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.
