TL;DR

OpenAI's agent documentation puts governance into architecture.

MSM Perspective

Mainstream coverage supplies the document trail but often misses the operational consequence.

X Perspective

X searches did not yield content-verified status text, so the article leaves social reaction unquoted.

OpenAI's agent documentation puts governance into architecture. Its sandbox guide separates the harness from the execution environment, leaving approvals, secrets and auditability outside model-directed compute. [1]\n\nThat distinction turns a developer note into a platform-law story. The agent may act inside a sandbox, but the enterprise decides what enters, what leaves and who reviews the work. [1] [2]
