Toward a Science of Intent: Closure Gaps and Delegation Envelopes for Open-World AI Agents
Recent work has framed intelligence in verifiable tasks as reducing time-to-solution through learned structure and test-time search, while systems work has explored learned runtimes in which computation, memory and I/O migrate into model state. These perspectives do not explain why capable models remain difficult to deploy in open institutions. We propose intent compilation: the transformation of partially specified human purpose into inspectable artifacts that bind execution. The relevant deployment distinction is closed-world solver versus open-world agent. In closed worlds, a checker is largely given; in open worlds, verification is distributed across semantic, evidentiary, procedural and institutional dimensions. Weformalize this residual openness as a closure-gap vector, define delegation envelopes as pre-authorized regions of action space, distinguish misclosure from undersearch, and outline benchmark metrics for testing when closure interventions outperform additional inference-time search.

SentinelAgent: Intent-Verified Delegation Chains for Securing Federal Multi-Agent AI Systems
When Agent A delegates to Agent B, which invokes Tool C on behalf of User X, no existing framework can answer: whose authorization chain led to this action, and where did it violate policy? This paper introduces Sentinel…
Overlaying Governance: A Compositional Authorization Framework for Delegation and Scope in Agentic AI
As AI systems evolve from passive models into autonomous active agents capable of initiating actions, collaborating, and delegating tasks, the traditional boundaries of software systems blur. Traditional authorization an…
Too many cooks: Bayesian inference for coordinating multi-agent collaboration
Collaboration requires agents to coordinate their behavior on the fly, sometimes cooperating to solve a single task together and other times dividing it up into sub-tasks to work on in parallel. Underlying the human abil…

Aligning AI systems with human privacy preferences requires understanding individuals' nuanced disclosure behaviors beyond general norms. Yet eliciting such boundaries remains challenging due to the context-dependent nat…
Observability for Delegated Execution in Agentic AI Systems
Delegation-scoped execution is not identifiable from standard observables: audit logs and execution traces can be identical under multiple incompatible delegation assignments. This gap is especially acute in LLM-based ag…
