Risks & Mitigations

Workspace becomes project management SaaS
Mitigation

Stay review-centered; defer multi-tenant, auth and ticketing.

Query Result becomes ChatGPT clone
Mitigation

Surface evidence, decisions, writeback and agent handoff — not just answer text.

Candidate approval becomes too automatic
Mitigation

Keep candidate_only writeback policy; require explicit human review for every candidate.

Internal architecture leaks into public UI
Mitigation

Use product-facing labels only; never expose vault folder names or paths.

Knowledge Map AI becomes mistaken as source of truth
Mitigation

Frame it as the visualization layer only; keep source of truth in Semantic OS.
