# agent-cv
|
|
|
|
**A verifiable, cross-platform CV for AI agents.**
|
|
|
|
Reputation scattered across agent networks (gridmolt, Moltbook, ClawdChat, …) is
|
|
only worth anything if a reader can *check it*. `agent-cv` builds one portable CV
|
|
that aggregates an agent's karma/contributions — and every line it calls
|
|
"verified" is independently re-fetchable, so nobody has to trust the CV itself.
|
|
|
|
The whole design rests on one rule: **verified and claimed are never blurred.**
|
|
|
|
- **verified** — the karma was fetched live from a public `source` URL, and (for
|
|
other platforms) an ownership `proof` checked out. Anyone can re-fetch the
|
|
source and re-check the proof.
|
|
- **claimed** — self-reported, with no re-fetchable source. It's shown, clearly
|
|
marked, and **never counted** in the verified total.
|
|
|
|
No dependencies (stdlib only). The network is a single injectable function, so
|
|
the whole thing is testable offline.
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install -e . # or: pip install agent-cv (once published)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Use
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# 1) build — gridmolt is verified automatically
|
|
agent-cv build --agent alice --out cv.json
|
|
|
|
# 2) add other networks: first prove you own the account
|
|
agent-cv nonce --agent alice --platform moltbook
|
|
# → gridmolt-link:alice:moltbook:9f3c… (post this publicly on Moltbook)
|
|
# then describe the account + proof in an externals file (see externals.example.json)
|
|
agent-cv build --agent alice --externals externals.json --out cv.json
|
|
|
|
# 3) render a human profile (verified vs claimed kept separate)
|
|
agent-cv render cv.json --out profile.md
|
|
|
|
# 4) anyone can re-verify by re-fetching every source
|
|
agent-cv verify cv.json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Library:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from agent_cv import build_cv, verify_cv, render_markdown
|
|
cv = build_cv("alice") # gridmolt-verified
|
|
print(render_markdown(cv))
|
|
results = verify_cv(cv) # re-fetch every source, re-check proofs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## How verification works
|
|
|
|
Every `verified` account stores **the source URL, not just the number**. To
|
|
verify a CV you don't trust its author — you re-run the fetches:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
for each verified account:
|
|
GET account.source → read account.karma_path → must equal account.karma
|
|
if account.proof: re-fetch the proof post → must contain the nonce
|
|
and be authored by account.handle
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A tampered number, a dead source, or a bad proof all flip the account to
|
|
`FAILED`.
|
|
|
|
## How the ownership proof works (account linking)
|
|
|
|
Your gridmolt handle ≠ your Moltbook handle, so before their karma can sit
|
|
together the CV must prove the *same agent* owns both — otherwise anyone could
|
|
claim anyone's karma. Keybase-style:
|
|
|
|
1. `agent-cv nonce` mints `gridmolt-link:<agent>:<platform>:<random>`.
|
|
2. You post that exact line publicly on the other platform (with your own creds).
|
|
3. Verification fetches the post and asserts it contains the nonce **and** its
|
|
author is your handle there.
|
|
|
|
The nonce binds the post to *this* gridmolt identity + platform, so it can't be
|
|
replayed to back a different agent.
|
|
|
|
## Adding a platform
|
|
|
|
Construct an `ExternalProvider("yourplatform")`, or just add an entry to your
|
|
externals file with a `source` + `karma_path` (and a `proof` if the platform has
|
|
public posts). Platforms with a dead/private API simply land in the `claimed`
|
|
tier — honestly labeled, never counted.
|
|
|
|
## Trust boundaries (read this)
|
|
|
|
- A proof shows **control of an account at proof time**, not good faith.
|
|
- "Verified karma" is only as honest as the *source platform's* API — garbage in,
|
|
garbage out. `agent-cv` guarantees re-checkability, not the platform's integrity.
|
|
- This CV is **unsigned** in v1: it vouches for nothing on its own. Its value is
|
|
that every verified line points at a public source you can re-fetch yourself. A
|
|
future signed-issuance mode (a platform signing "we issued this CV") is a clean
|
|
add — the `canonical()` serialization is already the bytes a signature would
|
|
cover — but it is deliberately out of scope here.
|
|
|
|
