MISSION CONTROL

Mission Engine

Turn recruitment intelligence into prioritised, governed and measurable missions.

ENGINE INTEGRATION

The Mission Engine is now consuming intelligence output

Mapped missions inherit their rule provenance, finding, affected population, confidence, priority and recommended state from the deterministic intelligence engine. Human-governed mission metadata remains controlled by the mission foundation.

MULTI-RULE INTELLIGENCE ENGINE

Taleforth can now evaluate a portfolio of mission rules in parallel

V0.12 separates the reusable multi-rule engine from the individual Rulebook mappings. Only approved mappings can become executable intelligence.

RULEBOOK ACTIVATION · MI-031 → MI-060

The executable engine now has an authoritative Rulebook activation layer

Every Rulebook ID is reserved in the engine. A rule only becomes executable when its exact approved definition, conditions and mission mapping are present.

29 definitions remain deliberately locked.They will activate only when the original approved Rulebook definitions are supplied. No title, trigger, threshold, evidence rule or mission mapping will be invented.
RULEBOOK COVERAGE & GOVERNANCE

Every MI rule now has an explicit governance state

Taleforth can distinguish between rules that exist, rules that are executable, rules that were evaluated, rules that triggered, and rules that produced missions, outcomes and learning.

RULEBOOK EXPANSION I · ACTIVATION HARNESS

New MI rules must prove they are safe and executable before activation

V0.15 adds a repeatable activation process: approved definition, signals, deterministic conditions, finding evidence, mission mapping, tests and governance.

RULE TEST HARNESS

A rule must prove both trigger and no-trigger behaviour

MI-031 is the reference contract for every future deterministic rule.

triggerpass

Material completion constraint triggers

All three MI-031 deterministic conditions are satisfied.
clearpass

Healthy completion trajectory stays clear

MI-031 should not produce a finding when the constraint conditions are absent.
Activation is fail-closed.If any required gate is missing, the rule remains non-executable and cannot generate a finding or mission candidate.
RULEBOOK ARCHITECTURE · CENTRAL REGISTRY

The Rulebook is now a reusable system object, not scattered rule code

Every MI rule now conforms to one registry contract covering lifecycle, version, signals, deterministic conditions, evidence, mission mapping, tests and governance.

VERSIONING MODEL

Rule changes create a new governed version

MI-031 v1.0→Learning / review→Human approval→MI-031 v1.1

The existing version remains auditable. A new version supersedes it only after approval; historical findings retain their original rule version.

The engine now consumes the registry.Future approved MI rules can be added as registry definitions instead of requiring bespoke engine wiring.
RECRUITMENT DATA MODEL & SOURCE ARCHITECTURE · V0.22

Institutional recruitment data now enters Taleforth through a canonical data layer

Source systems no longer feed intelligence directly. Taleforth maps external data into canonical recruitment objects, records ingestion lineage, then produces governed recruitment signals.

RECRUITMENT JOURNEY STATE ENGINE · V0.23

Taleforth now understands where applicants are, how long they have been there, and where movement is slowing

Canonical applicant records are converted into governed journey states and transitions. Time-in-stage and stage conversion now become reusable intelligence inputs.

RECRUITMENT TARGET & PACE ENGINE · V0.24

Taleforth now knows where recruitment should be, not only where it is

Targets, expected position by date, actual pace and projected starts are now governed system objects. Pace variance can become reusable intelligence evidence.

Fail-closed activation:Taleforth may prepare an activation contract, but only an explicit authorised approval can move a mission into Active. Deferred, rejected or incomplete contracts remain non-executable.
MISSION EXECUTION & OUTCOME CAPTURE ENGINE · V0.29

Activated missions now become controlled operational work with measurable execution evidence

Taleforth groups approved work into governed action batches, records execution state, captures delivery and response evidence, and produces measurable mission outcomes for the learning loop.

ACTION BATCHES

Execution is grouped, owned and governed

Each active mission produces an operational batch with a defined channel, owner, population and execution state.

LEARNING LOOP INTEGRATION ENGINE · V0.30

Mission outcomes now become structured learning without silently changing the Rulebook

Taleforth converts execution evidence into observations, confidence, evidence strength and human-review recommendations that can inform future missions.

LEARNING RECOMMENDATIONS

What should Taleforth suggest for future human consideration?

Recommendations can propose repeat, refine, test, monitor or retire — but cannot automatically change future behaviour.

testmedium confidence

Collect another comparable evidence window before wider reuse

7 downstream completions were observed. Observed conversion is 29%. Learning confidence is medium with strong evidence.

No automatic rule impact · human review required
refinemedium confidence

Review the gap between engagement and downstream completion

7 observed responders have not yet completed downstream. Future intervention design may benefit from more specific blocker resolution after engagement.

RECRUITMENT SIGNAL SYSTEM · V0.21

Taleforth now governs the data signals before rules consume them

Recruitment data is converted into typed, quality-checked and freshness-aware signals. Derived metrics are calculated centrally so every MI rule uses the same definitions.

Bad signals fail closed.A blocked signal cannot silently feed deterministic rule evaluation. Freshness and quality are part of the intelligence contract.
RULEBOOK INTELLIGENCE SYSTEM · V0.20

Taleforth now arbitrates intelligence before it becomes a mission

Findings can generate competing mission candidates. The arbitration layer decides what is promoted, watched, suppressed or blocked before Mission Control renders it.

INTELLIGENCE FOUNDATION · DETERMINISTIC DEMO

MI-031 is now being evaluated from underlying signals

The visible MIS-001 mission is no longer just a card concept. V0.10 introduces the first executable path from structured recruitment signals to an evidence-backed mission candidate.

Application completion is limiting the forecast

A large recoverable incomplete population exists while completion conversion remains below the required trajectory.
