EU AI Act Article 50 transparency becomes operational for agents when it is connected to a protected action, a policy decision, and evidence a reviewer can inspect.

Evidence pattern

Evidence itemWhy it helps
Actor and tenantShows which human, agent, customer, or workspace the action belonged to.
Tool and arguments summaryShows the actual side effect under review without storing unnecessary sensitive content.
Policy versionShows which rule set was active at decision time.
Verdict and reviewerProduces disclosure decisions tied to AI interaction and generated content.

Implementation note

Do not wait for a quarterly evidence scramble. Generate the action record at the same point that allows, denies, or pauses the action.
