In large-scale enterprise monorepos, routine refactorings—such as aligning identity models or altering shared types—frequently trigger catastrophic cascading outages. Traditional CI/CD tooling suffers from severe blindspots: compilers (`tsc`) are partitioned per package or too slow for pre-commit gates; linters only verify lexical syntax; and unit tests pass against stale, mocked fixtures. When PR #482 renamed `User.id` to `SessionUser.sub`, tests passed green, but production billing halted at midnight with unhandled `TypeError: undefined`. Existing LLMs cannot serve as deterministic blocking gates due to latency, cost, and hallucination risks. Vectis Sentinel is an autonomous pre-merge release firewall and blast-radius intelligence platform. Sitting between GitHub Pull Requests and deployment pipelines, Vectis combines deterministic AST semantic diffing with autonomous remediation powered by IBM Bob 2.0 and IBM Granite 3.0 on watsonx.ai. Vectis maps contract mutations across a NetworkX dependency DAG, calculates a continuous asymptotic risk score (0–100), enforces PCI-DSS v4.0.1 compliance, blocks hazardous merges, and synthesizes automated compatibility shims in seconds. ### Target Users & Interaction Workflow Vectis is built for DevOps engineers, Site Reliability Engineers (SREs), Platform Architects, and software developers maintaining mission-critical microservice monorepos in regulated industries (FinTech, E-Commerce, Healthcare). Users interact with Vectis seamlessly across their existing workflow: 1. Automated CI/CD Gate: On every pull request, the Vectis GitHub Action analyzes AST contract drift in 1.2ms and posts inline risk annotations. 2. Interactive Visual Cockpit:Developers explore the 60 FPS React Flow dependency canvas, inspecting multi-hop blast paths, affected services, and PCI-DSS audit violations. 3. One-Click Auto-Heal: If a hazard blocks merge, engineers invoke IBM Bob 2.0 Agent Mode to synthesize compatibility shims directly into the PR branch. 4. Dual-Control Governance: Authorized leads inspect the change and cryptographically sign an RFC 8785 Canonical JSON Release Passport, unlocking production deployment. Creativity & Uniqueness 1. Deterministic-Generative Hybrid: Deterministic AST/DAG computation guarantees 0.0% hallucination and sub-second blocking, reserving generative AI exclusively for code synthesis. 2. Two-Tier Remediation: Delivers Layer 1 (a 14-day ephemeral ES6 Proxy membrane with 4 traps and TTL expiry guards) for immediate unblocking, paired with Layer 2 (clean AST codemod PRs) to eradicate permanent tech debt. 3. Cryptographic Release Passport: Mathematical release attestation using RFC 8785 Canonical JSON with dual-control Ed25519/HMAC-SHA256 signatures, satisfying PCI-DSS Req 10.5.1 audit permanence. 4. FastMCP Native Agent Mode: Exposes monorepo AST intelligence directly to IBM Bob 2.0 via standard Model Context Protocol tools. Vectis reduces Change Advisory Board (CAB) review cycles by 85% (from 4 hours to under 30 minutes) and eliminates up to 70% of deployment-induced Sev-1 incidents. By stopping silent contract drift before merge, Vectis transforms release management from an operational gamble into a mathematically verifiable science.
