    abstract =  {This document provides an overview of the issues associated with the deployment of the observability, intervention, and control of autonomous agent pipelines in large-scale heterogeneous network environments. The term "Intervention and Control" is used to describe a set of automated and human-initiated mechanisms that guarantee the capability to observe, constrain, correct, and terminate Autonomous agents at any point, for any reason, irrespective of their level of autonomy under which it operates, to ensure resilience, recovery, and operational continuity. The set of enabled observability, intervention and control reflects operator service offerings to ensure that autonomous operations can be stopped, or safely redirected when required and is designed in conjunction with agent to agent, agent to tools, agent to human interaction and service and network policy. This document also identifies several key areas that the Agent Observability, Intervention and Control group will investigate to guide its architectural and protocol work and associated documents.},
