# DEC-EX-005 — Production deploy rule Situation: deployment policy. This is the decision that adopts a reusable rule for later production deploys. `DEC-EX-004` is an exception to it. The rule text sits in one effect. There is no separate executable form. ```yaml decision: identity: id: DEC-EX-005 title: Production deploy rule namespace: decision-canon/examples version: "1" question: text: What rule governs a production deploy from now on? decision_class: policy kind: primary: policy state: lifecycle: effective since: "2026-03-01" commitment: selected: Adopt the production deploy rule. by: platform owner at: "2026-03-01" mode: decided effects: - id: e1 type: policy target: production deploys value: > A production deploy names its rollback, comes from a reviewed change, and runs only artifacts that passed malware scanning.
