Module 10 Activity

Scenario

The capstone: an agentic workflow design, complete enough that someone else could build it, with a risk review they could challenge.

What you produce

A complete workflow design - scope, permissions, gate, stopping rules, failure paths - and a risk review with accepted risks, untested areas and an owner.

Steps

1. Write the scope with an explicit autonomy level, a never-does list, three outcomes and an observable success measure. Run the five checks from Unit 00.
2. Specify the tools by effect, gate the irreversible one, and state what prevents each limit from being exceeded.
3. Write five stopping rules and two budgets, sized from the worst legitimate run, and say what happens when each fires.
4. Write one check per control that describes the failing condition deliberately - including a second approval arriving for a decision already acted on.
5. Compare against the manual process including review time and both error rates.
6. Write the risk review: accepted risks with a mitigation and a residual each, untested areas, an owner and next steps. Give it to someone and record every question they ask.

Evidence to hand in

• The scope with the five check results.
• The permission design with the enforcement column.
• The stopping rules and budgets with their sizing rationale.
• One check per control, including the duplicate approval.
• The comparison including both error rates.
• The risk review and the reader's questions.

Review checklist

• The autonomy level is a sentence, not a label.
• Exactly the irreversible actions are gated.
• Ceilings are sized from the worst legitimate run.
• The duplicate-approval case is covered.
• Any measure worse than manual is stated with the trade that justifies it.
• Untested areas are listed and an owner is named.
