Glossary
Words Soxoa uses in a specific way, each defined as the site uses it and linked to the page where the idea is worked out in full.
- Agent-ready
- A software product an AI assistant can use on a signed-in user's behalf: it has a production MCP server with tools the model reads correctly, agent sign-in with limits the product sets, and listings where assistant users find tools. The agent-ready build for SaaS
- Agent sign-in
- OAuth that lets a user connect their existing account to an assistant, with a scope for each tool, so the agent acts as that user within set limits instead of with a shared API key. Actions that spend money, delete data or send a message can require confirmation in the product first. What the agent-ready build delivers
- Red line (the reviewer's markup)
- Soxoa's way of reviewing a workflow: map the real work, then mark each step as automate, keep a human reviewer, or leave manual, before anything is built. Live Build Workshop
- Leave it manual
- A deliberate mark on a workflow map that keeps a step in human hands, with the reason and a date to revisit it. It is a design decision, not a shortfall of the automation. Leave it manual: the most useful note on the drawing
- Acceptance bar
- The written test a build must pass on real examples, agreed before the build starts, so the client can hold Soxoa to criteria set in advance rather than after the results are in. The stop decision
- Stop decision
- A designed outcome of an AI Build Sprint: when the evaluation does not clear the acceptance bar, the deliverable is a written recommendation to keep the current process, narrow the problem, or stop, with the evidence attached. The stop decision
- Human review path
- The named person, and the point in the workflow, where anything that needs judgment is checked before it reaches a customer or a record. AI Build Sprint
- Named owner
- The person on the client's side who runs a system after handoff, with the operating notes and access notes to do it without Soxoa in the room. Every engagement ends with one. About Soxoa
- Fractional Chief AI Officer
- A Soxoa service name for a monthly engagement in which John Arndt acts as an organization's accountable outside AI lead. He is an outside advisor, never an officer or employee of the client. Fractional Chief AI Officer
