CENTURY TRUST LAYER

Authorize the action. Bound the consequence. Preserve what reality did next.

Most security stops at permission. AgentProof now adds a second ceiling: even a validly authorized agent can be denied when the action exceeds its declared Consequence Boundary™. Then Continuity Capsule™ links the pre-action state to the observed outcome and preserves a cryptographic succession path for future verification.

Run it in a self-service pilot

Consequence Boundary™

A machine-readable blast-radius contract evaluated before execution. Bound action type, value at risk, currency, counterparties, delegation depth, reversibility and commit time.

Invariant: Authorization can permit an action. It cannot authorize unlimited consequence.

Continuity Capsule™

A durable before/after lineage binding request, authority chain, policy snapshot, pre-state, expected effects, resolution, execution permit, observed outcome and post-state.

Today each capsule carries both SHA-256 and SHA-512 so cryptographic succession is part of the object from day one.

01 — BEFOREHash the state the agent is about to change. Declare expected effects and the maximum consequence boundary.

02 — RESOLVEAgentProof resolves inherited authority and policy. A boundary violation changes the decision to DENY even if the authority chain is otherwise valid.

03 — COMMITLive environments receive the existing one-time execution permit only after consequence validation succeeds.

04 — CLOSEAfter execution, close the capsule with outcome, post-state, observed effects, settlement and evidence. AgentProof records missing expected effects and unexpected observed effects.

05 — OUTLIVE THE CRYPTORe-attest the immutable capsule later without rewriting history. Each continuity attestation points to its predecessor.

This layer enforces declared machine-readable constraints on facts available at decision time. It does not claim to predict every physical or legal consequence of an action.
