hand-a-live-link-over-and-keep-checking-it

# Hand a live link over and keep checking it ## What it does Hands the running link to whoever administers the tool, with the flow record, the credentials and the date it is next checked, and reads it again on that cadence to see it still carries. ## Where it happens The agent does this in two activities across two reference processes. Each one names the activity as that process words it. - **Check the Links Still Carry** - `ref/rev/administer-a-tool`, activity 10 - [Administer a Tool](../../../../processes/revenue-operations/administer-a-tool.md) - **Hand It to the Administrator** - `ref/rev/integrate-a-tool`, activity 15 - [Integrate a Tool](../../../../processes/revenue-operations/integrate-a-tool.md) ## What to record Per link: the systems either side with the person who owns each, the agreed flows at a version naming every field, its direction, its cadence and what starts the move, and the system of record per field with who decided where the owners could not agree. The known set moved through the link with the counts on both sides, field by field, and every difference. The failure test, saying what the link retried, duplicated, dropped and queued when it was broken on purpose. The cleared review with the date it was signed and every finding accepted rather than fixed. The date and hour it went live, and the way back as it was written down before the switch. The first runs and the reconciled counts, dated, with the reason behind every difference where one is known. The record of what flows where at its version, naming the fields it does not yet cover. When a link stops, what it was carrying and where that now comes from. That contract covers every activity this abstract agent takes on, and it is repeated in `com.agentcatalog.agent/RECORDS.md`. What the abstract agent does not do is in `com.agentcatalog.agent/NOT.md`.
