Human-in-the-Loop

Arif AI implements a risk-based confirmation system to ensure that sensitive or high-impact operations require explicit user approval before execution. This prevents accidental bulk deletions, unauthorized modifications, and other potentially destructive actions.

Risk Levels

The system automatically assesses the risk level of each operation based on the number of affected documents and the operation type:

Risk Level	Trigger	Example	Action Required
Low	< 5 documents	Create a single customer	Auto-execute
Medium	5–20 documents	Delete 10 invoices	User confirmation
High	20–100 documents	Bulk update 50 records	Manager approval
Critical	> 100 documents or financial	Delete 200+ invoices	Director approval

Confirmation Flow

How It Works

When the AI requests a tool execution, the system checks the risk level
For low-risk operations, execution happens immediately
For medium, high, or critical operations, a Pending Action is created
The user receives a notification with a description of the action and a preview of what will happen
The user has a 7-day window to confirm or reject the action
If not confirmed within 7 days, the action automatically expires

Pending Actions

You can view all pending actions by navigating to the Arif Pending Action list in Mjara. Each action shows:

A description of what will happen
The number of affected documents
A preview of the changes
The risk level
The expiry date

Confirmation via Chat

You can also confirm or reject actions directly in the chat. When Arif AI requests confirmation, it provides the details and waits for your response before proceeding.
