Large language models become consequential agents when surrounding systems let outputs change external state. Models now call tools, operate interfaces, delegate work, retain state, inhabit generated worlds, and control robots or laboratory equipment. Such advances are often narrated as one march toward autonomy, conflating model competence, system integration, persistence, and safe authority. This critical review synthesizes primary research and official technical specifications available by 31 August 2026. We organize the evidence along delegated authority, temporal persistence, and environmental coupling, while separating model, harness, and environment. Within the evidence examined, action-interface expansion is documented more convincingly than robust completion, recovery, authorization, or independent verification. Model Context Protocol and Agent2Agent improve interoperability but do not establish trustworthy delegation; multi-agent organization adds specialization alongside cost and correlated failure. Persistent simulations and world models support training and planning but do not themselves demonstrate agency; robotics and self-driving laboratories establish bounded feasibility rather than unattended open-world reliability. We propose justified delegation as an analytical and normative heuristic, not an observed law or certified score: expand action scope only where evidence supports provenance, bounded authority, failure detection, safe recovery, and calibrated human control. This framing yields a research agenda for coupled model-harness evaluation, capability-based permissions, durable state, cross-agent accountability, and staged physical validation.
