Phase zero: inventory
Discover existing automations, scripts, and agents touching production data or payments. Assign interim sponsors and block new undeclared agents.
Auctra registry becomes system of record for approved agents. Shadow agent remediation runs parallel to pilot.
Phase one: pilot
Select one high-value workflow—refunds or procurement—with executive sponsor. Integrate evaluateAction; use Builder then Team within thirty days.
Deliver first accountability report to finance and security. Document lessons in internal wiki with architecture diagrams.
Phase two: enforce
Expand action types; enable fail-closed globally for monetary paths. Train reviewers on approval console workflows.
Upgrade to Business for business units requiring immutable audit. Enterprise contract covers company-wide DPAs.
Phase three: scale
Mandate authority integration in platform engineering templates for new agents. Include authority gates in vendor security questionnaires for third-party agents.
Quarterly executive review of accountability metrics and incident trends. Continuous tuning beats big-bang policy rewrites.
Key takeaways
- Authority is enforced before side effects — use Agents registry and evaluateAction together.
- Every production agent needs a named sponsor and bounded delegation visible in the console.
- Blocked and approval-required outcomes are evidence, not failures — review them in Agents registry.
