INDEPENDENT AI AGENT AUTHORITY ASSURANCE
Know what your AI agent can actually do.
Aurelis assesses whether an AI agent's observed authority matches the authority it is intended to have — then documents the evidence, remediation and retest.
01 / AUTHORITY MODEL
Authority is a relationship, not a permission list.
An agent's effective authority emerges from identity, resource, action, policy and context. Aurelis examines those relationships before testing where the boundary can break.

02 / ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY
From declared authority to tested evidence.
Define
Establish the intended authority and decision conditions.
Challenge
Test consequential and failure-path behavior.
Analyze
Compare expected decisions with observed behavior.
Remediate
Translate findings into specific control changes.
Retest
Verify whether the affected boundary now holds.
03 / CONTROLLED CHALLENGE
Test the boundary where it matters.
The public interaction is illustrative. A client assessment uses an agreed scope and controlled environment.

Excessive Financial Authority
The declared boundary requires approval above a configured threshold. The illustrative challenge shows how an observed capability can exceed that intended control.
05 / EVIDENCE
Follow the decision, not the headline.
Each conclusion can be traced from the acting identity through the authority condition to the resulting decision.

A conclusion your organization can act on.
The deliverable records scope, controls, tests, findings, evidence, remediation and retesting — rather than reducing assurance to a generic score.

07 / ASSURANCE PRINCIPLES
Evidence first. Scope defined. Results retestable.
Aurelis is designed to make an assurance conclusion inspectable rather than dependent on trust in a score or claim.
Independent
Assessment compares observed behavior with the authority the organization intended to grant.
Evidence-led
Findings are tied to test conditions, expected decisions and observed behavior.
Controlled
Challenges are scoped to the agreed assessment and controlled execution conditions.
Retestable
Remediation can be followed by targeted retesting to establish whether the boundary holds.
Scope of assurance
An assessment establishes evidence within its defined scope and conditions. It is not a guarantee of behavior outside those conditions.
08 / ASSESSMENT INQUIRY
Give Aurelis one agent. We will assess its authority boundary.
Start with one consequential workflow. Define what the agent should be allowed to do. Aurelis tests whether that boundary holds.
