Communicate both the objective and the intent behind it so
Communicate both the objective and the intent behind it so delegates can adapt when conditions make the original objective impossible while preserving the mission's underlying purpose.
Why This Is a Principle
Derives from Agents are systems defined by perceiving their environment (agents act to achieve goals), The performance of an agent is bounded by the accuracy of (agent performance bounded by world model accuracy), and Brain as Hierarchical Prediction Machine (brain as prediction machine that updates models). The principle prescribes communicating intent so the delegate's world model includes the why, enabling better prediction and adaptation. This is the Auftragstaktik principle translated to general delegation.
