Incident Reporting · Structured Evidence

Report an authority failure

This form maps a real event to one of the AI Non-Delegation Doctrine's three failure modes. It records who held commit authority, what became binding, and what would have prevented it. Submissions contribute to the anonymised evidence base published on this site.

This is not legal advice and does not constitute a formal complaint. Warrentor examines whether authority was properly exercised. If you need legal representation, consult a qualified lawyer.

Section 1 of 5 · The Event

Tell us about the event

Describe what happened in your own words. No technical knowledge required.

One line. Enough for a reporter to understand the case.

Section 2 of 5 · Primary Failure Mode

Which failure mode applies?

Select the single mode that most accurately describes this incident. If multiple modes are present, select the one operative at the moment of binding consequence.

Section 3 of 5 · Commit Authority

Who held commit authority?

The commit point is the moment the decision became binding. Identifying it precisely is the purpose of this section.

What type of action made the decision binding? This identifies the precise moment authority was — or was not — exercised.

Not published. Allows Warrentor to verify submissions on request.

Section 4 of 5 · Outcome & Prevention

What became binding — and what would have stopped it?

This section converts the incident into verifiable, usable evidence.

How confident are you in the accuracy of the information above?
