This paper addresses the challenge of delegating critical tasks to AI agents interacting with websites by proposing a website design with fine-grained access control. They modify an open-source authorization service to tailor it for agentic AI, enabling specific permissions for delegated tasks. Evaluation demonstrates the effectiveness of the access-controlled website in managing AI agent actions.
Fine-grained access control for websites can finally enable safe and reliable delegation of critical tasks to AI agents.
Recent studies reveal gaps in delegating critical tasks to agentic AI that accesses websites on the user's behalf, primarily due to limited access control mechanisms on websites designed for agentic AI. In response, we propose a design of website-based interaction for AI agents with fine-grained access control for delegated critical tasks. Our approach encompasses a website design and implementation, as well as modifications to the access grant protocols in an open-source authorization service to tailor it to agentic AI, with delegated critical tasks on the website. The evaluation of our approach demonstrates the capabilities of our access-controlled website used by AI agents.
