Run Agent Permission Boundary Builder with a tiny dummy case and verify it returns the declared output format, missing-input warnings, guardrails, and pass criteria.
Expected output:
Permission matrix and deployment checklist for a tool-using agent.
Pass criteria:
- Passes when the output is specific, complete, safe, testable, approval-aware where needed, and immediately usable with light editing.
⚠️ Guardrails
- Human approval is required before external sends, publishing, destructive changes, spending money, calendar booking, CRM updates that change customer status, or production system changes. Use least-privilege tool access.
