Abstract
The ODRL policy language is emerging as the de-facto standard for policy modelling data access and usage preferences, AI governance policies and data workflows in European dataspaces. The current standard has no mathematical formal semantics to describe how a system should implement policy evaluation. This has resulted in a variety of systems and tools that implement their own interpretation of the language, which limits interoperability and cannot guarantee consistent results. Based on an existing semantic model of ODRL, we formalise the problems of ODRL evaluation for the access control and monitoring scenarios, in both static and streaming settings, and we provide a novel, efficient algorithm and implementation. We present the first ODRL Evaluator with transparent formal semantics and supporting all rule types. We experimentally measure its performance, analysing different scalability dimensions related to policy complexity and size of the data on which a policy is evaluated. We compare our system with the state-of-the-art by providing a comparative review of existing ODRL evaluators, which highlights the differences in supported ODRL features and evaluation modes.
This paper proposes the Evaluation Context Protocol (ECP), an early-stage, vendor-neutral framework intended to act as a portable evaluation contract layer for agentic systems and describes an open-source reference implementation that includes adapters for LangChain, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, and PydanticAI.
It is shown that LLM-driven agents can violate this condition and introduced a canonical deployment wrapper that guarantees it for arbitrary base agents while preserving already-equivariant behaviour, and it is proved that computing canonical representations required by this construction is graph-isomorphism-hard.
ReATest is introduced, an automated approach to enhancing PaC workflows through systematic test case generation from Rego specifications, which achieves an average 35.43% reduction in test suite size and retains 64.57% of the generated test cases.

LLM agents must translate natural language into concrete actions on external tools. Most systems use JSON-based function calling or, more riskily, let models emit imperative code. We propose a GraphQL-first alternative that reframes tool use as typed, declarative program synthesis against a schema. This yields three measurable advantages. First, efficiency: a token–economy analysis shows that a single GraphQL query replaces multiple RPC calls, reducing request tokens from 63 to 32 and total operational tokens from 245 to 175 in a representative user–orders task. Second, reliability: schema validation provides deterministic, structured error diagnostics that enable self-correcting interaction loops without bespoke prompt engineering. Third, security: the schema- bounded language forms a native sandbox that eliminates arbitrary code execution pathways and reduces prompt-injection impact to a bounded query surface governed by depth/complexity limits and authorization. Because GraphQL is standardized and widely understood by general coding LLMs, the approach is model-agnostic and interoperable. We argue that GraphQL constitutes a principled, testable alternative to function calling for agentic systems, combining lower cost, stronger safety, and improved cognitive robustness.

An LLM-based prototype designed to support the application of a documented rule catalog within GitLab merge requests is presented, which demonstrates the technical feasibility of integrating rule-based governance with LLM-supported contextual interpretation in a practical GitLab workflow.
