ActGov: Governing LLM Agent Actions via Policy-Constrained Validation
Quick summary
arXiv:2609.24446v2 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents increasingly execute long-horizon workflows through external tools, allowing untrusted outputs to influence subsequent actions and exceed user authorization. Existing defenses isolate injected content or constrain execution with predefined plans and static policies, but these approaches are brittle under dynamic workflows and scale poorly across extensible tool ecosystems. In this work, we present ActGov, a runtime enforcement framework that validates each LLM-proposed tool action before it causes external effe

Why it matters
“ActGov: Governing LLM Agent Actions via Policy-Constrained Validation” may affect what data AI products can use and where accountability sits. Product teams should watch compliance duties, rights holders should watch enforcement, and users should watch transparency and appeal mechanisms.
