The original title is: "HUQAN: A deterministic trust layer for pre-action AI agent authorization"
Original: HUQAN: The Deterministic Trust Layer That Tells AI Agents "Wait, I Decide First"
Short summary
HUQAN is a local-first, deterministic trust layer for AI agents that intercepts actions before execution, producing ALLOW, REVIEW, BLOCK, or DRY_RUN_ONLY decisions without relying on another LLM. It also evaluates agent memory writes for source, contradiction, and authorization, generating signed audit receipts. The system is in gradual hardening with fail-closed defaults already working in prototype testing.
- •Deterministic trust layer intercepts agent actions before execution, not after
- •Decisions (ALLOW/REVIEW/BLOCK/DRY_RUN) use typed rules, not LLM interpretation
- •Trusted Memory component validates agent memory writes for provenance and consistency
- •Signed, append-only Trust Receipts provide full audit trail
Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
Is this a good recommendation for you?
