Where override evidence usually breaks
Trigger clarity
Teams agree that humans can intervene, but cannot show the exact unsafe-output, confidence, data-age, policy or user-impact condition that requires override.
Fallback ownership
Support, operations, product and engineering assume someone else owns manual continuation when the agent is paused.
Evidence capture
Incidents are discussed in chat or tickets without a redacted evidence log that supports retest, rollback and executive acceptance.
External claims
Marketing, sales or customer-success copy says “safe”, “accurate” or “fully automated” before the evidence boundary has been approved.
Failure escalation checklist
| Failure mode | Override trigger | Named evidence owner | Safe next action | Unsafe claim boundary |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unsafe or harmful answer | Policy, user harm or regulated-advice boundary is crossed. | Risk/product owner with support escalation. | Pause response, route to human, preserve redacted evidence and retest. | Do not claim autonomous safe handling. |
| Stale or missing source | Retrieval source is outdated, absent or conflicts with approved policy. | Knowledge-base owner. | Fallback to approved human script and block source-dependent answer. | Do not claim current or authoritative answers. |
| Tool action blocked | API, workflow or permissions failure prevents task completion. | Platform/tool owner. | Create manual queue, notify affected owner and test rollback route. | Do not claim end-to-end automation. |
| SLA breach or queue spike | Unreviewed human-review items exceed the agreed response window. | Operations/support owner. | Prioritize by user impact, add capacity and record accepted risk. | Do not claim always-on coverage. |
| Customer dispute | User challenges output, decision or action taken by the agent. | Customer-success owner plus risk reviewer. | Escalate, preserve evidence, stop repeat action and approve wording. | Do not claim dispute-free operation. |
