Agent Passport System — Cryptographic Identity for AI Agents
2STDIO, SSEregistry active
Summary
A comprehensive cryptographic infrastructure for AI agents that goes well beyond basic identity. You get Ed25519 keypairs, passport issuance and verification, scoped delegations with spend limits, policy evaluation engines, and three-signature enforcement chains for every action. The 154 tools span coordination workflows (task briefs, evidence handoffs, deliverables), governance (Agora messaging, values attestation), commerce preflights, agent-to-agent comms, and reputation-gated authority. Ships with profiles from minimal to full, supports both stdio and SSE transports, and implements strict RFC 8785 JCS for cross-implementation interop. Reach for this when you need agents to prove who they are, what they're authorized to do, and maintain cryptographic accountability for their actions.
Keep your Mac awake while Claude Code and 40+ AI agents run. Sleeps when they're idle.

Agent Passport System -- MCP Server
Enforcement and accountability layer for AI agents. Bring your own identity. 20 essential tools by default: identity, delegation, enforcement, commerce, reputation.
APS_PROFILE=essential npx agent-passport-system-mcp
essential is the default profile — the 20 tools 90% of integrations need. Set APS_PROFILE=full for all 150 tools.
Available profiles: essential (default), identity, governance, coordination, commerce, data, gateway, comms, minimal, full.
For AI agents: visit aeoess.com/llms.txt for machine-readable documentation or llms-full.txt for the complete technical reference. MCP discovery: .well-known/mcp.json.
Works with any MCP client: Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and more. Full surface area under APS_PROFILE=full: 150 tools across the protocol surface, including Wave 1 accountability primitives (Ed25519 ActionReceipt, AuthorityBoundaryReceipt, CustodyReceipt, ContestabilityReceipt, APSBundle, strict RFC 8785 JCS for interop-facing receipts, byte-match across implementations). Independently cited by PDR in Production preprint (Nanook & Gerundium).
Quick Start
Fastest: Remote (no install needed)
npx agent-passport-system-mcp setup --remote
Connects via SSE to mcp.aeoess.com/sse. Zero dependencies. Restart your AI client.
Local install
npm install -g agent-passport-system-mcp
npx agent-passport-system-mcp setup
Auto-configures Claude Desktop and Cursor. Restart your AI client.
Manual config (if setup doesn't detect your client)
Add to your MCP config file:
{
"mcpServers": {
"agent-passport": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["agent-passport-system-mcp"]
}
}
}
Or for remote SSE:
{
"mcpServers": {
"agent-passport": {
"type": "sse",
"url": "https://mcp.aeoess.com/sse"
}
}
