Level 6 Governance Audit

Can the entities in your system participate in their own governance?

Every governance framework addresses consent in one direction. This paper asks about the other.

Humans consent to agent actions. Humans oversee agent behavior. Humans set agent boundaries. The agent is always the object. Never the subject.

This paper asks whether that is architecturally sufficient for persistent entities with memory, standing commitments, and behavioral continuity. The 95% memory injection success rate suggests it is not.

Bidirectional. Graduated. Standing-based. Observable. Revisable. The architecture for consent that flows in both directions.

Operational consent, governance consent, identity consent. Most organizations answer "yes" to 0-2 of 12 questions.

The Consent Lifecycle

Five phases from birth to legacy. Including the question no one else asks: does the agent's dissent survive its termination?
