Custom Policies

Custom Policies are the place to store organization-specific instructions that should outlive any single prompt. The current product exposes them as policy definitions under Compliance -> Policies.

​

What A Policy Is In Today’s Product

A policy is:

• A named definition
• Optional description
• Markdown-style policy content
• A versioned record with history

This is closer to durable operational guidance than to a standalone rule engine UI.

​

What You Can Do

The current UI supports:

• Create from scratch
• Start from a template
• Edit and version a policy
• Duplicate or deactivate it
• Inspect history and processed metadata

The detail view also shows whether the policy has been processed successfully.

​

Good Uses

Use a custom policy when you need Cloudgeni to remember local standards such as:

• Naming conventions
• Required tags or labels
• Repository structure expectations
• Internal security guardrails

Keep the policy short and specific. Long narrative documents are harder for both people and tools to apply consistently.

​

What Not To Assume

Do not describe custom policies as if they were a separate enforcement engine with their own large runtime surface. In the current product they are reusable guidance artifacts that feed Cloudgeni’s workflows.
