Receiver-side action assurance
Decide whether to accept anexternal AI-agent action,and preserve evidence you can replay.
First Instinct evaluates high-responsibility requests initiated outside the receiving organisation’s trust domain. Start in Shadow Mode, apply your own policy, and preserve a source-attributed record of what happened next.
This request would have been denied or escalated under the proposed receiver policy. No production action changed.
Authentication is not acceptance.
Identity providers, agent runtimes, payment networks and carriers can each sign limited facts. None of them decides whether your organisation should accept a specific external action under your own responsibility and policy.
Observe, evaluate, compare, preserve.
Receive an external action and the evidence already available to the customer.
Apply receiver-owned policy without changing production behaviour.
Record whether the action would be allowed, denied, escalated or remain indeterminate.
Keep a source-attributed evaluation record and verify the Target's separately issued outcome.
Every evaluation resolves to one of four states.
indeterminate is not a system error. It means the evidence is insufficient, a status cannot be confirmed, or a binding cannot be verified.
Evidence and policy conditions are met; the action may be accepted.
Policy conditions are not met; the action should not be accepted.
The action needs a human decision before it can be accepted.
Not an error. Evidence is insufficient, a status cannot be confirmed, or a binding cannot be verified.
Three parties, three separately attributed results.
Signs limited source facts.
