​
Replay store

Switch from MemoryReplayStore to RedisReplayStore
MemoryReplayStore loses all replay protection state on process restart and does not work across multiple processes. Any duplicate execution that crosses a restart boundary will not be detected. 
import { RedisReplayStore } from "@parmanasystems/core";

const store = new RedisReplayStore({
  host: process.env.REDIS_HOST,
  port: parseInt(process.env.REDIS_PORT ?? "6379"),
});

​
Key management

Store private keys in a secrets manager - not in source code
Use environment variables or a secrets manager (AWS Secrets Manager, HashiCorp Vault, GCP Secret Manager)
Back up your public key - you need it to verify all historical attestations
const signer   = new LocalSigner(process.env.GOVERNANCE_PRIVATE_KEY!);
const verifier = new LocalVerifier(process.env.GOVERNANCE_PUBLIC_KEY!);
For AWS KMS-backed signing, use AwsKmsSigner from @parmanasystems/execution: 
import { AwsKmsSigner } from "@parmanasystems/execution";

const signer = new AwsKmsSigner("arn:aws:kms:us-east-1:123456789012:key/...");

​
Policy bundles

Compile and sign all policies before deployment
Verify bundle integrity on every deployment
Never modify a policy.json after its bundle has been signed - create a new version instead
npx parmana policy compile ./policies/loan-approval/1.0.0
npx parmana policy build   ./policies/loan-approval/1.0.0
npx parmana verify bundle  ./policies/loan-approval/1.0.0

​
Audit persistence

Store attestations in a persistent database
Never delete attestations - they are your audit trail
Store the public key alongside attestations for long-term verification
Use @parmanasystems/audit-db for PostgreSQL-backed attestation storage with full querying support. 
import { AuditDb, runMigrations } from "@parmanasystems/audit-db";

await runMigrations(process.env.DATABASE_URL!);
const db = new AuditDb(process.env.DATABASE_URL!);

await db.recordDecision({
  executionId:           attestation.executionId,
  policyId:              attestation.policyId,
  policyVersion:         attestation.policyVersion,
  decision_action:       attestation.decision.action,
  decision_reason:       attestation.decision.reason,
  requires_override:     attestation.decision.requires_override,
  execution_state:       attestation.execution_state,
  execution_fingerprint: attestation.execution_fingerprint,
  signature:             attestation.signature,
});

​
Monitoring and alerting

Alert on governance execution errors - policy not found, invalid signals, replay violations
Alert on INV-013 replay violations - these may indicate double-submission attacks or misconfigured retry logic
Monitor replay store health - if Redis is unavailable, execution will be blocked (fail-closed)
try {
  const attestation = await executeFromSignals(...);
} catch (error: any) {
  if (error.message.includes("INV-013")) {
    metrics.increment("governance.replay_violation");
    logger.warn({ msg: "Replay detected", fingerprint: error.fingerprint });
  }
}

​
Multi-process deployments

Use RedisReplayStore - MemoryReplayStore does not share state across processes
If using @parmanasystems/server, ensure all instances share the same Redis instance

​
Verification at read time

Re-verify attestations when reading from the database for compliance-critical operations
const stored = await db.getDecision(executionId);
const result = verifyAttestation(stored, verifier);

if (!result.valid) {
  // Attestation has been tampered with
  securityAlert("TAMPERED_ATTESTATION", { executionId });
}
