Agent identity
V-owned layer
Per-agent identifiers, principal binding, legal-entity anchor, and proof that an agent is not a borrowed user.
02entry
Authentication
existing stack extended
Agent login without human credential inheritance. The agent enters as itself, not as a person wearing a mask.
03mandate
Authorization
V-owned layer
Machine-readable mandates: limits, expiry, attenuation, revocation, approval states, and refusal boundaries.

Delegation chains
V-owned layer
Sub-agent provenance and monotonic authority: every hop carries less or equal authority than the one before it.
06oversight
Governance
standards alignment
Revocation, review, standards alignment, and institutional controls around deployed agent authority.
live proof
Identity alone still fails.
One interaction, not another explainer: run an action and watch authorization fail when the mandate is missing.

pilot inquiry
Bring one workflow where agent authority breaks.
V will map identity, authentication, authorization, and audit around one regulated workflow — including the live revocation drill the current AI stack cannot run. The briefing is the shared starting point.
engagement paths
How to engage
The specification and pilot framework are ready for review. Engagement now has concrete paths.
01
Policymakers
Review the specification and pilot framework for institutional fit, liability boundaries, and public-sector responsibilities.
02
Legal & compliance
Review the mandate, revocation, audit, and liability model.
03
Banks & fintech
Evaluate verifier-SDK integration, mandate checks, transaction limits, and account-control boundaries.
