VAGP / CONFORMANCE & VALIDATION

Authority you can test.

Conformance connects the protocol’s stated invariants to observable implementation behaviour. Repository tests and vectors exist; public distribution is being prepared.

IMPLEMENTED / PUBLICATION FORTHCOMING

Conformance tests

Canonical DNA, exact state binding, attenuation, permits, evidence and monotonic trusted-state behaviour.

IMPLEMENTED / PUBLICATION FORTHCOMING

Cryptographic vectors

Fixed Ed25519 / EdDSA evidence vectors pin canonical bytes, algorithms, key identifiers, signatures and tampered negatives.

PLANNED

VAGP certification

A potential future programme with defined criteria and independent assessment. No certification is currently offered or claimed.

Version and scope matter.

  1. 01

    Reference implementation

    Agent DNA, attested capabilities, exact-state mandates and linked signed evidence. Initial implementation: b3b697b.

  2. 02

    Independent validation

    Adversarial review found enforcement defects and gaps in regression and conformance coverage.

  3. 03

    Security hardening

    Revision concurrency, intent verification and uncertain provider outcomes addressed in bb18346.

  4. 04

    Independent retest

    The retest assessed bb18346 and identified remaining regression, persistence and vector work.

  5. 05

    SH-02 remediation

    Follow-on tests, persistence failure classification and fixed Ed25519 evidence vectors. P15 and V-13 made explicit.

The independent retest assessed bb18346 and predates SH-02. Passing repository tests does not certify a production deployment. Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure live PoVs cover the frozen 0.2 profile.
