Without boundaries, an agent is just a capable system acting inside an unclear mandate.
Core idea
Point 1
People talk about agents as if autonomy is the prize. In real operations, bounded autonomy is the prize.
Point 2
An agent needs to know what it can do, what it cannot do, when it must ask, when it must escalate, and when it must stop.
Point 3
Those boundaries come from the business. They are not created by the model. They are created by permission design.
Point 4
If you want agents in real workflows, define the approval layer before the agent becomes the workflow.
Point 5
That is the point of the audit: make permissions visible before capability scales.
