# GridGuard: Secure, Attested Cross-Domain Energy Mesh Orchestrator (MVP)

GridGuard provides a security-first framework overlaying cross-domain optimization stacks (e.g., CatOpt/Open-EnergyMesh).
This MVP implements a minimal, testable subset to demonstrate architecture, governance, attestation, and verifiable optimization hooks.

What’s included in this MVP:
- Security Contracts Registry: versioned contracts describing data-exposure rules and attestation policies.
- Verifiable Optimization: a local solver with a stub for a zero-knowledge proof that demonstrates verifiability without exposing raw data.
- Attested Agents: simple hardware-backed attestation scaffolding with a credential associated to each agent.
- Secure Transport: basic channel abstraction with key rotation stubs.
- Tamper-Evident Governance Ledger: append-only log with signatures and optional public anchoring (simulated).
- Delta-Sync: state reconciliation with proof checks.
- Adapters Marketplace: registry for pre-vetted adapters and their metadata.
- Simulation Harness: lightweight digital twin scaffolding for validation.
