Executive Briefing: Point an agent at your calendar and your repo, and it will show you the rules your company is actually running. Here are the 15 I wrote for mine.
Your company already has commandments that nobody voted on or consciously decided to enforce.
TL;DR
- Companies have unwritten rules embedded in recurring meetings, templates, and approval chains, often formed by past scarcities.
- AI is dissolving old scarcities but not the judgment beneath them, necessitating explicit rule-making.
- A method is provided to separate values, rules, runtime checks, and human appeals, and to analyze rules based on the scarcity that created them.
- The article introduces a five-rung enforcement ladder and a 'Meeting Challenger' tool to help implement and enforce rules, potentially with AI agents.
- The process encourages rewriting rules and defining their enforcement and overruling mechanisms.
