Run the statutory notification clock from when a reportable event is known, draft the notification against the regulator form, and keep the readiness record true — a named mine official makes the call.
An event occurs, and the record is pulled from supported control-room, dispatch, shift-log and roster sources.
02
A clock starts when the operator knew or should have known, not when somebody finished deciding.
Reason
03
A notification is drafted against the fields the regulator form asks for, and held for the official who makes it.
04
A scene is preserved, and the duty that attached at the event is surfaced with the record it has to leave behind.
05
A filing window opens, and the accident report and the quarterly return are tracked against the event that began them.
Decide
06
A drill falls due, and coverage is counted against the roster that actually worked, not the roster on the plan.
07
A physical expires, and the agent tracks the date on the form and never what the physician wrote inside it.
Out
08
A plan is approved, and the training window is counted from the approval date, not the date it was submitted.
09
A write action runs only inside the approval boundaries agreed during implementation.
→Product statement
The agent runs the clock and keeps the record; a named mine official notifies, and a record found wrong is corrected after it was relied on.
Example workflow

1First report receivedControl room, dispatch log, shift record and medical transport note

3Notification draftedDraft notification, form fields, preservation checklist, open items and confidence
4Controls appliedForm-field completeness, clock checks, preservation and retention tests and confidence threshold
No human action required
Stages 1 to 4 run unaided, and nothing is notified at any of them — the agent is drafting, and the official lane opens at the confidence gate.
5DecisionBranches at the confidence threshold
High confidence
Goes to the mine official.
Low confidence
Adds a safety manager read first.
Official review
The draft is held with its clock, its open items and the confidence.

✓Draft the notification against the fields the form requires.
✓Surface the preservation and record duties that attach at the event.
✓Name what has expired in the readiness record, and hold the pack.

03Clock and pack
Start the clock on the record
The window opens when the operator knew or should have known, so the time spent deciding is already time elapsed.
01Approved path
Doubt resolves toward calling
In Canyon Fuel, decided 30 January 2026, the Commission held the window opened as soon as the foreman was told.
02Human review
Not the alarm, and not the response
Our maintenance planning agent carries equipment currency; our safety compliance assistant carries training and document currency. This page owns the clock that starts at an event.

The event, the clock it started and the official who notified stay on the notification.
Integrations

Five system groups connect to the same agent. Which of them are in scope is decided in discovery.

A site-level notification-timeliness figure can read as clean while a few event classes carry most of the returned items. Nestack reports the return rate by event class, not only in total.

Evidence-linked improvement
A cycle ends when the suite grows by one
A cycle is done when the missed window has become a case the next release must pass. That suite is what the next notification drafted is measured against.
Improvement cycle · five stagesSwitchback — the path turns at Improve and returns at Learn
01Detect
Return rate rises in one event class.
02Diagnose
The fifteen minutes that started while somebody drove out to look are read back until the cause narrows to one.
03Improve
Stamp the change; the events behind it are filed under that number.
04Verify
Each touched notification case runs once more, and one red holds it.
05Learn
It stays as a standing test, and the reporting rules move with it.
Learn → DetectThe return edge. Detection next time runs against one more case than last.

Next step · Mining AI agent
Build the notification clock before the fifteen minutes start.
Show us your event classes, your control-room records and the readiness ledger you keep. The record has to survive being read back years later by someone who already knows what happened and wants to know what you knew and when — so we build the clock, the pack and the ledger against that reading. During the event itself the agent is not in the loop, and the official keeps the call.
