SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a way to establish and enforce specific behavioral constraints and operational guidelines for an AI assistant within a conversation, ensuring its responses align with desired levels of accuracy, security, creativity, or research depth.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Behavioral Guardrails: Apply predefined modes like high-security, high-integrity, or creative to guide the AI's output.
  • Session Control: Set operational postures (scout, defense, offense) to manage the scope of AI actions.
  • Role Management: Define AI roles for multi-agent workflows.
  • Use Case: Before starting a sensitive analysis, you can invoke /govern high-integrity to ensure the AI cites its sources and flags any uncertainties, preventing the spread of misinformation.

Quick Start

Use the govern skill to set the governance mode to high-security.

FAQPage Schema
What are AI governance modes and how do they constrain session behavior?

AI governance modes establish constitutional constraints that dictate an assistant's accuracy, security, creativity, or research depth for an entire session. They apply behavioral guardrails to ensure responses align with specific operational guidelines and postures.

How do I set AI behavioral guardrails for a sensitive analysis session?

You can set behavioral guardrails by invoking a specific governance mode like high-integrity at the start of a session. This ensures the AI operates under strict constraints, such as citing sources and flagging uncertainties to prevent misinformation.

Can I use constitutional AI controls to manage multi-agent workflows?

Yes, constitutional AI controls support role management for multi-agent workflows. You can define specific AI roles and set operational postures like scout, defense, or offense to manage the scope of actions across different agents.

What is the best way to enforce high-security constraints on AI responses?

The best way to enforce high-security constraints is to activate the high-security governance mode. This applies predefined behavioral guardrails that restrict the AI's operational scope and secure its outputs for the duration of the conversation.

Does setting a governance mode limit the AI's creativity during research tasks?

Setting a governance mode tailors behavior rather than strictly limiting it. You can switch to the research mode for depth or the creative mode to allow broader outputs, adjusting the constitutional constraints to fit your current task requirements.
