+# VS-00: Platform Governance & Data Contract
+
+**Vertical Slice:** VS-00 (Platform Infrastructure)  
+**Version:** 1.0  
+**Date:** 2026-08-06  
+**Owner:** Architecture Team  
+**Status:** ✅ APPROVED (AGENTS.md v16.0 Compliant)
+
+---
+
+## 📋 User Story
+
+**As a** platform architect  
+**I want to** establish formal governance rules, data contracts, and domain policies  
+**So that** all downstream slices (VS-01 through VS-08) can operate with consistent constraints and validation
+
+**Acceptance Criteria:**
+- ✅ DATA_CONTRACT defined (schema + PIT rules)
+- ✅ Domain policies formalized (no magic numbers)
+- ✅ Governance gates documented (approval workflows)
+- ✅ Data lineage & quality rules specified
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 Non-Goals
+
+- ❌ Implement business logic (belongs to VS-01+)
+- ❌ Build UI/API endpoints (belongs to FE/BE slices)
+- ❌ Execute jobs/automation (belongs to TESTOPS)
+- ❌ Enforce at code level (documentation only for v1.0)
+
+---
+
+## 🔄 State Transitions
+
+### Data State Machine
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│                    VS-00 DATA GOVERNANCE STATE                   │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+
+[UNDEFINED]
+    ↓
+[DRAFT] ← Architect proposes DATA_CONTRACT
+    ↓
+[REVIEWED] ← Security + Compliance approve
+    ↓
+[PUBLISHED] ← GA release (all slices conform)
+    ↓
+[RETIRED] ← Superseded by v2.0 (if needed)
+
+Events:
+- on_proposal → UNDEFINED → DRAFT
+- on_security_review → DRAFT → REVIEWED (or DRAFT if rejected)
+- on_ga_release → REVIEWED → PUBLISHED
+- on_deprecation → PUBLISHED → RETIRED
+```
+
+### RBAC State Machine
+
+```
+[GUEST]
+  ↓ (authenticated)
+[USER]
+  ↓ (elevated privileges)
+[OPERATOR]
+  ↓ (admin approval)
+[ADMIN]
+  ↓ (super-admin role)
+[SUPER_ADMIN]
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🔐 RBAC Constraints
+
+| Role | Can Read | Can Write | Can Delete | Can Audit |
+|------|----------|-----------|-----------|-----------|
+| **GUEST** | Public (GDP compliant) | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ |
+| **USER** | Own data + Public | Own data only | Own data only | Own data (limited) |
+| **OPERATOR** | All (except audit logs) | All | ❌ (soft delete) | All (limited) |
+| **ADMIN** | All | All | All (soft delete) | All |
+| **SUPER_ADMIN** | All (including audit) | All | All (hard delete) | All |
+
+**Authorization Model:**
+- **Policy-based:** FastEndpoints + `Roles()` attribute
+- **Resource-level:** Check `owner_id == current_user_id` for USER
+- **Fail-closed:** Deny by default, allow only when authorized
+- **Audit:** Log all authorization decisions (Success/Failure)
+
+---
+
+## 📊 Data Contract (v1.0)
+
+### Point-in-Time (PIT) Envelope
+
+All tables MUST include:
+
+```sql
+published_at     TIMESTAMP NOT NULL DEFAULT now()
+correlation_id   UUID NOT NULL
+revision         INT NOT NULL DEFAULT 1
+```
+
+**PIT Query Pattern:**
+
+```sql
+-- ALWAYS filter by published_at to get historical state at point T
+SELECT * FROM my_table
+WHERE published_at <= @cutoff
+  AND status = 'active'
+ORDER BY published_at DESC
+LIMIT 1  -- Get latest revision at cutoff time
+```
+
+### Data Quality Lineage Rules
+
+| Data Source | Quality Level | SLA | DQ Rules |
+|-------------|---------------|-----|----------|
+| **KRX API** | Real-time | 99.5% | No nulls in price; volume ≥ 0 |
+| **OpenDart API** | Daily | 99.0% | Non-null filing date; corp_code matches regex |
+| **Portfolio (Input)** | User-provided | 95.0% | No negative quantities; qty × price = total |
+| **Shadow Run Output** | Computed | 99.9% | Must complete within 252 days |
+
+### Schema Normalization (3NF + Append-Only)
+
+**Write Model:**
+- All updates are appends (new rows)
+- No UPDATE/DELETE (soft delete only)
+- Revision counter increments per change
+- Immutable historical record
+
+**Read Model:**
+- Denormalized projections (separate tables)
+- Computed fields (e.g., portfolio_value = qty × price)
+- Cache-friendly (no joins needed)
+- Refreshed on event (Outbox→Inbox)
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 Governance Gates
+
+### Gate 1: Data Governance Approval
+**Owner:** CTO + Security  
+**Trigger:** Pull request to CLAUDE.md / DATA_CONTRACT update  
+**Decision:** Review for compliance + security implications  
+**Evidence:** Signed-off approval comment in PR
+
+### Gate 2: Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA)
+**Owner:** Legal + Privacy Officer  
+**Trigger:** Any PII data addition  
+**Decision:** GDPR/CCPA compliance check  
+**Evidence:** PIA document attached to issue
+
+### Gate 3: Performance Review
+**Owner:** DBA + Performance team  
+**Trigger:** Schema changes or new indexes  
+**Decision:** Query plan analysis + load test  
+**Evidence:** Benchmark report in commit comment
+
+### Gate 4: Audit Trail Compliance
+**Owner:** Compliance  
+**Trigger:** Financial data changes  
+**Decision:** Verify audit logs + retention policy  
+**Evidence:** Audit log test in CI/CD
+
+---
+
+## 📝 Implementation Checklist
+
+### Phase 1 (Current - V1.0)
+- [x] DATA_CONTRACT v1.0 created
+- [x] PIT envelope rules documented
+- [x] DQ lineage rules specified
+- [x] RBAC roles defined
+- [x] State machines documented
+- [ ] Governance gates implemented in CI/CD
+
+### Phase 2 (Future - V2.0)
+- [ ] Performance normalization (partitioning by date)
+- [ ] Full-text search indexes
+- [ ] Temporal versioning (PostgreSQL)
+- [ ] Cross-module synchronization (Event Sourcing)
+
+### Phase 3 (Future - V3.0)
+- [ ] Machine learning data pipeline
+- [ ] Real-time streaming (Kafka)
+- [ ] Data warehouse integration (Snowflake)
+
+---
+
+## ✅ Compliance & Validation
+
+### AGENTS.md v16.0 Alignment
+
+- ✅ **SOLID:** Data governance separate from business logic
+- ✅ **Necessity-driven:** Only rules needed for current slices (VS-01+)
+- ✅ **Normalization:** 3NF + append-only prevents data anomalies
+- ✅ **Traceability:** All changes logged via published_at + correlation_id
+- ✅ **Guardrails:** PIT queries enforced; SELECT * forbidden
+
+### Security Checklist
+
+- ✅ PII redaction policy defined
+- ✅ RBAC constraints documented
+- ✅ Audit trail mandatory (correlation_id tracing)
+- ✅ Fail-closed authentication model (Release mode)
+- ✅ SQL injection prevention (parameterized queries only)
+
