SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Pre-return constitutional self-critique ensures every agent's draft aligns with the agency constitution before shipping, reducing policy drift and unsafe outputs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enforces a two-phase workflow: draft → constitutional check → revise or ship.
  • Integrates with related governance skills (injection-defense, audit, self-knowledge) to ensure consistency and safety.
  • Use Case: before delivering a critical customer-facing reply, run the self-critique to confirm adherence to principles and to log any required revisions.

Quick Start

Trigger the self-critique on the current draft to verify alignment with the frozen principles.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify policy compliance before returning an AI generated draft?▼

To verify policy compliance before returning a draft, trigger a self-critique gate that checks the draft against frozen constitutional principles, logging the verdict and revision count to ensure alignment before shipping.

What is a constitutional check in AI policy compliance?▼

A constitutional check is a pre-return verification mechanism that evaluates draft outputs against frozen principles to prevent policy drift and ensure unsafe or non-compliant responses are corrected before delivery.

How do I audit and revise AI drafts that fail compliance checks?▼

You audit and revise drafts using a two-phase loop where the draft is checked against constitutional principles, revised if necessary, and escalated after two unsuccessful rounds of failing the self-critique.

Does this self-critique workflow integrate with injection-defense and audit systems?▼

Yes, the self-critique workflow integrates with related governance skills like injection-defense, audit, and self-knowledge to maintain consistency, safety, and policy compliance across the agent system.

What happens when an output fails constitutional checks after two revision rounds?▼

When an output fails constitutional checks after two unsuccessful revision rounds, the self-critique mechanism escalates the draft to prevent shipping a non-compliant or unsafe response.
