+## Trust Model & Failure Modes
+
+`consequence-gate` evaluates consequence by combining tool invocation parameters with runtime state returned from your `context_provider` callback (e.g. `account_rolling_24h_spend`, `kyc_verified`, `table_metadata`).
+
+### Critical Failure Modes & Mitigations
+
+| Failure Mode | Risk | Mitigation in Consequence-Gate |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Stale Context / Cache Lag** | Context provider returns yesterday's spend balance, potentially missing velocity breaches. | If context is unverified or confidence drops below `0.8`, the gate **always defaults to `ASK` (human escalation)**. It never grants a speculative `ALLOW`. |
+| **Missing Context Provider** | Tool is invoked without any environment or database connection. | The simulator scores confidence as `0.0` or `0.5` and raises an escalation requirement (`ASK`). |
+| **Agent Steering Thrashing** | The agent repeatedly submits non-compliant alternative calls in response to guidance. | The `SteerCircuitBreaker` enforces a hard retry cap (default: 2 retries) before terminating the loop and escalating to human review. |
+| **Replay / Network Retries** | Network timeout causes agent runtime to resubmit the identical tool call. | Idempotency tokens are deterministically keyed to the entity's natural business key, guaranteeing identical evaluation without incrementing velocity counters twice. |
