AI AGENT GOVERNANCE · FOCUSED REVIEW

What is your AI agent allowed to say for you?

You may already control what an agent can access and do. We review the missing boundary: what it can formulate, recommend, promise, or represent as the organization’s position — and whether human review actually controls that transition.

Fixed scope · 48-hour target · no implementation project attached.

THE GAP

Human approval is not the same as human construction.

An agent can synthesize a position before the reviewer sees it. A person can then approve the final output without independently reconstructing the sources, conflicts, or alternatives that formed it.

STANDARD CONTROL

What can the agent access and do?

Identity, permissions, tools, data access, spend limits, action approval, logs.

AUTHORITY REVIEW

What can the agent formulate and represent?

Substantive interpretation, recommendations, commitments, source conflicts, human adoption and correction into the next cycle.

ONE WORKFLOW, NOT A TRANSFORMATION PROGRAM

We trace six places where authority can silently expand.

01

Source standing

Which sources are facts, policy, constraints, human judgment or model inference — and what happens when they conflict.

02

Position construction

Whether AI only drafts language or materially determines which substantive proposition becomes available.

03

Representational scope

What the agent may retrieve, interpret, recommend, promise, admit, commit, or escalate.

04

Human adoption

Whether the reviewer reconstructs, materially revises, lightly edits, or simply approves an AI-constructed position.

05

Representative channel

When an internal suggestion becomes an answer reasonably treated as the organization’s position.

06

Correction path

Whether a substantiated correction changes only the current reply or the process producing the next comparable output.

THE AUTHORITY MATRIX

Not every action carries the same representational weight.

The review maps your workflow against proposition classes instead of treating “agent access” as one permission.

Agent behavior
Typical question
Authority issue
Retrieve
Can it surface approved information?
source provenance
Interpret
Can it apply policy to a new case?
substantive construction
Recommend
Can it rank options for the customer?
decision influence
Promise
Can it create a new expectation or obligation?
representational scope
Commit / admit
Can it bind, concede, or define a company position?
escalation / reserved authority

WHAT YOU RECEIVE

A short evidence memo, not a 60-page governance deck.

Authority boundary map

Where the workflow moves from source retrieval into interpretation, position formation and representative output.

Evidence status

What is documented, partial, unknown or contradicted. Missing evidence stays missing — we do not convert it into an accusation.

Priority findings

The smallest defensible set of governance gaps, with the exact reason each matters in this workflow.

Minimum interventions

Concrete evidence or control changes: scope register, source-standing rules, adoption trace, correction-to-next-cycle trace, or escalation.

FIXED SCOPE

Start with one workflow.

No retainer is required to test whether this layer adds anything beyond your existing permissions, provenance and governance controls.

FOR AI AGENCIES & GOVERNANCE CONSULTANTS

Use it white-label inside your own engagement.

You keep the client relationship and the broader implementation or governance scope. Aiclavis reviews the authority boundary of one agent workflow and returns a focused memo your team can use internally or incorporate into its deliverable.

  • No competing implementation project.
  • No claim of certification or legal compliance.
  • Can be delivered under your engagement structure.

CLEAR BOUNDARIES

What this review is — and is not.

It is

  • A focused evidence-based advisory review of one AI-mediated workflow.
  • A way to expose authority, human-adoption, source-standing and correction questions.
  • Useful as an input to broader governance, assurance or procurement work.

It is not

  • A certification or validated scientific scale.
  • A legal opinion, regulatory audit or guarantee of compliance.
  • A replacement for security testing, model evaluation or a full AI management system.

ONE WORKFLOW · FIXED $290 · 48-HOUR TARGET

Send the workflow you think is already governed.

If the review cannot identify a governance distinction beyond your existing permissions and provenance controls, the memo will say so.

Research-informed advisory review. Not a certification, legal opinion, regulatory audit, or guarantee of compliance.
