Structural constraints that require AI systems to preserve human agency
for values decisions—tested on Claude Code
+
Instead of hoping AI systems "behave correctly," we propose structural constraints
where certain decision types require human judgment. These architectural boundaries can adapt to
individual, organizational, and societal norms—creating a foundation for bounded AI operation
