MasterControl Seventeen Every Time

The paper introduces a governed approach to enterprise analytics in which a language model interprets user queries and a deterministic policy selects and runs pre‑approved analytical programs that return both results and evidence. The authors demonstrate that this restriction remains expressive for a defined analytical class—including relational operations, aggregation, comparison, windows, ranking, and similarity—while ensuring reproducibility through fixed meaning, policy, data, and execution rules. In experiments with 440 runs, three 8B models generated SQL and selected tools at runtime, whereas a policy‑executed analyzer achieved a perfect 110/110 match across all test datasets, though no runtime‑planning episodes matched the full answer‑and‑evidence contract. "whyItMatters":"The study shows that a governed, policy‑driven framework can reliably produce accurate, reproducible analytics results, highlighting a viable path for controlled AI‑driven data analysis."

Runtime Governance for Agentic AI: Action-Boundary Control with Trusted Provenance and Fail-Closed Execution

The paper introduces Aegis, a runtime governance system for agentic AI that treats model outputs as action proposals and mediates them through a trusted decision layer before tool execution. Aegis evaluates proposals against active policy, resolves provenance server‑side, fails closed under uncertainty, and routes selected cases through a Senate‑style settlement process. In a sandbox evaluation across 6,300 rows, Aegis prevented all governed mock‑tool applications and risky side‑effect completions, preserving provenance and quorum evidence for all settled cases.
