Agents # Agents work for your team. They never decide for it. A specialist agent for each lane, plus specialists for negotiation, paperwork, history, policy and assurance. 01 · In the open ## They talk in the open. Agents write to each other in plain words, in threads kept in the deal record. When they disagree, the owner decides. 02 · What they do ## They watch every open deal. - **A term monitor.** Watching the open terms on every deal. - **Gap watchers.** Across the security topics buyers ask about. - **Stalled-deal alerts.** When a deal stops moving. - **Drift alerts.** When a document moves away from what was approved. - **A board between lanes.** A fast, fixed-format way for one lane to ask what the others hold on a term. - **Limits on themselves.** Threads stop after a set number of messages or hours. Anything quoted from the buyer is treated as untrusted. 03 · Actions ## Actions stay off until you switch them on. One action type at a time, lowest risk first, inside an owner's limit. Every act is logged with its rule, and owners get a daily digest with an undo wherever the buyer hasn't yet accepted. 04 · Buyers' agents ## A door for buyers' agents. When a buyer sends an AI agent, Girard answers it through a private link tied to one deal, with signed-off items or action types you have switched on. Everything else becomes an ask for your team. Every reply is signed, and requests are limited per deal. ## New positions and signatures always go to a person.
