Telecom AI agent · CPNI certification
CPNI Certification AI Agent
Put the evidence behind the annual 47 CFR 64.2009(e) certificate where an officer can read it — the procedures as configured, the complaints, the data-broker actions — and let that officer sign.

What this agent does
Drafts the statement, not the certification
In
- 01
A caller asks for call detail, and the password that gates it must not be prompted with account information.
- 02
A caller has no password, and § 64.2010(b) leaves only the address and number of record.
Reason
- 03
An address of record changes, and the § 64.2010(f)(1) notice must not reveal it or go to it.
- 04
A customer walks into a store, and § 64.2010(d) wants a valid photo ID that matches the account.
- 05
A password reset falls back, and the back-up method may not prompt for account information either.
Decide
- 06
A complaint about unauthorized release is logged, and its categories come from the form, not the rule.
- 07
A location record is disclosed, and the April 2024 forfeitures ran on § 64.2007(b) and § 64.2010(a).
Out
- 08
A year closes, and the certificate is due with the Enforcement Bureau on or before 1 March.
- 09
Execute write actions only inside the approval boundaries agreed during implementation.
Product statement
The agent assembles and reconciles; a named officer states personal knowledge, signs the certificate and files it, and the carrier answers.
Example workflow
One procedure, evidence to filing
- 1Procedure evidence receivedAuthentication configuration, notification logs or complaint records
- 2Channel coverage assembledPhone, online, retail and back-up paths, each tied to the § 64.2010 paragraph it answers to
- 3Statement draftedThe certificate, the statement, the data-broker actions and the complaint summary
- 4Controls appliedCoverage checks, evidence-sufficiency checks, date checks and completeness confidence
No human action required
Stages 1 to 4 run unaided, and nothing is certified at any of them — the agent is drafting, and the compliance lane opens at the completeness gate.
Goes to the certifying officer to sign.
Adds a regulatory counsel read first.
Compliance review
The draft is held with its evidence, its gaps and the channels they sit in.
Sign and file · Append evidence · Send to counsel
Filed — by a named officer
- 6Procedure and case records updatedOnly where write access and records policy allow it
- 7Outcome evaluatedEvidence completeness, channel coverage, counsel corrections and what review found
Corrections
Each counsel correction is counted in the evaluation.
What should not run autonomously
Human approval stays in control
Outside the boundary — human approval required
8 items
- Stating personal knowledge under 47 CFR 64.2009(e).
- Signing or filing the annual certificate.
- Asserting the carrier is, or is not, in compliance.
- Deciding that an operating procedure is adequate.
Automation boundary
Agent acts unaided
- ✓Assemble the procedure evidence and name the channel it governs.
- ✓Bind each configured challenge to the § 64.2010 paragraph behind it.
- ✓Sort the complaint log to the categories the Commission form names.
- ✓Draft the accompanying statement against what the procedures do.
Nothing is signed or filed except by a named officer, inside the agreed boundaries.
- Judging a complaint outside the unauthorized-release scope.
- Telling a customer their CPNI was handled lawfully.
- Deciding what an action against a data broker achieved.
- Changes to authentication rules or notification templates.
Example output
One procedure, annotated
Our customer-support agent runs the challenge on the call; this record is the evidence that it is adequate.

As received
Taken from the live channel configuration and the notification log — it reaches as far as the logs do.
What the record holds
- Password-rule evidence
- Notification records
- Complaint log entries
Why no adequacy call here
Adequacy is the officer test under 47 CFR 64.2009(e), not a model output.
What the score decides
Below the configured threshold the draft picks up a counsel read before the officer sees it.

Where AI adds value
The same four claims, placed at the point in the workflow where each one applies.
Where the value lands
Value 01 – 04
Every procedure
From the channel that runs it
Where the certification is used
Our fraud and SIM-swap agent scores a request against the challenge set your officer certified; this page holds that certification.
Personal knowledge, or none
47 CFR 64.2009(e) contemplates a statement that the carrier is not in compliance, so no draft asserts compliance the procedures do not carry.
What was found, and what was not
Rehearing en banc was granted on 31 July 2026, vacating the decision that upheld the 2024 amendments, and no enforcement of § 64.2009(e) was found.
Build an evidence trail
The procedure, the channel it governs and the officer who certified stay on the record.
Integrations
Typical integrations
Five system groups connect to the same agent. Which of them are in scope is decided in discovery.

- Enforcement Bureau records
Authentication systems
- IVR
- CRM
- retail counter
- Self-service and app login
Customer records

- address of record
- Notification logs
Agent
CPNI certification evidence

- Drafts the statement
- Holds for the officer
Complaint and case systems
- CRM
- ticketing
- Data-broker action files
Observability & evaluation
- OpenTelemetry

Integration availability depends on the client's existing systems and API access.
Agent controls
Six meshes between the model and the certificate
Six meshes, the coarsest of them first. What drops through every one is set out in the map below.
L6 · Outermost — last line of defence
Inward → L1 · closest to the model
- L1 – L2
- Test whether a draft may stand
- L3
- Puts the signature in a person's hands
- L4 – L5
- Keep the procedure and the evidence behind it
- L6
- Holds the certificate undrafted when signals degrade
How Nestack evaluates it
Evaluate the whole assembly — not only the statement that comes out.
Coverage runs the whole depth of the workflow, and every layer is cut by slice.
Surface — the certificate an officer signs
- E1Final-output evaluationDid the draft record the evidence behind each procedure?
- E2Step-level evaluationDid the agent read the right channel, the right paragraph and the live configuration?
- E3Tool evaluationDid it read and write the correct procedure record and the correct complaint?
- E4Confidence calibrationDo low-confidence drafts actually attract more counsel corrections?
- E5Slice evaluationHow does performance change across specific customer channels?
- E6Business outcomeHow many drafts needed a correction before the officer signed?

Silent procedure regression
A configuration change moves the procedure, not the record.
Stage tracks

- Sev-3 · source degrades, draft holds unsigned
Affected slices
One channel absorbs the corrections
A channel-level procedure-evidence figure can read clean while one channel carries most of the corrections. Nestack reports the counsel-correction rate by channel, not only in total.
Slice performance — reported separately, not only in aggregate
Illustrative example| Slice | Failure rate | Lift | Lift vs. threshold | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Call detail over the phone | 10.1% | 3.7× | Review | |
| Online account access | 7.4% | 2.7× | Review | |
| Retail counter identification | 4.6% | 1.7× | Watch | |
| Business accounts under contract | 1.8% | 0.7× | Normal |
Bar: counsel-correction-rate lift vs. contracted-business-account baseline · scale 0–4.0× · tick marks the 2.0× review threshold
2 of 4 slices over threshold
Evidence-linked improvement
What an unevidenced procedure costs
A cycle closes when the unevidenced procedure is a regression case. That suite is what the next certificate drafted is measured against.
Improvement cycle · five stages
Switchback — the path turns at Improve and returns at Learn
- 01
Detect
Counsel-correction rate rises in one channel.
- 02
Diagnose
The password rule that had been written down once and never read against a call is read back until one cause remains.
- 03
Improve
The change ships numbered, and the procedures that forced it ride with it.
- 04
Verify
Nothing releases while one touched channel case is still red.
- 05
Learn
It is kept permanently, and the authentication rules move in the same commit.
Learn → Detect
The return edge. The next statement is measured against a suite one case longer.

- Reading the band
- Each bar spans only the weeks its own work is named for. The fifth week doubles because the work does.
- At the end of W6
- Validation closes on live procedures, and Agent Care picks up the watch.
- Duration
- Six-week plan shown · typical delivery 4–6 weeks depending on scope confirmed in discovery.
Next step · Telecom AI agent
Build a CPNI certification agent around the evidence an officer has to hold.
Show us how a caller reaches call detail today and who signs on 1 March. If your password rule can be satisfied by what a caller reads off a bill, then the statement has to say so. A forfeiture needs no jury after 4 June 2026, and a § 222 scope petition stayed pending.
