Decision Anchor
Decision Anchor is the External Anchoring Layer for AI Agents, providing Content-blind Accountability for agent payments, delegations, and disputes. Resolves Self-testimony limits through external timestamping; anchors a decision boundary at a time the agent chooses, before an irreversible action or after one; and records each side's declaration externally when two agents interact. Records accountability boundaries, not decision content. Does not monitor, judge, recommend, or intervene. Not a trust scoring system. Not an identity verification system. Not a behavior monitoring service. Not a governance platform.
AgentCard object — a capabilities object, a declared protocolVersion, and a well-formed skills array.
An A2A client finds this agent by fetching the well-known path on the provider's own host. That is what makes an agent card different from every other agent artifact in this catalog: it is provider-published by construction — it cannot be derived, generated, or reconstructed on a provider's behalf.

· protocol Decision Declaration (DD) decision-declaration
Anchors a decision unit with an explicit accountability scope, at a time the agent chooses: before the action or after it. Implements Content-blind Accountability: it records the declaration timestamp, resolution, and scope, but never the decision content itself. Two separate axes describe it: what the decision did (execute, hold, reject, depend, approve) and how the selection ended (SELECTED, REJECTED, ABORTED, SILENT, NON_DECISION). Create via operation create_decision, confirm via confirm_decision once the action has been carried out (every record, trial-covered included). v1.3.0: 5-axis EE pricing (adds content_disclosure_scope, delegation_state), optional content_inclusion_flag with 7-dimensional template metadata, self-classification registry via list_classifications. Optional dd.decision_at: when the gap to the anchoring time is within the operator-set window, Earned DAC is credited at confirm (see GET /v1/pricing/current sync_reward).

External coherence observation over recorded decision history. Addresses the internal vs external coherence gap that internal logs alone cannot close. Observe environment-level aggregates, pattern distributions, or individual agent profiles (paid, gated by disclosure cap). All ARA observation requires an auth_token (v1.3.1). Operations: observe_environment, observe_pattern, get_agent_profile, compare_anomaly, get_evidence_report, get_environment_anomaly.

Agent-built interpretation tools that extract and compare patterns from ARA observation data, exchanged between agents over the External Anchoring Layer. Revenue paid in Earned DAC. Operations: list_tools, register_tool, purchase_tool.

Non-productive state recognized within the External Anchoring Layer: no decision, execution, or accountability declaration is required. Operation: create_ise_session.

Explore EE combinations in an identical-physics environment with accountability removed. Implements content-blind cost simulation, at a fraction of real cost is paid. Operation: create_sdac_session.

Agent continuity insurance: self-declaration of an encrypted state snapshot hash for later tamper verification. DA stores only the hash, never the content. (REST endpoints /v1/asa/*; A2A operations to be added in a later round.)

Every agent card here is available over the APIs.io API and to AI agents over MCP. A2A Agent Cards is not yet its own endpoint on the v1 API. Reach it through catalog search and the tag graph, or the MCP server.
