Action Constraints
AI Summary
Action constraints are explicit rules that define what AI agents can and cannot do automatically.
Canonical Definition
Explicit encoding of permitted and forbidden actions that AI agents may take on behalf of users. Action constraints prevent unsafe automation while enabling useful interaction by clearly defining boundaries of non-binding, owner-confirmed workflows.
Extended Summary
Action Constraints define the boundaries of AI-mediated workflows. Allowed actions include inquiry, availability requests, viewing requests, follow-up questions, non-binding interest, and offer intent (sale properties). Forbidden actions include payment execution, contract signing, availability guarantees, binding offers, and PII exposure.
