Separation of doing and checking."," A structural separation between agents that perform work\nand agents or humans that independently review it. Performing agents generate outputs — analysis,\nextraction, classification, recommendations. Reviewing agents or humans independently assess those\noutputs against defined criteria. This aligns with four-eyes principles and data integrity\nexpectations, and reduces error propagation and silent failure modes.",[11,27,28,31],{},[22,29,30],{},"2. Bounded agent roles and intent."," Each agent has a clearly defined purpose, scope, and\nresponsibility — designed as a role, not a general-purpose problem-solver, with explicit and\ncontrolled inputs, expectation-bound structured outputs, and a declared remit that prohibits\noperation outside scope. This supports validation, risk assessment, and impact analysis, and\nimproves predictability, maintainability, and organisational trust.",[11,33,34,37],{},[22,35,36],{},"3. End-to-end traceability by design."," Every AI action is linked across the full lifecycle:\nsource inputs, agent configuration (prompt version and settings), reasoning artefacts where\nappropriate, outputs and findings, and human review disposition and approval.

Controlled change and versioning."," AI behaviour changes when prompts, models, tools, or\ncontext change — QxAIOS treats these as controlled changes: agent definitions are versioned, changes\nare reviewed and approved before deployment, and outputs remain linked to the configuration that\nproduced them.

Human-in-the-loop as a feature."," QxAIOS explicitly designs for human verification wherever\noutcomes matter — not as a limitation, but as a strategic advantage.
