Trust Infrastructure

Agent Authorization & Trust Protocols

Make an agent’s permission narrower than its capability.

Research & architecture

Architecture & roadmap

Who it helps and why

Enterprise architects, governance teams, platform builders and ecosystem partners.

An agent may be able to call a tool without being authorized to do so. Protocol research makes actor, organization, scope and intervention requirements explicit.

The Trust Infrastructure roadmap connects bounded evidence and cross-party authority. Profiles, passports, handshakes and network participation have distinct roles. The Handshake demonstrates a simulation; an architecture engagement can define the requirements for a particular use.

What is included in the work

  1. Identity-bound authorization scope.
  2. Tool, data and action constraints.
  3. Audit, revocation and human intervention design.

FAQ

Can Agent Authorization & Trust Protocols issue or authorize something through this page?

No. This is architecture and research; the responsible runtime and a separate release are required.

How do we establish the right scope?

Describe the agent, delegated work, allowed tools and responsible principal. Bring any procurement, confidentiality, language and accessibility requirements to the scoping conversation. Record the agreed deliverables and responsibilities in the order.
