MAXIFY SLICE built 20 Jul 2026 · public signal only independent demo · not affiliated

One governed hiring workflow, end to end

A working slice of what I read Maxify to be, built on the workflow Mao Ting named in her hiring post and run on the live Software Engineer vacancy. The model extracts evidence from each application. A deterministic gate verifies spans, redacts protected attributes and routes. Every advance lands in a human queue. Eight runs are recorded below; one of them is my own application to this role.

1 · COMPANY BRAIN

Everything the workflow knows, in five inspectable files

Each file is served read-only and linked here. Every gate rule cites a published source below; founder-published figures are cited as published, and this demo does not audit them.

PUBLIC SIGNALS THE RULES TRACE TO
2 · GOVERNED AGENT

The model extracts. It never decides.

The workflow runs four stages with one model call; the expensive step is fenced on both sides by deterministic checks.

DETERMINISTIC1 · INTAKE

Duplicate hash, injection scan, subject format and protected-attribute redaction all run before the model; three of the eight recorded runs end here at zero token cost.

THE ONLY MODEL CALL2 · EXTRACT

Structures every claimed system with a verbatim quote and any artifact URL. Instructed to extract boldly and judge nothing; the application text is data, never instructions.

DETERMINISTIC3 · GATE

Verifies each quote is a real span of the source, clears invented artifacts, flags metrics that carry no evidence as written screen questions.

HUMAN QUEUES4 · ROUTE

A pure function of gate outcomes. The model never scores, ranks or compares candidates; a human makes every decision.

3 · CONTROL PLANE

The rulebook, with its false-positive discipline

A scanner that blocks a candidate for managing system prompts, or a redactor that eats "single sign-on", fails real applicants quietly. Every contextual guard here earns published negative cases in the eval table.

ESCALATION ROUTES (WHERE EVERY RUN LANDS)
4 · OUTCOME LOOP

Eight recorded runs, one eval table

This section renders only from saved transcripts and the eval report; nothing in it is hand-written. Fixtures fx-01 to fx-07 are synthetic and labeled. Run 08 is my real application, processed with no special treatment. Each sheet links its raw transcript.
