ARCHIPELO PLATFORM

The Unified Platform Built on Salmon — Providing Execution Provenance with Enterprise Security and Governance

Archipelo establishes a deterministic record of how software is produced across human developers, AI copilots, and agents — with security findings, policy, and governance controls built on Salmon, the execution provenance protocol.

How the Platform Works

Software is no longer produced by a single developer. It is created through ordered sequences of actions spanning humans, AI copilots, autonomous agents, and CI/CD pipelines — that together produce a single outcome.

Archipelo, powered by Salmon, records this activity into a deterministic execution record as development happens.

It answers four questions: 1) what was the sequence of actions that occurred, 2) how was the outcome produced and through which path, 3) which specific developer, copilot, pipeline, or agent was responsible, and 4) what does the record mean for security, policy, and governance.

Archipelo assembles this record automatically and surfaces it for engineering and security teams.

The Execution Provenance Protocol

Salmon establishes a deterministic execution chain across every step of software production — a canonical record from which responsibility is derived, not reconstructed from logs or telemetry.

A New Infrastructure Layer in the Software Stack

Archipelo defines a new system layer — Execution Provenance and Attribution — that sits between execution systems and security/governance tooling.

Developer Security Posture Management (DevSPM) is the security, policy, and governance layer for multi-actor software production. Powered by Salmon, the execution provenance protocol, DevSPM links developer identity and actions to software security risks — providing deterministic attribution across human developers, AI copilots, and agents.

5 Layers of Software Production — Infrastructure, DevSPM (Security, Policy, Governance), Salmon (Execution Provenance Layer), Execution Systems, Human Developers and AI Copilots and Agents

Enabling Autonomous Software
Production at Scale

The system starts at the individual developer level — and expands into a full control layer covering teams and the entire organization.

  1. OSS (Salmon)
    Local Execution · Individual Causality
    A developer runs Salmon locally and uses it for debugging agentic workflows.
  2. Team
    Shared Execution · Cross-Actor Causality
    Multi-actor causality covering teams, agents, multiple repos and environments.
  3. Enterprise (DevSPM)
    Governed Execution · Policy + Control
    The Archipelo platform provides enterprises with the security & governance controls — enforcing rules across human developers, AI copilots, and agents.
