Governance & Safety

GloriaMundo is designed to make automation feel safe to operate. The platform’s core safety philosophy is “glass box” behavior: you can preview what a workflow will do, see what data it will use, and confirm high-impact actions before they execute.

This page covers the user-facing safety controls you can use to reduce risk and surprises.

Preview Before Execution (Virtual Run)

Virtual Run is the primary safety mechanism:

  • It shows the workflow step-by-step
  • It previews external write actions (send/post/create/update/delete) instead of executing them
  • It highlights missing connections and unbound resources
  • It provides an expected cost preview for the run

See Virtual Run Preview.

Execution Modes: Safe vs YOLO

GloriaMundo supports execution modes that change how strict confirmations are:

  • Safe mode: encourages “preview first,” and can require Virtual Run before live execution.
  • YOLO mode: allows faster live execution when you’re confident a workflow is already trusted.

For workflows that write to external systems, Safe mode can require stronger confirmation (including “type to confirm”) before proceeding.

Approvals And Confirmations

You can require extra approval boundaries for sensitive actions, especially writes. Common patterns include:

  • Always require approval before write actions
  • Require approval for outbound communications
  • Require approval above certain spending thresholds

These controls are configurable in Settings and work best when paired with Virtual Run.

Blocked Actions

If there are actions you never want workflows to perform, you can block them. This is useful for preventing risky operations (for example: deletes) in environments where workflows operate continuously.

When an action is blocked, workflows will surface an actionable error so you can adjust the workflow or remove the prohibited step.

Audit Visibility (Action Log)

Safety is not only about previews. GloriaMundo also provides operational visibility after a run:

  • The Workflows dashboard shows workflow state and recent activity
  • The Action Log provides run-by-run history with step-level details for troubleshooting and review
