BROKEN LOOP DIAGNOSTIC

Find Where the Verbs Went

A field artifact for testing whether oversight, automation, and contestability still preserve meaningful control.

MAIN ISSUE

A Broken Loop Diagnostic

A human in the loop is not the same as human control. This diagnostic helps locate the control verbs inside an AI-assisted workflow: stop, reverse, amend, compensate, refuse, escalate, verify, and own.

Downloads

Use the worksheet to inspect whether control verbs remain reachable before consequence is locked.

What this tests

This artifact tests control without needing to prove motive, deception, or legal fault.
