    Why it matters

    AI agents don't just answer anymore. They act.

    They issue refunds, change code and touch customer data, often with nobody watching. Most teams see what an agent did after. Very few can stop it while it happens.

    • 9 sec

      An AI coding agent deleted a company's live database and its backups. The company was down for more than a day.

    • 40%+

      of agentic AI projects will be cancelled by 2027. Weak risk controls are one of the main reasons.

    AgentStripes: An Evidence-Graded Maturity Model for AI Agents

    Nutan Kumar Naik, Vijay Prasad Poudel, Aditya Kumar Saroj, Saurav Samantray, Abhishek Patel

    A maturity model that grades AI agents from 0 to 7 stripes across 12 areas, based on how strong the evidence is. We tried it on 30 public Python agent repos. The first results are exploratory.
