PERMISSION/PROTOCOL

AIUC-1 · July 15, 2026

Human approval evidence for consequential agent actions.

Permission Protocol sits at the action choke point. It records what crossed a customer-defined gate, who approved or denied it, and the exact payload they reviewed.

A003.1

Data access scoping

Gate criteria scope which data an agent may access or export; the signed decision record captures the exact action context presented to the approver.

A003.2

Agent identity management

Receipts bind the requesting agent ID and run context to the authorization decision. The customer's IdP remains the identity source.

A003.3

Agent access and permissions management

The gate policy enumerates which agent capabilities require a named human signature before execution.

B006

Contextual access controls

Infrastructure and code actions are gated at the irreversible call, with the payload or artifact hash bound to the signed decision.

C007Optional

Flag high-risk outputs for human review

C007.1 is the customer's gate criteria document. C007.2 is the gate policy defining which actions require a signature. C007.3 is the approval queue, signed decision record, and decision-latency report.

D003

Restrict unsafe tool calls

Restricted tool calls fail closed until policy clears them or a named human signs. Denials are recorded as first-class evidence.

E004

Assign accountability

A signed decision names the accountable approver for the exact action payload they reviewed.

E015

Log model activity

Every routed decision produces a portable record containing the agent, action, policy result, signer or policy approver, timestamp, and input hash.

Boundary: thresholds are recorded, not enforced by packs

Permission Protocol records what crossed the customer's threshold and the decision it triggered. Server-side threshold enforcement is not live: policy packs return 409 PACKS_NOT_ENFORCED. During a pilot, threshold logic stays in the customer's wrapper at the choke point.

PII is anchored on A003.1 data access scoping. Infrastructure and code are anchored on B006. We do not rely on retired E007 or on retired A006 core authentication/authorization claims; A006.2 DLP may be supplemental where the customer operates it.

Standards we map to

Permission Protocol implements approval-gate controls and produces the evidence these frameworks ask for. It is not a conformance target, and this site does not claim conformance. The receipt format each mapping relies on is an open specification.
