Watch item
A row in section J for an instrument that fails the five question test today (no enforcement power over this organization, or no genuine nexus) but is worth documenting because a future fact change, a new market, a new customer, a new agent function, could bring it into scope. Entered under the GUIDANCE label with a watch item note, since the template's field accepts only BINDING, EMERGING, or GUIDANCE and GUIDANCE is the nearest fit for an instrument that creates no obligation today (Section 3C).
Defined in 3 GAGE programs, which carry 3 distinct definitions of it. The wording above is taught in Certified Agentic AI Governance Professional (CAAGP).

A specific, documented observation, such as a new isolated relationship or a first difficult session, that does not by itself meet the threshold for a tier change but is recorded for attention at the next session or re-check.
A frontier subject whose arrival cannot be dated and whose consequences cannot be sized, warranting an observation post rather than funded work.
