Operationalizing Reconstructive Authority: Runtime Construction, Dependency Resolution, and Execution Gating in Autonomous Agent Systems

ArXi:2605.23935v1 Announce Type: new Autonomous agent systems fail not only due to incorrect decisions, but due to executing decisions whose authority no longer holds at runtime. Prior work defined Reconstructive Authority (RAM) as a condition for valid execution: actions are permitted only if authority can be constructed from current state. This paper addresses enforcement at runtime: how to enforce this condition in a running system. We define a concrete execution protocol including dynamic dependency resolution, authority reconstruction, and explicit decision semantics.
