DELTAX EVALUATE — YOUR FIRST INTEGRATION
Planning checklist | November 2026
https://deltaxevaluate.com/developers

Start with one workflow and synthetic data. This checklist helps you plan
an integration; it does not grant API access or execution authority.

1. NAME THE HANDOFF
[ ] Describe the problem and the person or system that owns the next action.
[ ] Choose a bounded review activity: analyze, compare, draft, or validate.
[ ] Define what should happen when no eligible review step remains.

2. START WITH PREFLIGHT, IF IT FITS
[ ] Put policy and evidence under the workflow owner's control.
[ ] Use public Preflight locally through its CLI, MCP server, or GitHub Action.
[ ] Treat missing evidence, multiple eligible options, and refusal distinctly.
[ ] Keep any Evaluate API handoff explicit and separately authorized.

3. PREPARE THE API REQUEST
[ ] Request restricted access before connecting to the hosted API.
[ ] Keep credentials on your server, never in the browser or a public repo.
[ ] Supply one to eight candidates with supported semantic classes.
[ ] Minimize context; use synthetic inputs while exploring the contract.
[ ] Remember that context and support values are caller-reported, not verified.
[ ] Preserve the exact request and its idempotency key for retries.

4. HANDLE BOTH OUTCOMES
[ ] Validate the response envelope and supported result type.
[ ] Handle selected and governed_noop_refusal as separate outcomes.
[ ] Keep external_effect and execution-authority flags false.
[ ] Record the selected candidate, gate decisions, and trace references.
[ ] Store the request and receipt together for later inspection.
[ ] Preserve uncertain outcomes for reconciliation; do not silently bypass review.

5. KEEP EXECUTION SEPARATE
[ ] A selected activity is not performed by Evaluate.
[ ] Apply your application's permissions and approvals before a later action.
[ ] Record later execution independently from the evaluation receipt.
[ ] Test authentication errors, limits, refusal, exact retries, and timeouts.
