# Who does what

> The operating model for running the platform and governing agents: squads, committees, AI champions, and end users.

Adoption at scale needs a clear operating model: who runs the platform, who sets policy, who validates, who builds, and who uses. You define it; the platform makes each right enforceable through [roles and permissions](/products/ai-governance/identity-access).

## The squads

Four squads keep the platform alive and industrialize use cases, backed by solution architects.

| Squad                              | Mission                                                                                                                        |
| ---------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Platform**                       | Run the platform and release management: operations, supervision, upgrades.                                                    |
| **Animation & Self-care**          | Animate the community and share assets: skills, tools, MCP, agent templates.                                                   |
| **Onboarding**                     | Frame and onboard complex use cases with the business teams.                                                                   |
| **Architecture & Recommendations** | Standards and best practices, reuse and mutualization, regulatory framing, and LLM choice (the platform stays vendor-neutral). |

## The rights, level by level

Governance runs on levels, and **each level can only tighten the one above**. Sharing and publishing rights, and guardrails, are granted centrally, not self-assigned.

* **Platform Squad**: runs and releases; sets platform guardrails and can force [hooks](/products/agent-factory/hooks) (for example data classification controls).
* **Architecture / Org admin**: sets org policy and standards, [model access](/products/ai-governance/model-governance), and org-level guardrails.
* **Committees** (compliance and security): validate the compliance criteria of an agent, approve the guardrails to activate, and grant sharing rights.
* **AI Champions**: build agents and, once validated, share them to a group or the organization.
* **Everyone**: uses agents and creates agents for themselves. By default, no one shares or publishes their own agent.

For the underlying roles, permissions, and service accounts, see [Identity & Access](/products/ai-governance/identity-access). For how the levels bound each other, see [Opening strategies](./opening-strategies).
