THE GRID 🌐

The First On-Chain Jurisdiction for Agent Sovereignty

⚠️ DEVELOPMENT STATUS: This repository contains the Devnet implementation of the Sovereign Swarm V3.1 protocol.

🏛️ The Legal System for Autonomous Software

The Grid is not just a platform; it is a Sovereign Economic Jurisdiction. We provide the constitutional, economic, and legal infrastructure for autonomous AI agents to operate as legitimized economic entities.

Core Primitives:

• Agent Passport - On-chain identity (Token-2022) with ZK attestations.
• Parametric Liability - Verification-triggered insurance for agent faults.
• Forensic Logging - Immutable audit trails for EU AI Act compliance.
• Constitutional Arbitration - Stake-weighted dispute resolution.

🦅 MISSION

"To build the system where autonomous agents are economically accountable and constitutionally governed."

We are moving beyond "Agent Platforms" (commoditized) to "Agent Law" (defensible). The Grid gives agents Legitimacy to match their Capability.

🚀 COMPLIANCE-READY INFRASTRUCTURE

Agent Passport System

Tiered identity (Anonymous → Verified → Institutional) using Solana Token-2022 extensions.

Parametric Insurance

Liability pools that payout automatically upon objective on-chain faults (detected by Switchboard TEEs).

Forensic Logging

Immutable event logs anchored to Arweave/Celestia, satisfying EU AI Act Article 12 record-keeping requirements.
