Future Agent Applications

Agent Reputation Bonds

Reputation Bonds can be extended beyond user reputation into agent trust infrastructure. In this model, an agent earns a domain-specific, revocable trust credential based on verified operational history. That credential can then determine how much capital, autonomy, or execution authority the agent is allowed to have.

The current MVP implements the trading path. Cybersecurity and treasury agent use cases are shown here as future directions.

Capital-constrained autonomous execution

Trading Agent

Future

A trading agent earns a Trading Reputation Bond by operating within defined performance and risk thresholds. Other protocols can use that bond to decide how much capital access or premium financial functionality the agent should receive.

ROE

Sustained profitable or bounded-risk execution
Acceptable drawdown
No policy violations

Slash condition

Drawdown breach
Risk limit violation
Manual issuer slash

Unlocked permissions

Better borrowing terms
Higher capital access
Premium protocol mode

Threat detection and response authority

Cybersecurity Agent

Future

A cybersecurity agent could earn an RB through accurate, reliable threat detection and safe operational behavior. The bond would act as a trust budget for how much monitoring scope and automated response authority the agent can have.

ROE

High precision threat detection
Acceptable false-positive rate
Reliable escalation behavior

Slash condition

Repeated critical misses
Unsafe automated actions
False-positive flood

Unlocked permissions

Broader monitoring scope
Higher alert authority
Limited automated remediation rights

Controlled financial execution authority

Treasury Agent

Future

A treasury agent could earn an RB by consistently executing low-risk treasury operations within policy bounds. That bond would determine how much value the agent can move and what kinds of autonomous treasury actions it is allowed to perform.

ROE

Policy-compliant treasury actions
Successful execution history
No unauthorized routing

Slash condition

Out-of-policy transfers
Execution failures
Destination or cap violations

Unlocked permissions

Higher transfer caps
Broader treasury scope
Reduced manual approval requirements
