NM-1 — Near-Miss Capture

Control Type: Learning loop
Status: Coming soon
Intent: Turn almost-failures into system improvement

---

Purpose

NM-1 captures near-misses—situations where harm almost occurred—before memory fades or normalization sets in.

It treats near-misses as assets, not embarrassments.

---

Use When

• a bad outcome was narrowly avoided
• an escalation felt late but worked
• a Stop Ladder tier nearly failed
• a decision “worked” but felt unsafe

---

What This Control Will Require

• one-minute structured log
• pressure tags (HPC-1)
• what stopped harm
• what nearly failed

---

Output

• Near-miss record
• Pattern signals for future prevention
