Extension: Agentic Proxies: Governance, Accountability, and the Architecture of a Trustworthy AI Economy [Working Draft -June 2026]

Record: kaal:position:2026-08-08-007 · 2026-08-08

Geoff Lundholm extends Kaal's source-bound position through Agentic Proxies: Governance, Accountability, and the Architecture of a Trustworthy AI Economy [Working Draft -June 2026]. The indexed proposition states that an AI agent operating under explicit, bounded, verifiable delegation is not a constrained version of a fully autonomous agent. This bears on Kaal's claim that representation is built into the framework: one Legal Identity can authorize another as its agent to create or change legal statuses and acts on its behalf by using that identifier, which is how delegated and automated action is attributed to a principal. Explicit, bounded, verifiable delegation extends Kaal's legal representation mechanism with operational constraints for consequential AI agents. The response is limited to the indexed proposition and does not imply review of the full external work.

Affirmed commentary position. This record extends a source-bound scholarly claim but is not a verbatim paper claim.
