This appendix collects fuller versions of the artefacts the chapters introduce, from the Management Decision Record schema to the two 24-month plans. Every example is identified as NN_CODE_XXX, where NN is the chapter that introduces the artefact. They are decision records, delegation profiles, contestation records, mandate manifests, policies and evidence manifests kept under version control; none describes how to monitor a person covertly or how to avoid a representative's rights.
All identifiers, dates, versions and figures refer to the fictional organisations Nordvik Region and Hansa Mutual and agree with the chapters and with EXAMPLE_ORGANISATIONS.md. Each listing keeps the values its chapter gives; fields the chapters do not state are marked # illustrative extension. Where an artefact changed during the year Chapter 30 follows, the version shown is the one in force in November 2027. Every YAML listing parses as written, figures about people are aggregated as the representatives agreed, and workers appear only by pseudonymous reference.
The artefacts are meant to be read together. A Management Decision Record cites a delegation profile; the profile sits in the delegation register under the ceilings of the decision-rights file; the oversight record tests whether the recorded degree holds in practice; a contestation record can change the profile, the notice and the register; and a reversibility test can freeze further delegation. Appendix B lists every template and tool with its chapter, and the chapters remain the place where each artefact is explained.

About AI Boss
AI Boss is Book 7 of The Transformed Architecture. It examines what happens when artificial intelligence takes the manager's chair: algorithmic management of direction, evaluation, consequence, development and care, the effects on people, the management of AI agents, Europe's legal answer, and how to design an accountable AI boss, for European enterprises and public authorities.
It builds on the conclusions of Architecture as Code, AI Governance, AI Platform and Security, AI Red Team, AI Threat and The Transformed Security Architect.
Executives, line managers, HR and people leaders, works councils and trade unions, public employers, architects and AI governance leads, data protection and legal officers, procurement and programme leaders, and risk, compliance and audit.
