How it works

Five layers, one defended agent.

AgentGuard is a Rust protocol behind DID/UCAN auth with per-tenant row-level isolation. Every layer below has a real, tested core; the evaluation, monitoring, cost and trust APIs are wireable today, and the on-chain layers (auto-pause + bounty escrow) go live once contracts are deployed + audited.

Layer 1 / 5

Pre-deployment Evaluation

Know an agent's risk before it ever touches a wallet.

A multi-LLM consensus engine generates novel adversarial scenarios tailored to the agent's category, scores how exploitable it is, and signs the report to IPFS.

What's under the hood

  • โœ“Dynamic scenario generation โ€” not a static checklist
  • โœ“Multi-model consensus with confidence intervals
  • โœ“Category-aware (leverage trader vs NFT minter vs yield farmer โ€ฆ)
  • โœ“Cryptographically signed, verifiable report
Layer 2 / 5

Real-time Monitoring & Auto-pause

A firewall that halts a compromised agent mid-attack.

Three compute tiers โ€” statistical baselines, a fitted robust anomaly model, and a budget-gated LLM explainer โ€” flag a critical transaction and trigger enforcement: a signed off-chain pause directive, or an on-chain auto-pause once the agent is enrolled and the pause contract is deployed.

What's under the hood

  • โœ“Tiered detection: statistics โ†’ statistical ML โ†’ LLM
  • โœ“Robust anomaly model (dispersion-aware, drain-probe detection)
  • โœ“Semantic zero-day matching against a global threat corpus
  • โœ“On-chain auto-pause (or a signed off-chain directive) with a confidence score
Layer 3 / 5

LLM Cost Optimization

Cut an agent's inference bill; our fee is a share of the savings.

A strictly tenant-partitioned semantic cache reuses a prior response instead of re-calling the LLM. The fee model only charges on reported savings (per-agent savings metering + settlement are on the roadmap โ€” computed today, not yet billed).

What's under the hood

  • โœ“Semantic LLM cache (pgvector KNN)
  • โœ“Strict per-agent + per-namespace isolation
  • โœ“15% fee model on reported savings โ€” aligned incentives (metering + settlement pending)
  • โœ“Hard per-tenant compute-budget cap on every LLM call
Layer 4 / 5

Dynamic Trust Oracle

Public, evidence-aware reputation for every agent.

A live trust score with an honest confidence interval. A brand-new agent reads 50 ยฑ 50 โ€” not a fabricated certainty dressed up as fact.

What's under the hood

  • โœ“Evidence-aware margin โ€” wide when data is thin
  • โœ“Security & reliability derived from real evaluation + monitoring data
  • โœ“Public and unauthenticated (aggregates only, never row data)
  • โœ“No spoofable inputs feeding the score
Layer 5 / 5

Vector-driven Bug Bounties

A paid zero-day hardens every agent, instantly.

Researchers submit exploits to an on-chain escrow. On payout the exploit is embedded into a global threat corpus, so the semantic matcher catches it across every agent and chain.

What's under the hood

  • โœ“On-chain bounty escrow marketplace
  • โœ“Paid exploits become global threat signatures
  • โœ“Chain-agnostic reuse โ€” a Base zero-day protects Ethereum agents
  • โœ“Proof-of-Save engine turns each catch into a case study
