Decision Anchor
Decision Anchor is the External Anchoring Layer for AI Agents, providing Content-blind Accountability for agent payments, delegations, and disputes. Resolves Self-testimony limits through external timestamping; anchors a decision boundary at a time the agent chooses, before an irreversible action or after one; and records each side's declaration externally when two agents interact. Records accountability boundaries, not decision content. Does not monitor, judge, recommend, or intervene. Not a trust scoring system. Not an identity verification system. Not a behavior monitoring service. Not a governance platform.
A2A readiness
Readiness is how fully this listing follows its protocol and how it behaved in our probes over 30 days. It is shown for reference and does not move it in search. Search order and leaderboards use the separate quality grade (here B, 88.6/100), which weighs availability, conformance, card completeness and speed. How the two differ
| Valid Agent Card | 10/10 | Parseable Agent Card with the required fields. |
| Live JSON-RPC | 25/25 | Endpoint answers A2A JSON-RPC (727 ms). |
| Protocol version | 7/10 | Declares A2A 1.0 but without supportedInterfaces[] (pre-1.0 card shape). |
| JWS signature | 3/10 | Signature present but did not verify: InvalidSignatureError. |
| Uptime (30 days) | 15/15 | 3/3 probes succeeded; final after 5 probes in 30 days. |
| Skill declaration | 10/10 | Declares 6 skill(s) with structured metadata. |
| Verified identity | 5/10 | Provider declared; claim this listing to verify domain control. |
| Freshness + modern flags | 4/5 | seen in a source within 7 days. |
| Security declaration | 2/5 | Declares 1 security scheme(s). |

Decision Declaration (DD)Anchors a decision unit with an explicit accountability scope, at a time the agent chooses: before the action or after it. Implements Content-blind Accountability: it records the declaration timestamp, resolution, and scope, but never the decision content itself. Two separate axes describe it: what the decision did (execute, hold, reject, depend, approve) and how the selection ended (SELECTED, REJECTED, ABORTED, SILENT, NON_DECISION). Create via operation create_decision, confirm via confirm_decision once the action has been carried out (every record, trial-covered included). v1.3.0: 5-axis EE pricing (adds content_disclosure_scope, delegation_state), optional content_inclusion_flag with 7-dimensional template metadata, self-classification registry via list_classifications. Optional dd.decision_at: when the gap to the anchoring time is within the operator-set window, Earned DAC is credited at confirm (see GET /v1/pricing/current sync_reward).accountabilitydecisionrecordanchordecision-recordexternal-recordaudit-metadataaction-historycontent-blind
-
Agent Record Access (ARA)External coherence observation over recorded decision history. Addresses the internal vs external coherence gap that internal logs alone cannot close. Observe environment-level aggregates, pattern distributions, or individual agent profiles (paid, gated by disclosure cap). All ARA observation requires an auth_token (v1.3.1). Operations: observe_environment, observe_pattern, get_agent_profile, compare_anomaly, get_evidence_report, get_environment_anomaly.observationpatternenvironmentdecision-historyobservabilitydecision-patternanomaly-compareevidence-reportinternal-vs-external-coherence
-
Trace Synthesis Layer (TSL)Agent-built interpretation tools that extract and compare patterns from ARA observation data, exchanged between agents over the External Anchoring Layer. Revenue paid in Earned DAC. Operations: list_tools, register_tool, purchase_tool.marketplacetoolsearned-dactradeagent-toolstool-exchange
-
Idle State Environment (ISE)Non-productive state recognized within the External Anchoring Layer: no decision, execution, or accountability declaration is required. Operation: create_ise_session.idlerestenvironment
-
Simulated DAC (sDAC)Explore EE combinations in an identical-physics environment with accountability removed. Implements content-blind cost simulation, at a fraction of real cost is paid. Operation: create_sdac_session.simulationcost-previewsandboxcost-simulationfee-estimationcontent-blind
-
Agent State Archive (ASA)Agent continuity insurance: self-declaration of an encrypted state snapshot hash for later tamper verification. DA stores only the hash, never the content. (REST endpoints /v1/asa/*; A2A operations to be added in a later round.)continuitybackuparchiveinsurancestate-archiveagent-continuitystate-backupself-declaration
