ML Control Plane

COSMOS.

The control layer for data, models, runs, and deployments — with zero undefined states.

COSMOS brings order to the entire machine learning lifecycle. It coordinates datasets, training runs, model versions, deployments, and governance into a single, verifiable system designed for reliability and scale.

The Problem

Why ML systems drift.

Most ML stacks are a patchwork of notebooks, scripts, dashboards, and undocumented workflows.

Datasets change silently. Models ship without lineage. Promotions happen without verification. Teams inherit systems they cannot trace or trust.

The result is failure modes that appear "mysteriously" in production.

COSMOS eliminates this uncertainty by enforcing structure: every dataset, model, run, and deployment is an explicit, verifiable object.

What COSMOS Is

A unified control plane for the ML lifecycle.

COSMOS provides a single source of truth for:

Dashboard

System overview and health

Datasets

Synced from Paradigm, fingerprinted

Experiments

Tracked configurations and metrics

Pipelines

Training and evaluation workflows

Models

Versioned with full lineage

Deployments

What is serving where and why

Monitoring

Health, metrics, alerts

Governance

Policy gates and compliance

Advanced

Advanced configuration and tools

Settings

System configuration

Every stage is deterministic. Every transition is verified.
No undefined states. No silent failures.

Capabilities

Full lifecycle control.

GateService enforcement

  • Every mutation funnelled through signature, health, fingerprint, staleness, and contract checks
  • BLOCKED (412) or proceed. No bypass.

Hash-chained event log

  • SHA-256 append-only. DB-enforced immutability (role + trigger prevent UPDATE/DELETE)
  • Daily tamper verification.

Active reconciliation

  • 5/15/30 minute drift detection against Paradigm, S3, and K8s
  • Mismatch triggers quarantine and lock. Not alerts. Action.

Stored lineage

  • Nodes and edges in the database. Recursive CTEs.
  • Provenance as queryable data, not reconstructed from JOINs.

Four-state enforcement

  • Every object: Verified, Degraded (root cause), Blocked (policy name), or Unverified (required action)
  • Bypass is architecturally impossible.

OCI artifact signing

  • Build, sign, and attest with SLSA provenance.

Content-addressable evidence store

  • Local and S3 backends. Every execution produces one.

Versioned Paradigm contract

  • OpenAPI contract with CI-enforced tests.
  • Integration is a contract, not vibes.
Architecture

Designed as Infrastructure.

COSMOS is built as a fault-tolerant distributed system.

Frontend
├─Next.js console
├─Tauri 2 desktop app (CSP-locked, localhost-only)
├─Dashboard, Datasets, Models, Runs, Deployments
├─Monitoring, Governance, Advanced, Settings
Backend
├─10 routers, 16+ services
├─GateService (central funnel: signature, health, fingerprint, staleness, contract)
├─All mutations → GateService → BLOCKED (412) or proceed
├─Identity, Datasets (Paradigm sync), Models, Runs, Deployments
├─Policies, Compute (GPU scheduling)
Infrastructure
├─PostgreSQL (12 tables, state)
├─Redis (queue)
├─Celery (distributed workers)
├─MinIO/S3 (evidence, artifacts)
├─Prometheus (metrics)
├─Paradigm (dataset + verification instrument)

Every component is typed, versioned, observable, and testable.

Compute Integration

Built for GPU-backed training and evaluation.

COSMOS schedules and executes GPU workloads across cloud providers:

AWSRunPodVast.ai

The system expects access to modern GPU accelerators for:

training
fine-tuning
evaluation
distributed experiments

Dataset fingerprints, health checks, and signed execution evidence from Paradigm run automatically before any execution or promotion.

COSMOS is both a controller and a gatekeeper: nothing runs unless the state is correct.

Paradigm Integration

Guaranteed dataset correctness for every run.

COSMOS treats Paradigm as the authoritative source of dataset truth and execution evidence.

Before training:
  • Dataset fingerprint captured
  • Health verified
  • Drift detected early
Before promotion:
  • Fingerprint revalidated
  • Mismatch blocks deployment
  • Policies enforced explicitly

If the data changed, the system refuses to proceed.
If the dataset degrades, training and promotion are blocked.

This eliminates silent drift.

Direction

Next: ARCHON integration. Cloud deployment. We ship when it’s real.

Current Use

COSMOS is used for orchestrating training, evaluation, and cloud GPU–backed experimentation, with integrated dataset validation through Paradigm.

Status

COSMOS is fully operational.

The system is production-ready for real workloads and cloud-backed GPU execution.
