A staged classification of increasing agent autonomy, ordering arrangements from fully human-controlled through to agent-autonomous with a reserved human veto; a superordinate ordinal scheme used to locate cases rather than a countable occurrence.
Superordinate framework term; not operationalized as a per-interaction event. It provides an ordered set of autonomy levels onto which specific delegation arrangements are classified; measurement attaches to placing a case on the ladder (see Delegation Depth), not to counting the ladder itself.
Proposed measurement protocol (not yet empirically validated): Not directly measured; superordinate term.
