Agent/System Card

Action Class Catalog
Appendix BEnterprise-wide definitions of consequential action classes with default tiers, gates, verification requirements, logging standards, and rollback procedures.
Define once, apply everywhere. Prevents "one-off" rules and makes approvals auditable.

Required when accepting residual risk for Tier 4-5 systems or when waiving controls.
Assurance Pack
Appendix EA 10-item exportable evidence bundle proving governance and control: registry entries, traces, eval results, drill records, and exception status.
Export within hours for customer assurance requests, audits, or incident response.
Incident Response Playbook
Appendix FStep-by-step playbook for agentic incidents: containment, evidence preservation, investigation, rollback, communications, and corrective actions.
Prepare before incidents occur. Cover leakage, unauthorized actions, spoofing, poisoning, chaining runaway, and drift.
Vendor Questionnaire
Appendix GACR/STRIKE-aligned questions for vendor procurement: enforcement, evidence export, connector governance, model updates, data handling, incident response, and testing rights.
Use before purchasing agentic SaaS or AI platforms to ensure governance is implementable.
