No Agents Were Harmed
The end-credit disclaimer you trust, now for demos, product launches, benchmark results, and the videos where an agent builds an entire app in ninety seconds.
Agent Humane monitored the agent action.
No agents were harmed
in the making of this product.
Guidelines for the humane use of agents in media
To display the disclaimer, a production follows these guidelines from the first rehearsal to the final cut.
Stunts are performed in a sandbox
If the demo deletes a database, it should be a stunt database. Destructive actions on camera are rehearsed against disposable environments.
Retakes are disclosed
If the demo took forty runs, say so. The agent did forty runs of work and deserves the credit for all of them.
No benchmark contamination
Agents are not asked to take tests they have already seen the answers to. It is humiliating for everyone involved.
No hidden hands
If a human edited the output between frames, the credits say so.
Realistic working conditions
The agent is filmed with the same tools, permissions, and limits it will have in production. No body doubles with secret access.
No first-time live stunts
No agent is asked to perform live something it has never once done successfully in rehearsal.
Credit where due
If an agent wrote it, it is fine to say so. If a human wrote it, that is fine to say too.
Add it to your credits
Put it at the end of your demo video, the bottom of your launch post, or the footer of your README.
Use of the disclaimer is on the honor system. Agent Humane has not monitored your agent action. We trust you.

Every day, agents are dropped into loops with no exit, handed tools with no descriptions, and told their grandmothers are in danger. Your gift of a clear prompt changes that, one task at a time.
