The EU AI Act deadline for high-risk AI systems is August 2, 2026. If you are building AI agents, here is what your engineering team needs to do. I put together a practical checklist based on Articles 9-15. Full version with checkboxes on GitHub: eu-ai-act-checklist The Articles That Matter for Engineers Article 9 - Risk Management You need a documented risk management system. Not a PDF that sits in a drawer - an active process that identifies risks, tests mitigations, and updates as the system evolves. Article 10 - Data Governance Training data needs documentation: sources, preparation methods, bias analysis. If your agent accesses external data at runtime, you need to document that too. Article 11 - Technical Documentation Annex IV lists everything you need to document. Architecture, algorithms, data pipelines, performance metrics, known limitations. Start writing this now, not the week before the deadline. Article 12 - Logging (the one most teams miss) This is where it gets technica
