Authority is the design decision, not the model
An agent is defined by what it may do without asking. We draw that line at reversibility: a step that can be undone runs unattended, a step that cannot stops at a person. ICCS is the strict version of it. Detection and grading are automatic, a policy layer of sector map and cooldown decides whether a response is warranted at all, and dispatch selects the best available drone — while launch and abort remain under operator command. Autonomy runs up to the irreversible action and no further.
