arXiv 2608.05884 defines the APV as a task-conditioned abstraction for tracking persistent deployed agent instances that span multiple components and outlive any single incident. One posture produces different runtime manifestations across tasks; an APV links them to the invariant posture and stays open until authority is narrowed, a control is added, risk is accepted, or closure is verified. It distinguishes APVs from CVE-addressable product defects, OWASP Excessive Agency, and the runtime authorization-execution gap, and ships six recurring patterns, a lifecycle, a minimum record schema and a control-and-closure matrix. Usable today as a template if you're trying to file agent permission sprawl somewhere other than a wiki page.
