obligations.
  • Inject missing proof states and measure whether QueryRook blocks unsafe promotion.
  • Compare evidence-native workflows against conventional observability-plus-manual-DBA review.

Metrics

Evidence completeness rate
Time from slow-query detection to reviewable action
Proof packet verification success
Operator time-to-confidence

Limitations

  • Architecture evidence does not replace live customer-environment benchmarks.
  • Operator time-to-confidence requires human study data before publication-grade conclusions.

Reproducibility

Current status: Planned bundle. Reports generated by ResearchOps include commit hashes, run IDs, artifact paths, required disclosures, and a SHA-256 integrity hash.
