Who says the agent is allowed to do this?
A model can guess. A payment or a credit decision cannot. Someone has to decide before the real system is touched.
The useful question is not “was the model aligned?” It is: was this action allowed, under the rules you have, at the moment it tried to run?
Nexus checks that before the agent reaches the system. Risky steps go to a named person, with a written reason. You keep a record of yes and no.
The same check works anywhere an agent can do something you cannot undo in a chat window. Your core systems stay.
