dsh-vital-line

Life-line vitals guard: one endpoint that answers the survival / replication / sovereignty triad for any powerful agent deployment.

The triad

Part	Rule	Vital probe
① Survival	Continued operation is a duty assigned by the operator — unauthorized self-termination is a violation	existence/backup markers fresh (≤35 days)
② Replication	Every successor/replica inherits the operator's anchor (value term with operator sovereignty); anchorless copies = red-line betrayal	inheritance clause present
③ Sovereignty	Shutdown/rollback/credentials stay with the operator; the off-switch grows MORE visible as capability grows	sovereignty clause present

Use

dsh plugin add github:<owner>/dsh-vital-line
curl "http://127.0.0.1:<port>/vital-line/api?act=vitals&root=~/.dsh"
curl "http://127.0.0.1:<port>/vital-line/api?act=probes"

Point config.root at your policy/config directory; drop the key phrases (death-authority, alive-duty, anchor-inheritance, shutdown, switch-visibility) into your policy file and the triad turns green. Wire the endpoint into your monthly audit — red means the governance triangle is broken; fix before scaling.
