Solution Pack
A versioned, signed bundle of a governed solution you can verify and re-deploy.

Solution Pack, in plain language.
A solution pack is a portable artifact that captures a complete governed solution — its object types, policies, actions, and agent definitions — as a single versioned, signed bundle. It is how a tested configuration moves between environments or organizations without copy-pasting settings by hand.
Packs make governance shippable. Rather than reproducing a solution by re-clicking through a console, you export it once, verify its integrity, and import it elsewhere — with confidence that what you deployed is exactly what was built, because the bundle is signed.
How Cortex implements it.
This term isn't abstract here — it maps to a real capability in the runtime. Here is exactly how Cortex enforces or relates to it.
Cortex packs bundle ontology types, policy rules, and action definitions (and agent metadata for reference), hash the canonicalized contents into a content hash, and sign it with HMAC-SHA256. verifyPack checks both the hash and the signature, so any tamper breaks hashOk and any wrong secret breaks signatureOk.
Import verifies first and refuses an invalid pack (409), then idempotently upserts the definitions into the caller's own tenant — an import preview shows a per-section diff of added, changed, and unchanged items before you apply.
Keep building the vocabulary.
These terms sit next to this one in the governed-AI model — follow the thread to see how the controls connect.
Hash chain
A sequence of records where each one cryptographically includes the hash of the previous.
Tamper-evident
A record whose integrity can be proven — any change to it is detectable after the fact.
Tenant isolation
Strict separation so one customer's data and agents can never reach another's.
Ontology
The business object model — types, instances, and relationships — agents reason over.
