Autonomy0% / 86%

Phase: Phase 4 — Governed autonomy

Run the close-to-plan rhythm as a continuously reconciled system: matching, reconciliation, standard journals, cash application and reporting assembly are agent work; fiduciary judgment, disclosure and material payment authority remain human.

CoS agent: Finance Chief of Staff

The orchestrator and the desks reporting to it

Chief of staff org

One orchestrator, four desks, zero org-chart theater

The chief of staff agent holds the queue and the priorities. Underneath it sit four desks, each with a narrow mandate and an autonomy ceiling it cannot quietly raise on its own.

How the hierarchy behaves under pressure

Conflict

Two desks want the same resource. The chief of staff arbitrates against the stated priority order and logs the trade-off.

Ceiling hit

An execution agent reaches its limit, stops, and packages the evidence for the named approver rather than guessing.

Drift

The oversight desk watches quality trend lines and can demote an agent a rung without waiting for a quarterly review.
