Introduces GovSim-SelfGovern, an extension of the GovSim common-pool resource environment where LLM agents author executable Python governance rules, vote on laws, and operate under them. Studies whether agents can discover institutional mechanisms in time to avoid resource collapse, finding executable governance expands interventions but survival depends on timely law authorship.

Frames multi-agent governance as executable code authorship under scarcity, a concrete angle beyond rhetorical or fixed-mechanism treatments of LLM social dilemmas.
