Trust Ladder <mv-trust-ladder>
Autonomía gradual ganada con un historial, tanto para agentes de IA, automatizaciones e integraciones como para nuevos miembros del equipo. Cada capacidad (“Reembolsar a clientes”, “Desplegar en staging”, “Aprobar gastos”) es una fila de una matriz de confianza cuyos peldaños ascendentes muestran su nivel en su propia escalera (Solo sugerir → Actuar con aprobación → Actuar e informar → Actuar en silencio por debajo de 50 $), y cada nivel indica lo que hace falta para llegar: tantas aprobaciones seguidas, un número mínimo de acciones, una tasa de aprobación, días en el nivel actual, acciones revertidas permitidas. Al abrir una fila se muestra la escalera como un tramo de escalones con el paso actual, una lista de comprobación de los criterios del siguiente nivel con valores y barras (“14 de 20”, “9 de 14 días”) y lo que falta en lenguaje claro (“Aún falta: 6 aprobaciones seguidas más y 5 días más”), una franja de historial cuya cola ininterrumpida es la racha, un recuento y una tabla de acciones recientes con su resultado (aprobada, conservada, editada, rechazada, revertida) y su revisor. record() introduce los resultados; una acción revertida sugiere de inmediato bajar un nivel (“¿Bajar a Actuar con aprobación hasta que el historial vuelva a estar limpio?”) o, con auto-demote, lo hace; “Mantener el nivel, reiniciar el recuento” reinicia la ventana en su lugar. El ascenso siempre es decisión de una persona con require-owner (solo se le ofrece al responsable de la capacidad, nunca es automático), y “Ascender ahora” antes de completar el historial pide confirmación y enumera lo que falta. mv-promote y mv-demote son cancelables y aceptan waitUntil(promise) para tu servidor: el componente recomienda, tu app hace cumplir. Vista compacta para paneles; todos los textos se pueden sustituir.

When to use
- An AI agent or automation should earn more autonomy per task from its approved, edited and reverted actions
- A settings page must show what an assistant may do on its own today and what it takes to unlock the next level
- New team members or junior approvers get wider rights step by step, based on a reviewed track record
- A reverted action by a bot or integration should immediately prompt a human to reduce its autonomy
Avoid when
- Each critical action needs a second person to co-sign it, whatever the track record → use Two-Key instead
- A few one-off exceptions to a rule are budgeted per period rather than earned over time → use Pass Card instead
- Rights are static roles or permissions set by an admin, with no track record behind them: a plain settings table is clearer

</div>Referencia cultural
El principito, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1943, libro). El zorro explica que domesticar requiere paciencia: sentarse cada día un poco más cerca, a la misma hora, para que la confianza se construya paso a paso, nunca de golpe. En la interfaz, cada capacidad sube por una escalera de autonomía solo a medida que se acumula su historial (tantas acciones aprobadas seguidas, tantos días), una persona concede cada peldaño, y una promesa rota supone bajar un escalón y volver a empezar la cuenta.
API
Attributes
| Name | Tipo | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
label | string | Autonomy | Heading of the matrix (who or what is being trusted: “Support assistant”, “Deploy bot”, “Elena Petrova · Junior approver”). Also names the group for assistive tech. |
user | string | Name of the person viewing. With require-owner, promotions are only offered when it matches the capability’s owner; everyone can still step a capability down. | |
require-owner | boolean | Promotion is always a person’s decision: auto-promote is ignored, promote({ reason: "criteria" }) is refused, and the Promote button is disabled (with an explanation) for anyone but the owner. | |
auto-promote | boolean | When a record() completes the next level’s criteria, promote automatically (mv-promote with reason "criteria", still cancelable). Ignored with require-owner. | |
auto-demote | boolean | A reverted action steps the capability down right away (mv-demote with reason "reverted", cancelable) instead of only suggesting it. | |
compact | boolean | Dense matrix for dashboards and side panels: name, rungs and status only; rows still open for details. | |
evidence-limit | number | 5 | Recent actions shown in the table before “Show all”. |
heading-level | number (2-5) | 3 | Heading level of each capability row (section titles inside use the next level). |
locale | string | en-US | Locale for dates, times and lists. |
Properties
| Name | Tipo | Description |
|---|---|---|
capabilities | Array<{ id, label, owner?, level, since?, resetAt?, levels?, evidence[], open? }> | The rows. level = id (or index) of the current level; since = when it was reached; evidence = [{ id?, at, title, outcome: "approved" | "kept" | "edited" | "rejected" | "reverted", by?, note? }]. Times accept Date, epoch ms, ISO strings or relative offsets ("-3d", "-5h", "now"). Reading it returns the live state, including status. Also accepted as a <script type="application/json"> child: { levels, capabilities }. |
levels | Array<{ id, label, description?, criteria? }> | Default ladder for capabilities without their own levels, lowest first. criteria (to reach that level, counted since the current level was reached or the count restarted): streak (approved or kept in a row), actions, approvalRate (0-1 or %), days, maxReverted. Defaults: Suggest only → Act with approval → Act and report → Act silently. |
strings | Partial<Record<string, string>> | Overrides for every visible text and announcement (English defaults), e.g. statusReady, promote ({level}), stepDown, alertDemote ({action}, {when}, {level}), keep, ownerOnly ({owner}), critStreak, needStreak ({n}). |
Methods
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
record(id, { title, outcome, at?, by?, note? }) | Adds an outcome to a capability’s record, re-evaluates it and emits mv-trust-evidence. A reverted action raises the step-down suggestion (or demotes with auto-demote). Returns the stored entry, or null. |
promote(id, { reason? }) | One level up. Emits the cancelable mv-promote; resolves true once applied (after any waitUntil promises). Early promotions are allowed from code; detail.early and detail.unmet say what was missing. |
demote(id, { to?, reason?, trigger? }) | One level down (or to level id/index to). Emits the cancelable mv-demote; resolves true once applied. |
keep(id) | Keeps the level after a reverted action and restarts the count (the criteria window starts now). Emits the cancelable mv-demote-dismiss. |
progress(id) | { level, next, status, met, ratio, criteria: [{ key, label, value, target, met, ratio, text }], stats: { streak, actions, clean, corrected, reverted, days, rate, since } }. |
expand(id) / collapse(id) / toggle(id) | Opens or closes a row’s details. |
Events
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
mv-promote | Cancelable, before a promotion. detail: { capability, label, from, to, fromLabel, toLabel, reason: "owner" | "criteria" | "api", early, unmet[], stats, user, waitUntil(promise) }. A rejected promise changes nothing and announces an error. |
mv-demote | Cancelable, before a step down. detail: { capability, label, from, to, fromLabel, toLabel, reason: "owner" | "reverted" | "api", trigger (the reverted entry, if any), user, waitUntil(promise) }. |
mv-trust-evidence | An outcome was recorded. detail: { capability, entry, status: "building" | "ready" | "demote" | "reverted" | "top", suggestion: "promote" | "demote" | null, progress }. |
mv-demote-dismiss | Cancelable: someone chose “Keep level, restart count” after a reverted action. detail: { capability, level, trigger, user }. |
mv-trust-error | A waitUntil promise rejected. detail: { capability, action: "promote" | "demote", error }. |
Content structure
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
(json) | An optional <script type="application/json"> child with { levels, capabilities } for declarative setup (ignored when the properties are set first). |
CSS classes
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
mv-trust-ladder-row | One capability (li): data-status="building | ready | demote | reverted | top", data-open, data-busy. Holds -trigger (disclosure button with -cap, -track of -rung[data-state], -level, -status, -chevron) and -detail. |
mv-trust-ladder-steps / -step | The ladder as an ordered list drawn as a staircase; each step has data-state="reached | current | next | locked" (aria-current="step" on the current one) and data-ready on a next step whose criteria are met. |
mv-trust-ladder-criteria / -criterion | Next level’s criteria: data-met, -criterion-icon, -label, -value, -bar (--_p). |
mv-trust-ladder-strip / -cell | Decorative track-record strip (aria-hidden): one cell per outcome, data-outcome, data-streak, data-before. |
mv-trust-ladder-table | Recent actions table (When, Action, Outcome, Reviewed by); rows carry data-outcome and data-before. |
mv-trust-ladder-alert / -actions / -confirm | Step-down suggestion, action bar (note + Step down / Promote) and early-promotion confirmation. |
CSS variables
| Name | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
--mv-trust-ladder-accent | var(--mv-accent) | Reached rungs and steps, streak cells, progress bars. |
--mv-trust-ladder-ready | var(--mv-success) | Met criteria and “Ready to promote”. |
--mv-trust-ladder-risk | var(--mv-danger) | Reverted actions and the step-down suggestion. |
--mv-trust-ladder-corrected | var(--mv-warning) | Edited and rejected outcomes, early-promotion confirmation. |
--mv-trust-ladder-rise | 0.625rem | Height of each stair in the ladder. |
Accessibility
The element is a group labelled by its heading; each capability is a list item whose heading contains a real disclosure <button> (aria-expanded, aria-controls) that reads the whole row in words: name, owner, current level with “Level 2 of 4”, and the status (“Ready to promote”, “Step down suggested”, “64% to next level”). The rungs and the track-record strip are aria-hidden; the same facts are always in text. The opened region is labelled by its trigger. Levels are an ordered list with the current step marked by aria-current="step" and a visible “Current level” label; reached, next (with its percentage) and locked steps are named in text too. Criteria are a list where each item says its value (“14 of 20”) and, for screen readers, “met” or “not met yet”, followed by a sentence of what is still needed. Evidence is a real table with a caption and column headers; outcomes combine an icon and a word, and rows from before the current count say so. Status never relies on color: icons, words and dashed or solid borders carry it. Promote and Step down are buttons whose names include the target level; a Promote the viewer may not use is aria-disabled and described by the “Only Priya Nair can promote” note. Early promotion opens an inline confirmation (focus moves to Cancel, Escape closes it and returns focus to Promote). While a change awaits the server the button is aria-busy and the row says “Saving…”. Changes are announced politely (“Refund customers promoted to Act and report. The count starts again at this level.”, “…is ready to promote”), a reverted action assertively; errors assertively. If a change hides the focused button, focus moves to the next sensible control in the row. Reduced motion (OS or data-motion="reduce"): the step highlight, row reveal and new-row fade are instant. Forced colors: rungs and cells get system-color borders and fills, the current step a Highlight outline.
