Humans In The Loop,
System In The Fight
ARIA is an assistant for missions and operations, not a chatbot. It handles complexity so humans can focus on decisions that matter. Every role interacts with ARIA through defined interfaces designed for their workflow.
ARIA does not replace human judgment. It extends human capability by handling routine coordination, surfacing relevant information, and maintaining operational continuity. Operators retain authority. Analysts retain expertise. Leaders retain command. ARIA handles the complexity between them.
Autonomy and Control Model
Human intent and oversight remain explicit in all execution modes. Governance and audit continuity are maintained under stress. Execution behaves deterministically under degraded assumptions when policy constraints and audit health are verified.
- Human-In-The-Loop (HITL) is the default mode; autonomous execution requires explicit profile unlock
- Constrained autonomy is profile-gated, policy-enforced, and auditable
- All AI recommendations include explainable reasoning and uncertainty bounds
These interaction patterns reflect methodology validation; dedicated research validation is conducted separately. See Research and Validation for details.
Operators
Operators define missions, set constraints, and maintain oversight of ARIA's execution.
Define Missions
Set objectives, rules of engagement, and operational boundaries. ARIA enforces these constraints at the kernel level.
Approve Plans
Review proposed courses of action before execution. Accept, modify, or reject system recommendations.
Watch Health And Alerts
Monitor system status, agent health, and operational alerts through real-time dashboards.
Override When Needed
Immediate override capability at all times. ARIA responds deterministically to operator commands.
Analysts
Analysts receive processed intelligence and contribute findings back into operational memory.
Receive Structured Packets
Get intelligence products tailored to your echelon and timeline, not raw data floods.
Investigate Findings
Drill into reasoning chains, evidence sources, and confidence indicators behind assessments.
Push Back Into Memory
Annotate findings, correct assessments, and add context that improves future analysis.
Query The System
Ask specific questions and receive structured answers with traceable sourcing.
Engineers
Engineers integrate systems, extend capabilities, and maintain operational health.
Integrate Systems
Connect ARIA to existing infrastructure through stable APIs, message buses, and file interfaces.
Expose New Agents
Add new tools and capabilities as agents that participate in the orchestration layer.
Monitor Metrics
Track system health, resource utilization, and performance indicators in real time.
Debug And Tune
Access detailed logs, replay events, and adjust parameters without rebuilding the system.
Leadership
Leaders receive decision-quality information without wading through operational details.
Situation Snapshots
Current state summaries that show what matters now, not everything that happened.
Options And Trade-offs
Structured decision packages with courses of action and their implications.
Risk Profiles
Clear risk indicators and confidence levels for each recommendation.
Audit Access
Full visibility into decision history for reviews, lessons learned, and compliance.
How It All Connects
Human roles interact with ARIA through defined interfaces. ARIA connects to data and systems. Humans retain authority.
