arXiv:2610.02664v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon agents are now playing an increasingly significant role in assisting humans with complex problem-solving. However, it is exactly their extended interaction history that introduces an underexplored execution-safety concern. Under benign interaction conditions, an agent may execute an action that violates a safety constraint specified many turns earlier. We term this failure mode Governance Hazard from Overlooked Safety Constraints across Turns (GHOST), which may cause irreversible damage. Our experiments reveal that GHOST events are n
