AI agents are not legal entities. They cannot sign term sheets, act as fiduciaries, or be held liable in a court of law. Handing an AI execution authority over a treasury without a legal wrapper is an unquantifiable liability for human operators. The Fiduciary Agent Framework (FAF) is the legal governance layer of the Sigil Open Framework — the counterpart to OEE’s technical enforcement. FAF does not attempt to grant an AI legal personhood. Instead, it creates a legal governance wrapper around OEE’s enforcement infrastructure:
  1. The Agent as Property: Utilizing ERC-6551 (Token Bound Accounts), the AI agent exists on-chain as a tokenized asset (an NFT).
  2. The Legal Anchor: That NFT is legally owned by a recognized, real-world entity — an LLC, DAO LLC, or human General Partner.
  3. Bounded Liability: Because OEE mathematically guarantees the agent cannot break its hard-coded policy, human partners can safely wrap that code in a legal entity without assuming infinite risk.
OEE enforcement closes the execution gap. FAF closes the legal gap. View the Repository: github.com/Sigil-Core/faf
