Visual governance for multi-agent accountability β’ EU AI Act Article 14 compliant
Novel Feature: Visual Delegation Governance
World-first capability: EATF provides the industry's first visual representation of multi-agent delegation chains with real-time policy enforcement. Unlike traditional AI systems that treat agents as black boxes, EATF makes delegation transparent, accountable, and auditable.

Understanding Delegation Chains
What is a Delegation Chain?
A sequence of authority transfers from an initiating operator to downstream agents and tools. Each step represents a delegation decision and a trust boundary.
Why Depth Limits?
Unlimited delegation can dilute accountability. EATF enforces maximum depth (typically 2-3 hops) to ensure responsibility remains traceable.
Policy Enforcement
Every delegation is validated against organizational policies: risk levels, certification requirements, and approval workflows.
Trust Compatibility
Agents can only delegate to agents of equal or higher trust level. Sandbox agents cannot delegate to production systems.
Audit Trail
Every delegation step is recorded in the immutable audit ledger with cryptographic signatures and timestamps.
Human Oversight
High-risk delegations trigger human approval checkpoints, ensuring critical decisions remain under human control.

- 1.Set appropriate depth limits: Typically 2-3 hops maximum. Deeper chains increase risk and reduce accountability.
- 2.Require certification for high-risk delegations: Only certified agents should delegate to other agents in production environments.
- 3.Enable human approval for cross-boundary delegations: When delegating between different risk levels or organizational boundaries, require human oversight.
- 4.Monitor delegation patterns: Unusual delegation patterns may indicate misconfigured agents or potential security issues.
- 5.Regular audit reviews: Periodically review delegation chains to ensure they align with organizational policies and best practices.
