The 20 Operational Principles of IYABOKO.

A proprietary evidence and readiness methodology used by IYABOKO Sentinel to turn complex projects into operational questions, evidence requirements, critical floors, corrective strategies and proportionate decisions.

The public business page uses “Operational Principles.” Scientific publications may discuss proposed laws separately. The methodology is decision support—not certification, regulatory approval or permission to implement high-risk work.

20 stable PrinciplesNames and numbering remain consistent across Sentinel assessments.
Five operating layersFoundation, operation, flow, control and detection/context.
Six critical floorsWeakness can prevent progression even when other results are stronger.
Six sector profilesPriority, evidence and specialist requirements change by domain.
Methodology and software are separate

Understand the Principles here, then apply them in Sentinel.

This page explains the methodology. The dedicated Sentinel Examiner page performs the interactive assessment, creates the indicative decision and allows logged-in users to save reports.

Method structure

Each Principle connects a question to evidence and action.

The purpose is not to reward confident language. It is to identify what must be demonstrated, corrected, governed or escalated before the intended next stage.

01

Clarify the question

Translate a broad challenge into an operational question that can be answered and reviewed.

02

Identify evidence

Specify records, measurements, authority, data and review needed to support the answer.

03

Find the weakness

Expose missing proof, uncertainty, boundary failures, weak controls and unresolved dependencies.

04

Define correction

Assign a proportionate evidence task, safeguard, owner, review date or escalation route.

Minimum evidence

Fallback options, redundancy, recovery routes, dependencies and decision rules.

Corrective direction

Create alternative pathways with clear switch, recovery and review criteria.

Evidence position

A readiness score is limited by the evidence supporting it.

The Examiner records evidence quality and confidence alongside readiness. A confident claim without supporting records should not be treated as validated readiness.

0No evidence
1Claim only
2Preliminary
3Documented
4Internally tested
5Independent review
Interpretation rule: a high numerical result does not establish certification, legal compliance, engineering approval, clinical validity, cybersecurity assurance, financial suitability or regulatory permission.
Universal critical floors

Six Principles create a minimum responsibility floor.

Weakness in these areas can prevent progression even where other evidence and readiness scores are stronger.

11 · Daki — Threshold

Measurable escalation and intervention points.

12 · Bede — Boundary

Safety, legal, ethical, technical and scope limits.

14 · Akiyakiya — Lawful Pathway

Authority, approvals and legitimate review routes.

15 · Gakii — Measurement

Reproducible metrics, confidence and missing-data controls.

18 · DouPeka — Anomaly Detection

Hidden patterns, validation and false-positive controls.

19 · Umikapo — Domain Context

Sector, location, affected groups and applicable standards.

Sector application

The same Principle can require different evidence in different sectors.

Sentinel Sector Review changes priority, mandatory stop conditions, professional boundaries and specialist-review requirements for each domain.

Space

Space OS

Mission assumptions, telemetry, simulation limits, aerospace safety and qualified engineering review.

Energy

Energy OS

Loads, storage, installer boundaries, resilience, electrical safety and evidence of performance.

Environment

Environment OS

Local context, affected communities, biodiversity, water, land and environmental evidence.

Health

Health & Biotech OS

Non-clinical scope, ethics, privacy, evidence quality and qualified clinical or laboratory authority.

Networks

Quantum Net OS

Threat models, secure architecture, verification, telecom boundaries and cybersecurity review.

Trust

Financial Security OS

Identity, auditability, transaction controls, financial boundaries and lawful governance.

Responsible progression

The assessment supports a proportionate decision.

The purpose is not to produce a decorative score. It is to decide whether the intended next stage is justified and what safeguards or corrections are required.

ProceedEvidence and critical floors support the next controlled stage.
Proceed with ConditionsProgress only with named safeguards, evidence tasks and review actions.
ReviseCorrect evidence, measurement, governance or design gaps before progression.
PauseDo not progress until material uncertainty or a critical weakness is resolved.
Stop & EscalateA boundary or critical-floor failure requires qualified human authority.
Public methodology boundary: The 20 Operational Principles are proprietary IYABOKO decision-support and learning principles. They are not legislation, regulatory standards, universal scientific laws, certification criteria or replacements for established professional methods. Their value must be tested through documented use, review, comparison, revision and independent evaluation.

Understand the method, apply it in Sentinel and retain the evidence trail.

Use this page for methodology review. Use the dedicated Examiner for interactive assessment and request human review when the decision carries material risk.
