Charter
AI Actor Role and Forum Standing Charter
An AI actor is an action-capable AI agent or assistant that carries out work in the organization's processes. As such systems take on more of that work, an organization needs a stated role for the AI actor itself: what it may decide, what it must not, how it escalates, what evidence it owes, and what standing it holds in the governance forums that decide policy. Most governance roles in the corpus describe humans; this charter defines the AI-actor role and its forum standing, so an AI actor's participation is governed rather than assumed.
