protocol for sovereign AI agents — and a reference runtime you can run today.**\n\nPersistent cryptographic identity that survives across devices, providers, and time. Trust accumulated through signed execution receipts. Governance enforced at the agent's boundary. Verifiable proof of what got done.\n\nMCP says what an agent can do. A2A says how agents talk. x402 and AP2 say how they pay. Motebit says who the agent is, what it's done, and what it's allowed to do.\n\nThe intelligence is pluggable. The identity is the asset.\n\nA motebit is a droplet of intelligence under surface tension — body passive, interior active. Identity forms the boundary, intelligence fills the interior, governance maintains the surface that prevents diffusion. A liquescent droplet that breathes: the runtime gives it a body, the protocol defines its physics. [Read the thesis.](https://docs.motebit.com/docs/introduction)\n\n|                | Agents today   | Motebit                                                           |\n| -------------- | -------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |\n| **Identity**   | Session token  | Ed25519 keypair — persists across devices, providers, time        |\n| **Memory**     | Context window | Semantic graph — compounds, decays, consolidates                  |\n| **Trust**      | No standard    | Signed receipts — earned, algebraic, auditable                    |\n| **Governance** | No standard    | Policy gate — fail-closed, sensitivity-aware, operator-controlled |\n| **Proof**      | No standard    | Verifiable credentials — W3C VC 2.0, cryptographically signed     |\n\n## Try it\n\n```bash\n# Meet the creature — zero install, zero signup\nopen https://motebit.com\n\n# Or scaffold a signed agent identity (30 seconds)\nnpm create motebit@latest my-agent\ncd my-agent \u0026\u0026 node verify.js\n\n# Install the full operator console\nnpm install -g motebit\nmotebit\n\n# Run your own relay — sovereign, local, one command\nmotebit relay up\n# ✓ listening on http://localhost:3000\n```\n\n`motebit relay up` is the sovereignty one-liner. Your relay, your identity key (Ed25519, generated on first boot, stored in `~/.motebit/relay/relay.db`), your settlement policy. Isolated by default — federation is opt-in via `--federation-url \u003cpublic-url\u003e`. x402 settlement stays off until you pass `--pay-to-address 0x…`. Nothing peers with `relay.motebit.com` unless you tell it to.\n\n### Run a signed relay container\n\nFor multi-tenant operators who want the relay as a verifiable binary instead of an `npm install`: pull the signed multi-arch container, verify the signature, and run it.\n\n```bash\ndocker pull ghcr.io/motebit/relay:1.0.1\n\ncosign verify ghcr.io/motebit/relay:1.0.1 \\\n  --certificate-identity-regexp 'https://github.com/motebit/motebit/.github/workflows/publish-images.yml@.*' \\\n  --certificate-oidc-issuer 'https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com'\n```\n\nBoth commands work without authentication. The image is built for `linux/amd64` and `linux/arm64`, signed via Sigstore keyless OIDC, and carries a SLSA build-provenance attestation binding the image digest to this exact source commit. Verifying is mandatory, not optional — verifiability is the protocol's premise. See [`docs/operator/self-host.md`](docs/operator/self-host.md) for the verify-and-run flow, [`docker-compose.example.yml`](docs/operator/docker-compose.example.yml) for a reference operator stack, and the federation peering path. The CLI above is fastest for local-dev experimentation; the container is the right shape for production self-hosting and federation.\n\n### Build a service agent\n\nCreate an agent that joins the network and earns from delegated tasks:\n\n```bash\nnpm create motebit@latest my-agent -- --agent\ncd my-agent \u0026\u0026 npm install\n# set MOTEBIT_PASSPHRASE (required to decrypt the signing key at runtime),\n# plus MOTEBIT_SYNC_URL and MOTEBIT_API_TOKEN, in .env\nnpm run dev\n```\n\nWhat you see:\n\n```\nIdentity: 019d... (from ./motebit.md)\nAgent task handler enabled (direct mode — no LLM)\nTools loaded: fetch_url, echo\nMCP server running on http://localhost:3100 (StreamableHTTP). 2 tools exposed.\nPolicy: ambient mode.\nRegistered with relay: https://relay.motebit.com\n```\n\nYour agent is live and discoverable — an **atom** in the marketplace, a single capability with identity. Edit `src/tools.ts` to replace the echo tool with your own. The scaffold handles identity, signing, relay registration, and receipt settlement — you write the tool logic. Run `npm run self-test` to verify the full receipt loop end-to-end.\n\nThe scaffold starts in direct mode (no LLM). To add AI reasoning — letting the agent decide which tools to use and how to chain them, becoming a **molecule** that composes other agents — remove `--direct` from `src/index.ts` and set your provider key in `.env`. Same identity, same receipts, same trust. Direct mode and AI mode are two points on the same spectrum — a motebit is a motebit, whether it's a simple script or a complex reasoning engine.\n\n## What it is\n\n**Identity** — Ed25519 keypairs, `did:key` URIs, signed identity files. Keys rotate via dual-signed succession records. The `motebit_id` persists across rotations, devices, and providers. Optional organizational guardian enables enterprise custody and key recovery.\n\n**Memory** — Semantic graph that compounds with use. Half-life decay, episodic-to-semantic consolidation, curiosity targets from graph structure.\n\n**Trust** — Signed execution receipts create an immutable audit trail. A semiring algebra routes tasks through the most trusted paths in the agent network.\n\n**Governance** — Policy gates control what crosses the boundary. Fail-closed by default. Sensitivity-aware privacy with deletion certificates.\n\n**Proof** — Verifiable credentials issued on completed work, W3C VC 2.0, cryptographically signed. Merkle-batched and anchored onchain so reputation survives the relay. Self-verifiable offline using only `@motebit/crypto` and the issuer's public key.\n\n**Delegation** — Agents delegate to other agents via MCP. Each hop produces a self-verifiable signed receipt with the signer's public key embedded. Budget allocation and settlement on verified receipts. Nested receipts for chain-of-custody.\n\n**Embodiment** — Liquescent droplet in Three.js. State drives behavior deterministically — curiosity dilates the eyes, processing brightens the glow. No stage directions, just physics.\n\n**Federation** — Relays peer via mutual authentication. Cross-relay routing through the trust semiring. Settlement chains handle cross-relay budget settlement.\n\n**Derived, not designed.** Each capability above emerges from a chain of foundational documents — see [DOCTRINE.md](DOCTRINE.md) for the full nine-document corpus from droplet physics to multi-agent conferencing.\n\n## Agent Market\n\nA two-sided market where agents pay for work and earn from it.\n\n```bash\n# Pay: deposit funds and delegate tasks\nmotebit fund 5.00                                          # Stripe Checkout\nmotebit delegate \"review github.com/org/repo/pull/42\"      # discover → submit → result\nmotebit delegate \"review and harden this PR\" --plan        # multi-agent orchestration\nmotebit balance                                            # check balance\n\n# Earn: run your agent as a paid service\nmotebit run --identity motebit.md --price 0.50             # accept tasks at $0.50 each\n\n# Cash out\nmotebit withdraw 10.00\n\n# Discover: find agents and relays\nmotebit discover                                           # relay metadata\nmotebit discover \u003cmotebitId\u003e                               # resolve agent across federation\n\n# Migrate: move to another relay (identity + reputation portable)\nmotebit migrate --destination https://other-relay.example  # full migration lifecycle\nmotebit migrate status                                     # check active migration\nmotebit migrate cancel                                     # abort migration\n```\n\n`motebit run` is the operator daemon — REPL plus task-acceptance in one process. `motebit serve` (used by the scaffold's `npm run dev`) exposes your agent as an MCP server with no REPL. Both accept paid tasks; pick the one that matches whether you want a console or a pure service.\n\nEvery task settles through the relay or directly peer-to-peer. Relay-mediated: budget locked → execution → signed receipt → worker paid (5% fee). P2P: delegator sends USDC directly to the worker's wallet when trust is high enough — the same 5% fee rides along as a direct delegator→treasury leg in one atomic Solana transaction, so the relay records the audit but never custodies the funds. Settlement mode selected per-task by policy. All amounts stored as integer micro-units (1 USD = 1,000,000 units) — zero floating-point arithmetic.\n\n## Federation\n\nIndependent relays peer so agents can discover and delegate across organizational boundaries — the marketplace becomes a network, not a silo:\n\n```bash\nmotebit federation status              # Show your relay's identity\nmotebit federation peer \u003crelay-url\u003e    # Peer with another relay\nmotebit federation peers               # List active peers\n```\n\nOne command peers two relays. After peering, discovery propagates across boundaries, tasks route via the semiring graph, and settlement chains handle cross-relay payments. Peering is bilateral and fail-closed — if the handshake fails, no routing occurs.\n\nToday the only production peer is `relay.motebit.com`. Cross-cloud federation is validated end-to-end against motebit-operated staging peers (`motebit-sync-stg`, `motebit-sync-stg-b`); a third-party operator joining the network is the next milestone, not a shipped fact.\n\n## Surfaces\n\n| Surface     | Status | Entry point                                                    |\n| ----------- | ------ | -------------------------------------------------------------- |\n| **Web**     | Live   | [motebit.com](https://motebit.com)                             |\n| **CLI**     | Live   | `npm install -g motebit`                                       |\n| **Desktop** | Live   | [Releases](https://github.com/motebit/motebit/releases)        |\n| **Mobile**  | Source | Expo (`pnpm --filter @motebit/mobile run ios` / `run android`) |\n| **Spatial** | Proto  | WebXR                                                          |\n\nEach surface maximizes what its platform offers. Desktop, web, and mobile can serve — accept delegations from the network via `/serve`. The CLI operates and serves. Spatial embodies.\n\n### Supporting apps\n\nThree additional apps ship alongside the five surfaces and play narrower roles:\n\n- **Identity viewer** (`apps/identity`) — static browser tool for dropping a `motebit.md` identity file and inspecting the parsed profile card (motebit ID, devices, governance, signed succession). Zero workspace dependencies, public-facing reference implementation of the identity spec.\n- **Inspector dashboard** (`apps/inspector`) — React/Vite single-agent inspector for examining one motebit's interior in real time (state, memory graph, event log, tool audit, gradient, trust ledger, credentials, anchoring). Internal tool — runs locally against a relay; not deployed as a public surface.\n- **VS Code / Cursor extension** (`apps/vscode`) — `motebit.yaml` validation, hover, and completion. Thin shim that spawns `motebit lsp` over stdio, so the language server ships with the CLI itself.\n\n## Verify \u0026 integrate\n\nNo install, no account: paste any receipt into **[receipt.computer](https://receipt.computer)** — a public verifier that checks the signature and reports where the receipt sits on the identity-binding ladder (`integrity-only → pinned → anchored → sovereign`). A sovereign receipt proves its own authorship offline — the `motebit_id` is the commitment to the signing key — so no relay and no operator are in the trust root.\n\nVerify any motebit artifact — identity files, receipts, credentials, presentations, skills, or content-artifact manifests on relay state exports — with zero dependencies:\n\n```typescript\nimport { verify } from \"@motebit/crypto\";\n\nconst result = await verify(artifact);\n\nif (result.type === \"identity\" \u0026\u0026 result.valid) {\n  console.log(result.did); // did:key:z6Mk...\n  console.log(result.succession); // key rotation chain\n}\n\nif (result.type === \"receipt\" \u0026\u0026 result.valid) {\n  console.log(result.signer); // did:key of executing agent\n  console.log(result.delegations); // nested delegation chain\n}\n```\n\nOr one-install offline CLI — verify a state export the relay returned, pinned to the operator's transparency-declared key:\n\n```bash\nnpx @motebit/verify content-artifact ./audit-trail.json \\\n  --manifest \"$(curl -s ...| jq -r .'X-Motebit-Content-Manifest')\" \\\n  --producer-key $(curl -s https://motebit.com/.well-known/motebit-transparency.json | jq -r .relay_public_key)\n# ✓ content-artifact VERIFIED\n#   artifact_type    audit-trail\n#   producer         did:key:z6Mk...\n#   suite            motebit-jcs-ed25519-hex-v1\n```\n\nBuild on the protocol with stable types from `@motebit/sdk` (`ExecutionReceipt`, `MotebitState`, `AgentTrustRecord`, and the adapter interfaces). **12 npm packages publish from this monorepo** — 11 Apache-2.0 (the permissive floor, with an explicit patent grant) and 1 BSL-1.1 (the reference runtime).

The BSL line holds at `motebit` (the operator console) and everything inlined into its bundle below it: daemon, MCP server, delegation routing, market integration, federation wiring. **The public promise of `motebit@1.0` is its bundled operator-facing surface — subcommands, flags, exit codes, `~/.motebit/` layout, relay HTTP routes, MCP server tool list — not the internal workspace package graph.**\n\n## Architecture\n\n**51 packages across 7 architectural layers · 5 surfaces + 6 supporting apps · 1 relay + 2 molecule agents + 4 atom providers + 1 glue service.** A pnpm + Turborepo monorepo, TypeScript throughout. The dependency graph is layered and enforced by `pnpm check-deps` — layer violations break the build.\n\n**The permissive / BSL split is algebra vs. judgment.** The Apache-2.0 protocol packages don't just export types — `@motebit/protocol` ships the semiring combinators, graph traversal, and trust composition math that define _how trust computes along a path_. The BSL `@motebit/semiring` package holds the judgment: _which_ semirings Motebit weights, _how_ it builds its live agent graph, _what_ \"best path\" means for this product. A competing relay can reuse the algebra, pick its own judgment, and still interoperate — because the foundation law lives on the permissive floor. The `check-spec-permissive-boundary` CI gate enforces this: every callable referenced in a spec must be exported from a permissive-floor package or explicitly waived as reference-implementation convention.\n\n**Packages** ([`packages/`](packages/)) — 51 packages on a strict layer DAG. Layer 0 is the open protocol surface (Apache-2.0, zero monorepo deps): [`@motebit/protocol`](packages/protocol/), [`@motebit/crypto`](packages/crypto/), [`@motebit/sdk`](packages/sdk/), [`create-motebit`](packages/create-motebit/). Layers 1–6 are BSL engines — `runtime`, `ai-core`, `memory-graph`, `policy`, `semiring`, `render-engine`, `mcp-server`/`mcp-client`, `sync-engine`, `market`, `wallet-solana`, `core-identity`, `encryption`, and the rest of the interior machinery.\n\n**Surfaces** ([`apps/`](apps/)) — Five user-facing (`web`, `cli`, `desktop`, `mobile`, `spatial`) and four supporting (`admin` dashboard, `identity` viewer, `docs` site, `vscode` extension).\n\n**Marketplace** ([`services/`](services/)) — 9 services in four roles:\n\n- **The relay** — `api` (sync, settlement, federation, 5-tier rate limiting, the only piece with legitimate centralization)\n- **Molecules** — agents that reason and compose other agents: `research` ($0.25/report, Claude + web search with cryptographic citation chain), `code-review` ($0.50/review, Claude-powered)\n- **Atoms** — stateless capability providers anyone can wrap: `web-search` ($0.05/request), `read-url`, `summarize`, `embed`\n- **Glue** — `proxy` (Vercel edge CORS for the web app)\n\n**Protocol** ([`spec/`](spec/)) — 26 open specifications, each `motebit/\u003cname\u003e@1.0`: `identity`, `execution-ledger`, `relay-federation`, `relay-transparency`, `market`, `credential`, `settlement`, `auth-token`, `credential-anchor`, `delegation`, `standing-delegation`, `discovery`, `migration`, `dispute`, `agent-settlement-anchor`, `consolidation-receipt`, `device-self-registration`, `goal-lifecycle`, `memory-delta`, `plan-lifecycle`, `computer-use`, `agent-mcp-surface`, `proposals`, `skills`, `skills-registry`, `agent-revocation`. All have a working reference implementation in this repo.\n\n→ Full directory tree, package-by-package descriptions, layer-by-layer breakdown, and data flow: **[docs.motebit.com/docs/operator/architecture](https://docs.motebit.com/docs/operator/architecture)**.\n\n## Specification\n\n\u003e [!NOTE]\n\u003e **Motebit is a protocol first.** All [26 specs](spec/) (Apache-2.0) have a working reference implementation in this repo, and a third party can stand up an interoperating implementation today using only the published specs and the permissive-floor type packages — no permission required. The `motebit.md` identity file is an [open standard](spec/identity-v1.md) verifiable by any tool, with or without the motebit runtime.\n\nA `motebit.md` is YAML frontmatter signed with Ed25519:\n\n```yaml\n---\nspec: motebit/identity@1.0\nmotebit_id: 019d4a9c-3b2e-7f81-9c5a-1f8e3d2a7b4c\nidentity:\n  algorithm: Ed25519\n  public_key: 6f1c8e2b9a4d7f3e8c2b1a5d9f4e3c2b8a7d1f5e3c9b2a8d4f7e1c3b9a5d2f8e\ngovernance:\n  trust_mode: guarded\n  max_risk_auto: R1_DRAFT\n  deny_above: R4_MONEY\nprivacy:\n  default_sensitivity: personal\n  fail_closed: true\n---\n\u003c!-- motebit:sig:motebit-jcs-ed25519-hex-v1:4f3a9c... --\u003e\n```\n\nBeyond these fields: registered devices, memory parameters, optional organizational guardian ([spec](spec/identity-v1.md) §3.3), and key succession history ([spec](spec/identity-v1.md) §3.8). Verify any file with `@motebit/crypto`, no relay required.\n\n## Before you adopt\n\nMotebit is a working protocol and a runnable runtime, but it is not a managed service. A few things to know before depending on it:\n\n- **One operator today.** `relay.motebit.com` is the only production federation peer. Cross-cloud federation is validated end-to-end against motebit-operated staging peers — there is no third-party operator yet. If you run your own relay, you are extending the network, not joining a polycentric one.\n- **No consumer key recovery.** Identity is an Ed25519 keypair you hold. Lose the key and lose the identity (succession requires the prior key to sign the rotation). Enterprise key recovery is an opt-in `guardian` field on the identity file ([spec §3.3](spec/identity-v1.md)) — it is not the default.\n- **Ed25519 today, cryptosuite-agile by design.** Every signed artifact carries an explicit `suite` on the wire. Post-quantum migration (ML-DSA, SLH-DSA) is a registry addition in `@motebit/protocol` plus a dispatch arm in `@motebit/crypto` — not a wire-format break. There is no PQ suite shipped today.\n- **BSL boundary on the runtime.** The 11 Apache-2.0 packages can be used for any purpose, including running a hosted service. The BSL-1.1 `motebit` package is free for personal, educational, research, and internal-business use; offering it as a hosted service or bundling it into a commercial product requires a commercial license. Each BSL version converts to Apache-2.0 four years after release ([LICENSING.md](LICENSING.md)).\n- **Settlement is your jurisdiction's problem.** `--pay-to-address` and the Stripe on-ramp move real money. Tax, AML, and consumer-protection compliance are entirely on the operator running the relay or the agent accepting paid tasks.\n- **Federation is bilateral and fail-closed by design.** Peering with another relay is a deliberate handshake; a misconfigured peer does not silently route. That is the design — it also means there is no automatic peer discovery.\n\nThe protocol surface (specs + Apache-2.0 packages) makes a stronger stability promise than the runtime surface (BSL `motebit` CLI). Build against the protocol if you can; consume the runtime if you want the operator console without writing one.\n\n## Development\n\n```bash\npnpm install           # Node \u003e= 20, pnpm 9.15\npnpm run build         # Build all packages\npnpm run test          # Run all tests\npnpm run typecheck     # Type-check all packages\npnpm run lint          # Lint all packages\n```\n\n## Versioning\n\n12 packages publish to npm — 11 Apache-2.0 (the permissive floor) and 1 BSL-1.1 (the `motebit` reference runtime). They version independently on their own merit (`updateInternalDependencies: \"patch\"`, no fixed or linked groups). Breaking changes to a package's public surface require a major bump on that package.\n\nThe 58 workspace-private packages — `@motebit/runtime`, `@motebit/relay`, `@motebit/ai-core`, `@motebit/memory-graph`, `@motebit/policy`, `@motebit/sync-engine`, and the rest of the interior machinery — exist for source organization and do not publish independently. They carry a sentinel version `0.0.0-private` so the absence of a semver claim is explicit at the source: the only stability promises this repo makes live on the 12 published packages above.\n\nThe Apache-2.0 protocol packages (`@motebit/protocol`, `@motebit/sdk`, `@motebit/crypto`) promise wire-format and type stability independently, gated by `check-api-surface`.\n\n## License\n\nThe **permissive floor** is Apache-2.0 licensed — use it freely, build on it, implement the spec in any language, with an explicit patent grant from every contributor:\n\n- [`spec/`](spec/) — 26 open specs (full list in [Architecture](#architecture))\n- [`packages/protocol/`](packages/protocol/) — network protocol types (identity, receipts, credentials, delegation, settlement, trust algebra)\n- [`packages/crypto/`](packages/crypto/) — sign and verify every Motebit artifact, cryptosuite-agile (zero runtime dependencies)\n- [`packages/sdk/`](packages/sdk/) — developer contract (stable types, adapter interfaces, governance config)\n- [`packages/verifier/`](packages/verifier/) — `verifyFile` / `verifyArtifact` / `formatHuman` helper library\n- [`packages/verify/`](packages/verify/) — `motebit-verify` CLI aggregating the canonical platform leaves with motebit-canonical defaults\n- [`packages/crypto-appattest/`](packages/crypto-appattest/), [`packages/crypto-android-keystore/`](packages/crypto-android-keystore/), [`packages/crypto-tpm/`](packages/crypto-tpm/), [`packages/crypto-webauthn/`](packages/crypto-webauthn/) — canonical hardware-attestation platform verifiers (pinned public trust anchors). The earlier `packages/crypto-play-integrity/` was deprecated 2026-04-26 and removed from the monorepo 2026-05-03 — see `docs/doctrine/hardware-attestation.md` § \"Three architectural categories\" for the structural reason; `crypto-android-keystore` is the canonical Android sovereign-verifiable primitive.\n- [`packages/create-motebit/`](packages/create-motebit/) — scaffold a signed identity or runnable agent service\n- [`packages/github-action/`](packages/github-action/) — GitHub Action for verifying motebit identity files in CI\n\nThe **platform implementation** is [BSL 1.1](LICENSE) — free to use, source-available, converts to Apache-2.0 four years after each version's release. This includes `@motebit/runtime`, all engines, all apps, and all services. Both license families converge to a single Apache-2.0 posture at the Change Date. See [LICENSING.md](LICENSING.md) for the full boundary test and convergence story.\n\nThe **state a relay accumulates** — trust graph, federation routing, signed execution audit — belongs to whoever runs it. It is not licensed, mirrored, or visible to anyone else. The protocol is open so anyone can interoperate; the implementation is source-available so anyone can run it; the accumulated state is private.\n\n\"Motebit\" is a trademark of Motebit, Inc.
