Deterministic Authority: permissions are scoped, logged, and revocable at execution-time. We move from ambient authority to explicit, bounded control.
Security–UX Convergence: safety is engineered into the interface, not bolted on. If a human cannot audit a permission in 300ms, the system is a liability.
Operational Provenance: every action generates an immutable receipt. If your stack cannot attest to its own integrity in real time, it is a prototype—not production infrastructure.
“In the era of agents, trust is no longer a feeling—it is an infrastructure.”
This doctrine codifies patterns from Crittora, the Agent Permission Protocol (APP), and lessons learned architecting for the world’s most critical infrastructures (Verizon, GE, regulated carriers). It is intentionally aggressive and operational: how to scope authority, instrument verifiability, and maintain human sovereignty without sacrificing the velocity of autonomy.
