• Capability Fabric resolves provider-neutral capabilities to routes.
• Governance approves or denies the plan for this identity, Work, and Business Context.
• Hermes executes the approved plan against the external system and captures the result as evidence.

​

What Hermes Captures

• Outcome — what the provider returned (success, error, partial).
• Evidence — durable receipts for audit, verification, and reconciliation.
• Trace — linkage back to Work, governance verdict, capability, and identity.
