E.16:3 - Forces
| Force | Tension |
|---|---|
| Creativity vs Safety | Exploration autonomy vs hard constraints and override duties |
| Locality vs Comparability | A budget stays bound to its claim, working situation, scope, window, policy, and override rule; actual holders, assignments and authority enter a scheduled action check; a Work reference appears only when performance independently qualifies under A.15.1. |
| Simplicity vs Auditability | Lightweight authoring vs ledger‑grade evidence |
| Autonomy vs SoD | Helpful self‑action vs separation‑of‑duties and human‑in‑the‑loop points |
E.16:3.1 - Bias-Annotation
Bias considerations: Gov, Arch, Onto/Epist, Prag, Did. Scope: Universal when wording about a local system-role kind, Method, or Service says that a System may perform Work involving unsupervised decision or actuation, and that Work is admitted through an AutonomyBudgetDecl plus Green-Gate. It is not aimed at purely assistive suggestion-only tools where a human confirms every action at the point of execution.
- Gov. Bias toward enforceable oversight (hard gates, SoD, canonical override SpeechActs). Mitigation: exploration autonomy is still allowed, but only inside an explicit budget and time window.
- Arch. Bias toward gate‑and‑ledger structure (Green‑Gate + Work‑anchored
AutonomyLedger). Mitigation:telemetrySpecRefcan scope what is emitted when full deltas are unnecessary. - Onto/Epist. Bias toward typed, testable constraints (MM‑CHR tokens, explicit admissibility checks). Mitigation: budgets are optional‑field (
?) so low‑risk contexts can start minimal and tighten over time. - Prag. Bias toward measurable quotas may under‑express “soft” autonomy goals. Mitigation: pair
decision_tokenswithrisk_bandsto capture non‑counting limits. - Did. Bias toward explicit mechanics increases authoring surface area. Mitigation: provide a default
AutonomyBudgetDecltemplate and minimal harness cases in F.15.
