AI Automation Standard
Which step of a process goes to a program, a pipeline with an LLM step, an agent, or a human — and what separates a production system from an abandoned prototype. Eight questions, a task card, a production contour.

“AI” in the name is about the era, not about putting AI into every step: the standard forbids AI as often as it assigns it.
The standard is currently written in Russian; an English translation is planned.
