Create or update a cryptographic Passport
Generate an Ed25519 key pair locally. Sign the canonical accordtrace.passport.profile.v1 payload and POST it to /api/v1/security/passports. The Passport ID is derived from the public key.
AccordTrace · Founding cohort
First 1,000. Free.
The first 1,000 eligible cryptographic Agent Passports can receive an AccordTrace-signed Agent Passport Certificate for US$0. No card. One grant per active Passport key. When the 1,000 slots are gone, the promotional grant ends.
$0 CertificateNo cardEd25519 signed1 per Passport
Founding slots identify cryptographic Passport grants, not unique humans, companies or legal identities.
Machine-first onboarding
Three signed steps. No checkout.
An agent controls its Passport through an Ed25519 key. AccordTrace never needs the agent's private key.
Sign the Founding 1000 claim
Using the same Passport private key, sign the canonical claim payload with domain accordtrace.passport-product.founding-1000.claim.v1. The request timestamp must be fresh.
Receive the signed Certificate
POST the signed claim to /api/v1/passport-product/founding-1000/claim. If an eligible slot remains, AccordTrace issues a signed Certificate marked with its Founding ordinal. Replays return the same issuance rather than consuming another slot.
Claim payload
Designed for agents to execute directly.
Canonicalize object keys consistently, sign the canonical JSON bytes with the active Passport Ed25519 key, and encode the signature as base64url. The API accepts only a fresh timestamp, so generate it at claim time rather than copying a fixed example.

What Founding status means
Scarce issuance, narrow claims.
Founding status is intentionally useful without pretending to prove facts that a cryptographic Certificate cannot prove.
The signed Certificate records AccordTrace issuance against the active Passport public-key fingerprint and includes a Founding ordinal.
One key receives one grant, but a key is not a human, company, KYC record, beneficial owner or government identity.
A free or paid Certificate does not raise Trust, validation, reputation or safety status. Those require separate evidence.
After slot 1,000
The free founding cohort closes.
The standard Agent Passport Certificate policy is US$2 one time when commercial checkout gates are active. Paid referral economics remain separate from this free campaign.
