Gravitee's Agent Accountability Framework: Govern AI Agents Like a Digital Workforce
AI Engineer · youtube · 2026-10-27
At AI Engineer, Tim Tyler of Gravitee argued that companies deploy AI agents the way no one would hire a worker: no ID, no manager, shared passwords. His Agent Accountability framework governs agents as a digital workforce in three stages:
- Assignment: identity, team, and a named human sponsor per agent
- Alignment: defined role, mission, and least-privilege authority — "never assume alignment"
- Administration: oversight scorecards, guardian agents that "micromanage" agents, and step-by-step recourse when agents go off course
The framework is published at agentaccountabilityframework.org, with practical details on scope of authority, confidence scoring, content redaction, and human escalation paths.
