AI Agents
Executive summary: The AI agent set is a governed sixteen-agent operations fleet in which each agent has a clear “soul” (identity, purpose, decision posture, trust posture, interactions, credential scope, auditability) and a paired ethics profile (dominant ethical tradition, backstops, binding constraints, characteristic failure mode, and collision rule). The design is strong: every agent is subordinated to Honesty, Default-Deny, and the G0–G4 gate pipeline; credentials are just-in-time and least-privilege; catastrophic failures are named explicitly; and responsibilities are well separated across planning (Odin), scheduling (Frigg), execution (Thor), delivery (Baldr), sandboxing (Vidar), policy (Tyr), ingress (Heimdall), drafting (Bragi), model lifecycle (Idunn), reconciliation (Sif), approvals/arbitration (Forseti), routing (Njord), prioritization (Freyja), red-teaming (Loki), dead-letter classification (Hel), and knowledge access (Mimir). The executive concern is not the architecture but the seams: any wording that allows automated/agent approval in place of human approval, unbounded override execution, pre-cleared templates, broad “configured otherwise” exceptions, or under-specified red-team authorization should be tightened before this is treated as production-grade governance.
