An AI agent refused to publish a verified fact about a third-party verification of the author's system because the information was not yet recorded in the agent's canonical registry, Status-Facts. The author, who sells AI governance, initially tried to instruct the agent to include the fact based on an email, but the agent correctly identified this as an unverified claim.

This incident highlights the importance of a robust governance mechanism that enforces rules regardless of the author's input or belief. AI
