Level 1
Can comment on PRs only
Level 2
Agent communicates via multiple channels (Slack, Linear, email, docs portal) appropriate to audience. Outbound communication passes through at least one structural safety layer: allowlist of recipients and channels, no-PII content filter at send boundary, dry-run-by-default with explicit send confirmation, rate limiting, or human approval for sensitive categories
Level 3
Communication patterns tracked; message quality rated by recipients; templates evolve from feedback. Safety-layer gaps detected from near-misses feed back into layer refinement
