safe church agents
What makes church agents safe for ministry work?
Direct answer
Safe church agents are bounded agents. They can draft, search, organize, and queue work, but they do not send, publish, assign, counsel, or preach without human approval.

A safe agent has a narrow job
A visitor follow-up agent should draft visitor follow-ups. A bulletin agent should draft bulletins. A board-prep agent should collect and format facts. Narrow jobs are easier to test, explain, and audit.
A safe agent has a visible stopping point
Collie uses Pending as the stopping point. External actions land there for approval, editing, or discard before they affect a real person or external system.
A safe agent refuses protected work
Church agents should refuse counseling disclosures, crisis content, sermon generation, minors summaries, and anything that asks the system to bypass human approval.
