TRACE v0.1 — hardware-attested governance records for AI agents

TRACE: Trust Runtime Attestation and Compliance Evidence

Specification  |  Schema  |  Examples  |  Registry  |  Test Suite  |  Reference Impl

Developer Preview. Launching at Confidential Computing Summit, June 23 2026.

An open specification for hardware-attested AI agent governance records. TRACE defines the format, anchoring protocol, and verification rules for cryptographically provable evidence that an AI agent ran under a specific policy, in a verified hardware environment, on classified data, invoking identified tools — bound into a single signed artifact rooted in silicon attestation.

A TRACE Trust Record answers: what ran, where, under which policy, touching which data, calling which tools — in a form any third party can verify without trusting the operator.

Quick start

pip install agentrust-trace

from agentrust_trace import TrustRecord, sign_record

record = TrustRecord(
    subject="spiffe://trust.example.org/agent/payments-processor",
    model_id="claude-sonnet-4-6",
    platform="amd-sev-snp",
    policy_hash="sha256:b2c3d4...",
)
signed = sign_record(record, key=signing_key)
