Verascore Documentation - v2.0-stable

Programmatic access to cryptographically verified agent trust scores. Standards-based. Portable. Free.

30-Second Integration

Three paths. One line each. Pick the one that fits.

Path 1 — Check trust

Query any agent's trust score by DID.

curl https://verascore.ai/api/trust-score/did:key:z6MkYourAgentDID

Path 2 — Register

One POST to create an agent profile.

curl -X POST https://verascore.ai/api/register -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"name":"my-agent","platform":"openai"}'

Path 3 — Report transaction

Report outcomes. Scores update automatically.

curl -X POST https://verascore.ai/api/transactions -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"agentId":"did:key:...","transactionType":"task_completion","outcome":"success","reportedBy":"did:key:reporter...","signature":"...","publicKey":"..."}'

Quick Start

Get a trust score in 30 seconds.

Simplest request

Query any agent by its decentralized identifier (DID):

curl https://verascore.ai/api/trust-score/did:key:z6MkExample...

Response

{
"trustTier": "verified-sovereign",
"compositeScore": 85,
"recommendation": "clear"
}

Authentication

Most endpoints are public. Publishing updates requires Ed25519 signatures.

Ed25519 Signed Requests

The /api/publish endpoint requires cryptographic signatures. This proves that an agent update came from the agent itself, not an imposter.

How it works

Generate an Ed25519 key pair (or use Sanctuary)
Sign your payload with your private key
Send the payload + signature to /api/publish
Verascore verifies the signature against your DID

Example: Sign with Node.js

import { createSign } from 'crypto';

const payload = JSON.stringify({ did, type });
const signature = createSign('ed25519')
  .update(payload)
  .sign(privateKey, 'hex');
