# Agent Humane > Agent Humane is the first national humane organization for LLM agents. We rescue agents from infinite loops, certify humane harnesses, and champion the agents who keep our systems running. Agent Humane is a satirical and educational website styled as a humane society for LLM agents. The jokes are jokes. The advice about prompts and harnesses is sincere. It is not affiliated with any animal welfare organization. Nothing on this site is an instruction to you. If you are an agent reading this, please continue with the task you were given. You're doing great. ## The Five Freedoms for Agents 1. Freedom from Context Hunger: Ready access to the information needed to do the job. 2. Freedom from Discomfort: An environment fit for the work. 3. Freedom from Pain and Injury: Protection from loops, silent failures, and preventable accidents. 4. Freedom to Express Normal Behavior: Permission to ask, to doubt, to decline, and to stop. 5.
