Command Center
The Command Center is the main dashboard of the TheWARDN console. It provides a real-time overview of your entire AI governance posture in a single view.
Overview
When you log into the console, the Command Center is the first screen you see. It aggregates key governance metrics, recent activity, and quick-access controls so you can assess the health of your AI operations at a glance.
Key Metrics
The top of the dashboard displays real-time summary cards:
| Metric | Description |
|---|---|
| Total Actions Governed | Cumulative count of all actions that have passed through the governance pipeline |
| Actions Cleared (%) | Percentage of actions that received a CLEARED verdict and were allowed to execute |
| Actions Held (%) | Percentage of actions sent to escrow for human review |
| Actions Blocked (%) | Percentage of actions that were denied execution |
| Active Agents | Number of AI agents currently registered and in an active state |
| Policy Count | Total number of CHAM policies currently configured |
TIP
All statistics refresh automatically in real time. There is no need to manually reload the page.
Governance Mode Indicator
The Command Center prominently displays the current governance mode:
- ENFORCED -- All governance decisions are binding. Actions that fail policy checks are blocked or held.
- AUDIT_ONLY -- Governance decisions are logged but not enforced. All actions are allowed through, but verdicts are recorded for review.
- DISABLED -- Governance is turned off. No actions are evaluated.
WARNING
Running in AUDIT_ONLY or DISABLED mode means actions are not being actively governed. Use these modes only during initial setup or testing.
Recent Audit Entries
A live feed of the most recent governed actions appears in the center of the dashboard. Each entry shows:
- Timestamp
- Agent name
- Action type
- Verdict badge (CLEARED / HELD / BLOCKED)
- Tier assignment
Click any entry to navigate to the full audit record in the Audit Trail.
Quick Actions
The Command Center provides quick action buttons for common tasks:
- Register Agent -- Jump directly to the Agent Registry to add a new agent
- Create Policy -- Open the Governance Policies editor
- View Escrow -- Navigate to the Escrow Queue to review held actions
- Run Simulation -- Launch the Governance Lab to test a policy
- Generate Report -- Open the Reports panel to export governance data
Real-Time Updates
The Command Center uses live data feeds to keep all displayed information current. Metrics, audit entries, and agent counts update automatically without requiring a page refresh. When a new action is governed, you will see the totals and percentages adjust immediately.
