What is Govern?

Govern adds a decision gate to CI/CD and agent workflows: before a deploy, migration, infrastructure change or agent action runs, it issues one Decionis verdict with a signed Decision Dossier. Works with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI and Jenkins, in shadow or enforce mode, with no local policy engine.

Pros

  • Signed decision dossiers for audits
  • Shadow or enforce modes
  • Works with major CI systems

Cons

  • Requires Decionis integration
  • Aimed at engineering teams

Who should use Govern

Teams that want a verifiable approve/block verdict before risky deploys or agent actions.

Who may not need it

Solo makers with simple, low-risk workflows.
