Decision rights models assume human decision-makers. AI agents breach that assumption silently. Here is how to extend decision rights to cover autonomous actors before the first ungoverned decision becomes a production incident.
One ADR template does not fit every architectural context. Five purpose-built variations — for standard decisions, agentic AI, cross-domain impact, fast delivery, and high-risk reversals — plus governance automation to make the system run without manual follow-up.
AI agents are making micro-architecture decisions in production. No ADR recorded them. No review board approved them. No architect ever saw them. Here is the structural fix.
Why Architectural Decision Records are the only structure most organizations already have that can govern AI agent accountability — and how to extend them into an Agentic Decision Log before the EU AI Act deadline.
A structured guide explaining how AI systems evolve from simple model usage to governed platforms, and how to scale complexity without losing architectural control.
