Genomics-Biosecurity Authority Pack for AI-generated genomic sequences.

When an AI-generated or AI-assisted genomic sequence moves toward synthesis, an order, or a regulated wet-lab or clinical stage, KYE Protocol governs whether it may proceed — and proves the basis. The Genomics-Biosecurity Authority Pack binds each consequential action to a recorded admissibility decision, a sequence-of-concern screen, a laboratory-grade provenance pin, a genomic-data authority basis, and named biosafety oversight — sealed at the moment it happens and verifiable offline. It is bound to the Genetic Sequencing Authority Agent.

The wedge

AI genome design meets biosecurity screening — the action boundary is where authority is decided.

AI models now generate and optimise nucleic-acid sequences at scale. The same capability that accelerates therapeutics raises a dual-use concern that regulators and synthesis providers are moving to close. Several facts converge:

  • Synthesis screening is becoming mandatory. US EO 14110 §4.4 and the IBBIS Common Mechanism / IGSC Harmonized Screening Protocol push sequence-of-concern screening to the point of order. An AI design heading toward synthesis needs a recorded screening result, not an after-the-fact log.
  • Dual-use overlap is real. Genomic designs can intersect Australia Group control lists and CWC / BWC prohibited-agent scope. The cross-check belongs at the action boundary, before the order commits.
  • Clinical genomics is regulated laboratory work. When AI assists interpretation in a CLIA / ISO 15189 laboratory, the provenance of the model, inputs, and reference data must carry laboratory-grade and GxP-grade data integrity — verifiable, not asserted.
  • Genomic data is special-category personal data. GDPR Article 9 (genetic and health data) and PHIPA Ontario custodianship govern its use. The authority basis must bind to the consequential action, not sit in a separate consent ledger.
Why a lab or platform buys this

Recorded authority on every consequential action — derivable from public keys alone.

  • Admissibility at the moment, not after. Each sequence heading toward synthesis, order, or a regulated stage carries a recorded admissibility decision binding the Genetic Sequencing Authority Agent, the design artefact, the intended action, and the authority under which it proceeds.
  • Sequence-of-concern screening native. A recorded screen (IBBIS Common Mechanism / IGSC protocol) cross-checked against Australia Group and CWC / BWC scope. A flagged or unscreened sequence is refused and routed dual-channel.
  • Laboratory-grade provenance pin. A signed, replay-derivable provenance record binds the generating model and version, the inputs and pinned reference data, the screening result, and the admissibility outcome — CLIA / ISO 15189 and GxP-grade, verifiable offline.
  • Genomic-data authority bound to the action. GDPR Article 9 special-category basis and PHIPA Ontario custodian basis recorded against each use of identifiable genomic data, at the action boundary.
  • Named human oversight. An AI design stays advisory until an institutional biosafety committee, a CLIA / ISO 15189 laboratory director, or a designated responsible person records sign-off. The accountability is personal and named, and does not transfer to the AI.
How productisation works

A governed pipeline — from AI sequence to oversight-signed action.

Every consequential action flows through the same governed steps. The pipeline is bound to canonical KYE Protocol envelopes — no parallel surfaces, no bespoke shapes per lab.

  1. 1 — AI sequence proposed. A model generates or optimises a nucleic-acid sequence that the lab intends to move toward synthesis, an order, or a regulated stage.
  2. 2 — KYE admissibility check. The Action Admissibility Gate verifies the recorded admissibility decision via the Genetic Sequencing Authority Agent. No decision = no action.
  3. 3 — Sequence-of-concern screen. The recorded screen (IBBIS / IGSC) plus Australia Group and CWC / BWC cross-checks. A flag refuses the action and routes dual-channel.
  4. 4 — Provenance pin emitted. The runtime emits kye.evidence.tool_call.v1 + kye.replay.context_seal.v1 + kye.evidence.pack.v1 binding model, inputs, reference data, and screening result.
  5. 5 — Genomic-data authority recorded. The GDPR Article 9 / PHIPA Ontario authority basis for any identifiable genomic data is bound to the action envelope.
  6. 6 — Oversight sign-off. A named biosafety committee, laboratory director, or responsible person records sign-off. Unreviewed AI-driven actions are refused.
  7. 7 — Evidence sealed. The signed Evidence Pack is sealed and made replay-derivable from published JWKS, available to the lab, the oversight body, and a regulator on demand.
  8. 8 — Register surfaced. The consequential-action register surfaces in the compliance and oversight view, reviewed and co-signed on the Pack’s attestation cadence.
Framework binding

Bound to the canonical genomics-biosecurity regulatory perimeter.

The Pack binds the canonical KYE artefact set — the bio-chem-governance sector pack, rule pack, and dictionary — to the genomics-biosecurity regulatory perimeter. Every claim resolves to a control row on a deep-mapped framework.

Full coverage means every requirement in the control area is bound to a canonical KYE rule, dictionary term, or evidence-pack contract. Partial coverage means the bound surface satisfies the control area when paired with the deploying lab’s own attestation envelope.

Honest scope

KYE Protocol governs whether a sequence may proceed — and proves it.

KYE Protocol governs WHETHER an AI-generated genomic sequence may proceed to a consequential action and PROVES the basis. KYE Protocol does not design sequences, fold proteins, run the screening pipeline, interpret clinical genomic results, or judge the scientific validity of a design. The screening science stays with the lab and the established screening providers; KYE Protocol binds the authority decision and the evidence around it.
