AYSA Execution

Approval History

Approval history is the sequence of recorded human decisions about specific versions of proposed SEO actions, including approval, rejection, expiry or revocation.

What it means

Each decision should identify the proposal version, target, scope, authorized reviewer, time and any recorded rationale. A later material change can make an earlier approval stale even though the historical decision remains intact.

Why it matters

Decision provenance prevents a broad or old consent from being reused for a different payload and lets teams distinguish accountable review from an automated status change.

Example

An editor rejects title version three because it changes the product claim, then approves version four after reviewing the revised wording and source evidence.

Common mistakes

Do not treat authentication as consent, let a system approve its own consequential output, record only the latest decision or call spell-checking substantive human editorial review.

How AYSA handles this

Signals reviewed

decision state, reviewer identity, proposal version, decision time, scope, expiry or revocation

Problem AYSA can identify

AYSA can identify an executable item with no matching active approval or with a decision tied to an outdated proposal or target.

Recommendation prepared

The review request presents the current evidence, exact proposed value, affected object, limitations and required decision role.

Approval preview

The person sees a bounded diff and can approve, reject or leave the item undecided rather than authorizing an open-ended instruction.

Execution

A valid decision can make a supported item eligible, but AYSA records any later attempt separately instead of rewriting the decision event.

Verification

AYSA correlates the decision with subsequent attempt and result records so reviewers can see where the lifecycle stopped.

Limits

Approval history does not prove execution, correctness, informed consent outside its stated scope or compliance with the EU AI Act.

Quick answers

Frequently asked questions

Does approval history prove that AYSA executed the change?

No. It proves a recorded decision about a proposal; execution and verification require separate evidence.

Is a grammar check enough to count as human editorial review?

No. For the AI Act Article 50 editorial-control exception, Commission guidance describes a substantive review by a knowledgeable person, not a superficial formal check.
