Issue Tracking & Validation Agent
Tracks audit findings to closure and validates remediation evidence.
Watches every open finding, chases the owner agents, and on a remediation claim checks that the evidence supports closure. Bounces weak evidence back, escalates overdue findings with an aging report, and routes closure recommendations to a reviewing audit agent that re-checks them, with the accountable audit executive signing the closure.
