Hardware-Enforced Agentic GenAI Workflow Orchestrator with Cryptographic Ethical Guardrails and Human-in-the-Loop Escalation for Autonomous Clinical Operations

A hardware-anchored orchestration system for autonomous GenAI agents in clinical settings, implementable in ASIC or FPGA fabric to ensure deterministic enforcement independent of software execution layers. The system utilizes a hardware-isolated ethical supervisor—comprising a HSM or TPM—to monitor agentic workflows against human-configured safety thresholds stored in an ethical guardrail manifest in a silicon vault. Hardware-based logic gates detect statistically anomalous token-level entropy as a causal indicator of hallucination, and bias monitors evaluate equity thresholds against manifest-defined fairness indices. If a safety breach is detected, a hardwired interlock circuit asserts a non-maskable interrupt to block the agent's output before it is committed to the clinical record. The architecture supports multi-agent quorum verification and cryptographic provenance anchoring, ensuring autonomous agentic actions remain compliant with clinical regulatory standards via hardware-verified human oversight and zero-knowledge compliance verification.
