Your team went agentic.
Your process didn’t.
Speed the org can actually sign off on.
Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, and a dozen custom scripts are already producing change across your repositories. None of it appears in your change-control system, your review metrics, or your audit trail — and the first person to notice will be an auditor or an incident.
One control plane above the coding agents your engineers already chose. We don’t ask them to switch tools.
Agent adoption outran the controls it should have landed inside.
None of this is a tooling complaint. It’s a governance gap that widens every sprint you don’t close it.
Shadow agent work.
Engineers adopted agents individually, with individual prompts and individual habits. Your organization has no shared definition of what an agent may do or how its output gets verified.
The review process became a formality.
Volume grew, reviewer capacity didn’t, and approvals started meaning “I saw this go by.” The metrics still look healthy, which is the dangerous part.
Policy documents nobody enforces.
An AI usage policy with no runtime enforcement changes behavior for about two weeks, then becomes a document your team knows exists and nothing else.
Put agentic work back inside the controls you already run.
ASE is the layer above the coding agents — not a replacement for them, and never a competitor to the tools your engineers like.
Roles that can’t approve themselves.
Implementer, reviewer, and approver are distinct roles with distinct scopes, models, and permissions. The control your org already requires of humans now applies to agents.
Risk-scored gates on merges, applies, and releases.
Approval gates map to the transitions your existing process already governs, so agentic work shows up in the same place as everything else.
Definitions and vertical packs.
Versioned definitions and reusable packs let a platform group set the standard once while individual teams keep their own stacks and harnesses.
Keycloak, MFA, passkeys, RBAC.
Agent authority is issued through identity, not inherited from whoever’s workstation launched the run — with external IdP federation available at the higher tiers.
How a team adopts this without a migration.
Nobody changes editors. Nobody gives up their agent CLI.
Keep the agents your engineers chose
Harness catalogs run Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, or local models. ASE governs the work, not the keystrokes.
Define the standard once
A platform group encodes roles, scopes, gates, and compliance requirements as versioned definitions the whole org inherits.
Run governed constellations
Teams launch work against those definitions, with live supervision and independent verification running in parallel.
Report on it like everything else
Runs, gates, approvals, and exceptions export into the audit and compliance artifacts your organization already consumes.
Answers, at the altitude the question gets asked.
The question is never “which model wrote this.” It’s “can we stand behind it.”
- Coverage reporting — how much agentic work was independently verified, and by what.
- Change-control record — gated transitions, approvers, timestamps, and reasons across teams.
- Exception register — every deviation, who granted it, and why — captured when it happened.
- Compliance reports — control-mapped exports for internal audit and external assessors.
- Incident reconstruction — a chain-hashed record that answers “what did the agents do” without a forensic exercise.
This one rarely shows up alone.
See it against one of your repositories.
Thirty minutes, your stack, your review standard — and the artifacts your organization would need at the end.
