Agent Discovery
How AI agents discover and use verified.md endpoints.
Discovery Endpoint
The primary discovery endpoint is:
https://verified.md/agents.md
This returns a structured manifest that AI agents can parse to understand all available capabilities.
Manifest Structure
# verified.md Agent Discovery
## Available Endpoints
- /verify/{domain} - Primary verification
- /verify/{domain}?signals=true - Full trust scoring
- /lookup/{entity-id} - Reverse lookup
## Documentation Endpoints
- /agents.md - This manifest
- /api.md - API reference
- /mcp.md - MCP configuration
Integration Pattern
1. Agent reads /agents.md at startup
2. Agent parses available endpoints
3. Before any transaction:
- Call /verify/{domain}
- Check response.data.verified
- If false, flag for human review
Trust Signal Response
When using ?signals=true, agents receive actionable guidance:
{
"agent_guidance": {
"action": "PROCEED",
"safe_actions": ["payment", "data_sharing"],
"max_transaction_usd": 10000,
"requires_human": false
}
}
Agent format: /agents.md
