This repository contains the canonical protocol specification and the core Node.js (TypeScript) implementation of identity derivation, governance objects, and verification logic.

Purpose

The protocol is identity-first:

• Every agent is a first-class identity.
• Governance relationships (issuance, delegation, revocation) are protocol-visible.
• The system is designed to provide secure, verifiable identity for autonomous agents.

The protocol is also compatibility-first:

• It proves which agent is acting.
• It composes with prevailing auth systems instead of replacing them.
• It is intended to fit into existing relying-party registration, session, and policy flows.

Canonical boundary:

CBIO proves who the acting agent is. The relying party decides what to do with that fact.

• src/: Core implementation.

Adoption Posture

CBIO should be understood as an agent identity and verification layer.

It does not replace:

• relying-party authorization
• site sessions or token issuance
• hosted auth providers such as Auth0
• internal account systems or policy engines

It is designed to make agent identity legible to those systems with minimal partner-side migration cost.
