# Agent Governance System
> A comprehensive framework for governing AI agent execution with security, auditability, and coordination.
> Production-grade framework for governing AI agent execution with multi-agent orchestration, Vault-backed security, real-time observability, and consensus-driven workflows.
## Overview
**Status:** Phase 12 COMPLETE | **Tests:** 295/295 passing | **Coverage:** All 12 phases validated
The Agent Governance System provides infrastructure for running AI agents with:
- **Tiered permissions** (T0 observer, T1 executor, T2 admin)
- **Audit trails** via SQLite ledger
- **Secure credentials** via HashiCorp Vault
- **State coordination** via DragonflyDB
- **Pipeline orchestration** for multi-agent workflows
- **Context management** for long-running sessions
---
## Quick Start
```bash
# Check system status
checkpoint load # Load session state
status dashboard # View directory progress
memory stats # Check memory usage
# Check system health
checkpoint load # Load session state
checkpoint report # View combined status
validate-phases --verbose # Run full validation (295 tests)
# Create checkpoint after work
checkpoint now --notes "Description of completed work"
# Run the orchestration dashboard
cd /opt/agent-governance/ui && bun run server.ts
# Dashboard: http://localhost:3000
# Bug tracking
bugs list --status open # View open bugs
bugs log -m "Description" --severity high # Log new bug
# Pipeline operations
pipeline spawn --plan <plan_id> --tier 1 # Spawn pipeline agents

## Key Workflows
### Multi-Agent Pipeline
1. **Spawn**: Pipeline created with objective, issues Vault token (2hr TTL, auto-renew)
2. **Running**: ALPHA (research) and BETA (synthesis) agents work in parallel
3. **Orchestrating**: Agents communicate via blackboard + direct messages
4. **Consensus**: Proposals evaluated, votes counted, conflicts resolved
5. **GAMMA Spawn**: If stuck >30s, conflicts >3, or complexity >0.8
6. **Completion**: Final consensus achieved or fallback action taken
### Consensus Failure Handling
When agents fail to reach consensus:
- **Rerun Same**: Spawn fresh ALPHA/BETA with failure context
- **Rerun with GAMMA**: Force mediator agent for conflict resolution
- **Escalate Tier**: Increase agent permissions and retry
- **Accept Partial**: Complete with best available proposal
- **Download Log**: Export full context for manual review
### Vault Token Lifecycle

## Production Constraints
## Current Status
### Token Revocation Triggers
```
Progress: ███████░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ 23%
| Condition | Threshold | Action |
|-----------|-----------|--------|
| Error rate | > 5 errors/minute | Revoke + spawn diagnostic |
| Stuck agent | > 60 seconds no progress | Revoke agent token only |
| Policy violation | Any CRITICAL | Immediate full revocation |
| Resource abuse | > 100 API calls/minute | Rate limit, then revoke |
✅ Complete: 14 directories
🚧 In Progress: 5 directories
```
### Consensus Requirements
Run `status dashboard` for current details.
- Pipelines remain in `ORCHESTRATING` until consensus achieved
- Exit code 0 = success, 1 = error, 2 = consensus failure
- Failure context recorded to DragonflyDB for retry attempts
- User must explicitly accept partial output to complete without consensus
