	 <t>   The Apple-Siri interoperability debate under the EU Digital Markets Act
exposes a difficult technical question: how can third-party AI assistants gain meaningful
access to device functions without forcing the platform to surrender privacy, security, or control over consequential actions?     This paper proposes an execution-finality architecture in which an AI assistant may request an action, but the request itself has no power to make
that action effective. Each consequential operation remains in a Non-Effective State
until protected infrastructure validates the requester, resource, destination, user intent where required, freshness, revocation state, and policy conditions.     Only then is narrowly scoped, non-bearer execution authority created. At the Finality Sink - the first boundary where the
action can become externally effective - the system independently verifies that the real
operation still matches what was authorized. Any mismatch, replay, substitution, expiry,
or revocation causes fail-closed denial. The key principle is simple: 
   Interoperability should grant participation, not uncontrolled execution
authority. 
   This offers a possible technical path through the DMA deadlock: third-party
assistants could participate meaningfully without requiring broad reusable
permissions, while platforms retain strong privacy, security, revocation,
anti-replay, and final-effect controls.  Execution-Finality Governance therefore
reframes the problem from closed versus open to open participation with bounded,
verifiable authority.
