Templates you can use today
Practical artefacts for each HAL domain. Download, adapt, and put them to work. Registers and matrices ship as CSV; checklists and templates as Markdown.
Ownership Register
A single source of truth for every agent: owner, deputy, purpose, authority, risk level, HAL score, and review date.
DownloadRisk Register
Capture the failure modes of an agentic system, their likelihood and impact, and the controls that mitigate each.
DownloadEscalation Matrix
Define each escalation trigger, the named recipient, the response-time SLA, and whether the action pauses.
DownloadEvidence Checklist
Confirm that inputs, reasoning, versions, authority, and human touchpoints are captured immutably for every action.
DownloadReview Template
Structure a periodic review against the original justification: performance, incidents, drift, and continued fitness.
DownloadIncident Response Template
A runbook for when an agent misbehaves: detect, pause, contain, communicate, remediate, and learn.
DownloadAudit Checklist
A reviewer-ready checklist covering all eight HAL domains, suitable for internal or external assurance.
DownloadBoard Reporting Template
Summarise the organisation's agentic estate for the board: scores, concentration of risk, incidents, and decisions needed.
DownloadUsing the toolkit
Start with the Ownership Register. It is the anchor for everything else. Then work outward: an Authority Matrix per system, an Escalation Matrix for its triggers, and the Audit Checklist when you are ready to assure the lot.
