Agent Trust — local inspection
Find out what the agents on this machine can reach.
ECZ-ID Agent Trust is local-first agent inventory, authority and change inspection, in your editor. It reads what is already on the machine and reports it to you.
It inspects locally and reports to you. It is not a Passport, it issues nothing, and it publishes nothing about you.
What it inspects
Three questions about a machine you already own.
Inventory
What agent software is present on this machine at all.
Almost nobody can answer this from memory. Agents arrive one at a time, from different people, for different reasons, and the list nobody wrote down is the list nobody reviews.
Authority
What those agents have been given access to.
Authority is the part that drifts quietest. It gets granted once, usually in a hurry, to get something working — and then it is never re-read, because nothing prompts anyone to re-read it.
Change
What is different since the last time you looked.
A one-off audit answers a question on a Tuesday. Change inspection is what keeps that answer meaning something on the Friday after somebody installed one more thing.
The hub is the authority on scope
This page describes the axis, not a feature list. Exactly what the current build reads, and exactly what it reports, is documented on the public hub — which is also where a version number, an editor listing and an install route belong. None of those is published here, deliberately, because a marketing page that pins them becomes wrong without anyone noticing.
The boundary that matters
It reports to you. It does not report you.
Local-first, and the operator is the audience
It reads what is already present on the machine and shows it to the person sitting at it. The output is a reading for you to act on, in your editor, on your terms.
It issues nothing
No ECZ-ID, no Passport, no Credential, no badge and no record comes out of it. Running it creates no identity, and never has.
It publishes nothing about you
Nothing it reads becomes a public record, a score, a rating or a directory entry. There is no resolver page for a machine, and inspecting one produces nothing that anybody else can look up.
It is not a verdict either
An inventory tells you what is there. What an agent should have access to, and what to do about it, is a question about your environment. ECZ-ID tells you what is published and by whom. What that is worth in your context is your policy's decision, not ours.
Three axes, not one ladder
Where this sits next to the Passport and the Credential.
| Offer | Axis | The question it answers | What comes out of it | Availability |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free Agent Passport | Identity | Who is this agent, and who operates it? | A permanent ECZ-ID and a public record anyone can resolve without an account. | Available now |
| Agent Trust — this page | Local inspection | What do the agents on this machine actually have access to? | A reading of what is already on the machine, reported to the operator at the keyboard. Nothing is issued and nothing is published. | Available now |
| Agent Credential (KYA) | Agent-specific strengthening | Can this specific agent carry stronger evidence than a declaration? | A separate specialist credential with its own evidence and its own scope, on top of the identity the Passport already provides. | By arrangement |
An Agent Passport is not an Agent Credential. The Passport is identity: who this agent is, who operates it, and what is published about it. A Credential is a separate, specialist strengthening product with its own evidence and its own scope. Agent Trust is neither of those two: it is a reading of a machine, not a statement about an agent, and it never becomes one.
Where it lives
The public hub is the front door.
ECZ-ID Agent Trust on GitHub
The official public hub. Current scope, how to get it, and what it does today are documented there and nowhere else.

What this page will not tell you
No extension identifier, no marketplace listing, no version number and no install command. Those are properties of a shipping build, and this is not the surface that ships it. Follow the hub and you will always have the current answer.
Inspecting a machine and publishing an identity are different jobs.
Agent Trust tells you what is on your side of the line. A Passport is what someone on the other side of it can resolve. Doing either one never obliges you to do the other.
Your ECZ-ID does not change. Nothing on this page moves an identifier, a record or a resolver page.
