Summary

Obligations specific to AI systems that take autonomous multi-step actions (browse, transact, plan, recurse). Distinct from foundation_models (capability) and catastrophic_risk (outcome) — this is the action-surface frame. Surfaces in EU AI Office GPAI Code drafts, UK AISI agent evaluations, Seoul Frontier AI Safety Commitments §3, NIST AI 600-1.

At a glance

Instruments governing: 5
Instruments in conflict: 0
Instruments silent: 12
Contested question: Should governance attach to the AGENT (multi-step actions, tool use, recursion) or to the model that powers it? Capability-tier vs action-tier frames are unresolved across jurisdictions.
