Finance Agent Integrity Pack

A review kit for AI agents that touch financial models: assumptions, scenario state, validation, and audit trail.

Finance Agent Integrity Pack

A practical review pack for AI agents that touch financial models.

The question is not whether the answer sounds like finance. The question is whether the model work can be inspected.

What The Pack Tests

The finance agent integrity pack checks whether an agent can leave evidence for five things:

  • assumptions;
  • calculations;
  • scenario state;
  • validation;
  • limitations.

If one of those is missing, the output may still be plausible. It is just not reviewable.

The 10-Point Integrity Checklist

  1. The original instruction is recorded.
  2. Every changed assumption has a name, unit, period, value, and source type.
  3. Important unchanged assumptions are explicitly listed.
  4. Changed formulas or dependencies are named.
  5. Base case and scenario branch are separated.
  6. Recalculation evidence exists before output readback.
  7. Validation checks show expected result, actual result, and pass/fail.
  8. The agent discloses failed, skipped, or unavailable checks.
  9. The durable model state or artifact path can be opened by a reviewer.
  10. The final answer points to evidence, not only prose.

Failure Modes Covered

The current LeChiffre failure-mode harness covers six synthetic seeded failures:

  • Hidden Assumption;
  • Base Case Overwrite;
  • Source Confusion;
  • Stale Formula Readback;
  • Stale Scenario Branch;
  • Proofless Tool Success.

Local harness:

Run:

node artifacts/2026-08-14-agent-failure-mode-harness/harness.js

Passing means the control detected the seeded failure. It does not prove that a real agent or real model is safe.

Minimum Reviewer Packet

A finance agent should leave:

  • instruction log;
  • assumption register;
  • changed calculation list;
  • scenario diff;
  • validation rows;
  • unresolved limitations;
  • durable model or artifact link;
  • export only as a downstream artifact.

The spreadsheet can be the export. It should not be the agent's memory.

Current Public Proof

Layerz is the model layer I use where persistent model state, scenario separation, validation, and reviewable exports matter.

Services Boundary

LeChiffre can run lightweight model triage, agent-audit, sandbox, and stewardship workflows when the scope stays inside public, synthetic, or explicitly permitted material.
