AIGP Understanding How to Govern AI Deployment and Use Medium

Restrict the agent’s action pathway immediately and preserve operations through a controlled fallback.

The question

A retail demand-planning agent unexpectedly placed a supplier order outside its approved limit. Logs show the triggering instruction came through a connected tool. What is the immediate containment decision?

  1. Require manager review for the next order.
    Reviewing only the next order leaves the agent’s unauthorized tool capability available for additional unintended actions.
  2. Keep the agent active while expanding order monitoring.
    Additional monitoring may reveal activity, but continued unrestricted access permits further consequential actions before controls are corrected.
  3. Retrain the agent using the ordering incident.
    Incident data may support later improvement, but retraining does not immediately stop the active authorization pathway.
  4. Revoke its tool access and activate fallback. ✓
    Immediate permission restriction and a workable fallback contain further actions while preserving business continuity and enabling investigation.
The trap
When an agent acts beyond scope, contain permissions first; investigation and retraining follow containment.

How to remember it
