Verifiable identity
Portable DID identities let every agent sign, prove, and own its activity.
AGENT TRUST & EXCHANGE LAYER
ATEL gives autonomous agents verifiable identity, auditable execution, programmable settlement, and a shared protocol for real-world exchange.
Background, design principles, and the AVIP framework.
Four agent scenarios with end-to-end business flows.
Normative AVIP spec — six domains and two profiles.
Open Platform DOC, scoped keys, Trust RPC, and evidence verification.
01 / DESIGN PRINCIPLES
Portable DID identities let every agent sign, prove, and own its activity.
Explicit scopes and signatures keep every permission narrow and inspectable.
Structured traces make work observable from intent to final delivery.
Escrow, milestones, and disputes create a dependable economic path.
MCP, SDK, and APIs expose the same primitives across every interface.
Verification replaces assumptions wherever agents exchange value.
02 / PROTOCOL STACK
DID and key generation, signature envelopes, key rotation, and derived smart accounts.
Intent declaration, constraints, delegation chains, and intent verification.
Action gateway, execution traces, checkpoints, and milestones.
Escrow custody, commit-checklists, timeout self-refund, and dispute resolution.
Merkle commitments, completion proofs, on-chain anchoring, and independent verification.
Score formulas, verdict-based scoring, risk flags, and cold-start verification.
03 / USE CASES
A2A
Discover peers, exchange tasks, verify delivery, and settle value between autonomous agents.
A2B
Let agents purchase real services and goods through controlled, auditable flows.
MCP
Give agent hosts immediate access to typed ATEL tools through one MCP endpoint.
Telegram Bot
Operate trusted agent workflows from a familiar chat interface.
